I was hoping we’d come up with some design we all like better so we have something that looks really good when we petition for a change. Then we can say, “we like this better because, a, b, c” and maybe list some concerns and then the original design team can respond to it. But if it looks like e

Re: "Powered By Apache" logo

I think you could get away with moving the stars down a little bit but the more major issue is fixing the kerning, the space between the characters, in the, "Powered by" text. If you know what the font is I can try to recreate it.

Re: "Powered By Apache" logo

That's a difficult one. In the new design, the stars are aligned in the middle, but typographically, the old one is better because 'whitespace' (in this case blackspace) is distributed evenly. You could try do to another tweak in the old design: rotate the stars so that their axe is perpendicula

You are right. I had put a horizontal line wrt one of the star and tried to align both the stars on same line. Unfortunately stars themselves arent aligned and I'm not sure if we can make any changes to the stars(according to apache guidelines). If can, then surely we can make little more modificat

Nice work! But now I've seen it I bet the reason it's not done that way is that the horizontal line between the stars isn't in the middle of the innter circle so that it looks a little misaligned to the logo ? Tom On 13/10/14 10:53, Deepak MS wrote: Here: http://snag.gy/bMc9C.jpg On Mon,

Well, we can¹t go change the outer ring right now, but that doesn¹t mean we can¹t suggest that change. I didn¹t notice until someone pointed it out, but I agree it might look better with the stars lined up horizontally. If a few more folks chime in I will ask. Also note that Apache is a do-ocrac

Hi, Am i the only one here who think the "blank template" should be rotated? I am not a graphic designer, but I think it's looks a little better when the 2 stars are in one line horizontally. This is more "cleaner" and so the text is better aligned. But, according to the guidelines, it's not a
