Howdy Folks - In case anyone is interested or needs some inspiration as to
how unoriginal you can be with making a logo check out my entry (the lonely

2015-08-04 Thread Dave Corley
Hi all,

So the deadline came and went and unfortunately there was only a single
entry and having a vote with only one option is kind of pointless.

I also contacted a number of people directly who I know are good at this
sort of stuff but several were in the middle of holidays etc.

Given all of that, after chatting to a few on the best way to proceed, the
logo competition closing date is going to be extended, this time until
Friday 11th Sep.

The next meetup is planned for 12th Sep so it will tie in nicely.

That gives 5 weeks for all you budding artists to come up with a design.

It occurred to me that someone might have a great idea for a logo but not
be able to meet the criteria above, so if you're like me and are
technically challenged (can't think of a better way to describe it) try
drawing and scanning something or even use MS Paint. We can always get a
design refined and tidied up later on if its voted as the favorite.

Best of luck,
Dave

Yup, the osm_ie twitter account is to be the one used.

The osm_irl one was one I setup when putting the site together to get
things working and because I thought it might be a bit more neutral then
the ie account but it seems like that isn't an issue.

I agree. the osm_ie account is older and has a lot more

[OSM-talk-ie] Design competition for a new logo

2015-07-01 Thread Dave Corley
Hi all,

So at the last meetup one thing everyone agreed was that we need to get
moving on forming into a proper entity. Its something that has been spoken
about off an on for the last 2 years and something which we have done
little about.

With that in mind, I spent most of the meetup working on the website
www.openstreetmap.ie and its starting to come together nicely.

Cliff originally designed the logo on that site but pointed out in a recent
email that it was something that was intended as a placeholder only and
that a better logo is probably achievable.

On that basis, using the recent JOSM & Hot logo competition parameters as a
guideline, I'd like to announce a competition for a new logo for
OpenStreetMap Ireland. This logo will primarily be used on the website and
twitter, however in time and with the right resources there's no reason it
wouldn't end up on stickers, t-shirts etc.

On to the competition guidelines

*Competition Rules*

   - The competition is open to anyone. Entrants can be an individual or
   team of people, even a design company
   - Entries must be in SVG format
   - Entry designs should be emailed to my at davecor...@gmail.com as
   attached SVG file(s) with a subject line of "Logo entry from XYZ"
   - Entries must be received before midnight GMT on 17th July 2015
   - Artists can make variations of other public domain artwork, although
   credit must be given where credit is due (and credit will be given when the
   winner is chosen)
   - Individuals are allowed to submit multiple entries, but you are
   encouraged to put work into one or two designs, and no more than five.
   - The winning design will be chosen by a community vote to be held
   during a one week period from 20th-26th July 2015
   - The winning design will be announced on 01st Aug 2015
   - Have fun!

*Design Brief*

*Conceptual Suggestions*

   - Remember, OpenStreetMap Ireland is a cross border group so steer clear
   of a design that is overtly Southern or Northern focused
   - The logo should use the current OpenStreetMap logo as a basis, but
   don't let that constrain your design, some out of the box surreal design
   might look awesome but then something super simple might look just as good
   so don't dismiss anything
   - You may find inspiration among other community designs at
   http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Logos#Logo_design_competitions or the
   JOSM competition enteries https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/LogoContest

*Where will the logo be used?*

   - The twitter account
   - We will also use the logo in the openstreetmap.ie homepage
   - Other electronic materials, proposal documents, presentation slides
   etc.
   - It may get used on printed materials: Letter headings, small stickers
   ('moo.com' size), large stickers (to go on boxes), T-shirts.
   - Any other creative uses by the community promoting OpenStreetMap in
   Ireland.

*Design requirements*

   - *Vector -* The design must be available in a vector format. If you do
   not know how to create SVG, team up with someone who does.
   - *Copyright.* You must be willing and able to waive all rights to your
   design, handing over copyright ownership to OpenStreetMap Ireland, granting
   them a complete and irrevocable right to use, adapt, distribute the work.
   Of course, we intend to allow all use and re-use, but we may at some point
   need to register the design as a trademark. Let's do away with any awkward
   legal barriers up front. We also promise the winning artist(s) will be

   blog, but beyond that we do not guarantee any attribution, and certainly
   don't want to require it for downstream uses.
   - *Square -* We're looking for a logo which fits OK in a square area.
   This is to fit with the twitter requirement and also moo stickers. The logo
   itself doesn't need to be square shape, but should look OK occupying a
   square area. Text can be added in various configurations afterwards (e.g.
   to the right of the logo, to form a horizontal strip for the top of the
   openstreetmap.ie homepage)
