Re: [Vserver] VServer logo? [scanned]

2006-01-10 Thread Veit Wahlich
This seems to become a logo contest... ;)

I suggest to start a regular logo competition with a fixed submission
date for all drafts, a defined submission process (by email/HTTP
upload/etc.) so an overview can be created and rules for a ballot
committee (certain persons? an open community voting? opoll on the ml?)
and the aspects to assess, etc..

I would recommend a 4-stage process:

1. Open community poll, every person may elect its 3 favorites and gives
reasons, why he/she chose those 3 drafts.

2. The top 10 logos are published and get in extensive review and public
opinion, especially also for legal reasons such as trademark right or
evident similarities with other logos or artwork. This should be done by
the whole community.

3. A chosen committee assesses the top 10 logos in respect to defined,
weighted common criteria (personal view on layout, symbolism, recall
value, uniqueness, known possible legal problems, etc.) in consideration
of the results from stage 2.

4. The results of stage 3 are evaluated, if the choice is not clear cut,
a second open discussion on the top candidates may be initiated and
results be evaluated by the committee again.

[5. We have a logo.]

So the question would only be how to choose the committee and how many
members it should have. Persons could either be proposed and elected by
the community or the maintainers pick up persons or you take the hall of
fame people or whatever you can imagine... ;)

 Looks like ;-)

 VW submission date for all drafts, ...
 
 Good idea, and I guess this would bring it up to the best results.
 
 If Herbert agrees, I (as the initiator of this thread, but maybe

go ahead, as long as the logo thing does not add
to my todo list, I'm totally on your side :)

 someone else too?) would also call out a small price in form of Amazon
 (or whatever) credit for the winning three and also a top 10 logos
 voted by the community hall of fame page to honor the best 10 logos,
 which also takes them for free download and usage under GPL (or
 whatever appropriate license, IANAL).
 
 VW a defined submission process (by email/HTTP upload/etc.)
 
 For that I would offer a email to maybe myself and put them online on
 the muh server, adding a vote script from date of last entry date
 up to one week, so there's a clear schedule as well for that.
 
 VW rules for a ballot committee (certain persons? an open community
 VW voting? opoll on the ml?) 
 VW and the aspects to assess, etc..
 
 I'd suggest a first community vote and later a top-10 committee
 choosing the top three out of the 10.
 
 VW I would recommend a 4-stage process:
 VW
 VW 1. Open community poll, every person may elect its 3 favorites and
 VW gives reasons, why he/she chose those 3 drafts.
 
 Yes and no to that - I'd rather think a closed poll/voting with
 showing results only upon end of votes will make it easiest to enable
 anonymous votes without easy ceating upon my logo is not on top
 results ;-)
 
 VW 2. The top 10 logos are published and get in extensive review and
 VW public opinion, especially also for legal reasons such as
 VW trademark right or evident similarities with other logos or
 VW artwork. This should be done by the whole community.
 
 Okay.
 
 VW 3. A chosen committee assesses the top 10 logos in respect to defined,
 VW weighted common criteria (personal view on layout, symbolism, recall
 VW value, uniqueness, known possible legal problems, etc.) in consideration
 VW of the results from stage 2.
 
 VW 4. The results of stage 3 are evaluated, if the choice is not clear cut,
 VW a second open discussion on the top candidates may be initiated and
 VW results be evaluated by the committee again.
 
 Not too complicated? I'd rather let just the top-3 choice up to the
 jury - and would guess a little more who to place into it ;-)
 
 VW [5. We have a logo.]
 
 VW So the question would only be how to choose the committee and how many
 VW members it should have. Persons could either be proposed and elected by
 VW the community or the maintainers pick up persons or you take the hall of
 VW fame people or whatever you can imagine... ;)
 
 I would prefer propsal and election - and for me it has to be clear,
 that neither of the arts is to be in the jury.

everything in this direction has my full support,
as long as I do not have to spend time on it ...
I'm more than willing to comment on the proposals
but the decision should be done by the community

best,
Herbert

Some of my ideas. If the font-rendering looks strange, this is due to my
anti-aliasing (sub-pixel). Please tell me if you have any problems.

 It looks to me a lot like the logo for rackspace.com ... sorry!

Thanks for the hint, Simon!
At least the vertical ones are a little similar to a part of that logo.
And as this is a hosting-provider who does what Linux-VServer often is
used for, it would probarbly be a better idea not to consider to use a
similar logo.

So the three on the left side would be left over. So please just ignore
the ones on the right side for the moment.

hi Alberto,

cool work :)
May I add a suggestion..
The checkmarks look so ordered - perhaps it gives a better impression 
to variate size and position of the checkmarks instead making this kind 
of matrix...


Sorry I am not an artist :)

AC http://homes.stat.unipd.it/mmzz/Vserver/Logo/
AC See README file for explanations...

To point out the circuit source of the S a little more I suggest
rounding up the ends to show like the usual holes and also to change
the colour more to brown to fit the copper look of printed circuits
a little more.

Contrary to Oliver I would leave the v checkmarks as the are, to
show the equality of each VServer within the system, that's what I'd
associate with this.
