Hi Sharan,
I like the idea but... some little details jump to my eyes.
If you are new on OFBiz, you may read COFBiz because of the circle...
I think the gradient make the icon too old school. I know that the
Apache feather have a gradient too but it's not the same. You could see
that some breaks in the feather gradient that let's feel it's not a logo
2000s :)
The other problem of the gradient is for printing on paper, it will be
really difficult to have a good colour control when you print without an
expensive printer.
Last point is about the first version (that could be the official), I'm
not really enthusiastic about the number of colours. Gradient + orange +
blue.
However, I like to use the old logo for the new one on the other proposal :)
Thanks for the work, I know that it's always time spent to create a new
logo from an original idea so, even I'm not positive on some details,
the work is good ^^
Julien.

Hi Sharan,
I like the new logo, it looks modern and (for people with a longer
OFBiz history) retro at the same time :-)
Well done!

Hi Everyone
I've got an example of a proposed updated OFBiz logo to share with
everyone.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/download/attachments/61317052/OFBiz%20Logo.png?api=v2
In fact there are two of them, one with the word Apache and one
without. I've uploaded the sample logo here and it's the first one
(i.e. the top line) with the white background that we are looking at.
For those who recognise it – we've gone a bit retro and picked up
this circle icon from the original OFBiz logo when the project first
came to Apache. Instead of using the original blue colour, we've
incorporated the same (orange, red and purple) colour scheme as the
new Apache feather. http://apache.org/
We've also changed the OFBiz lettering to orange as it seemed to go
well with the new Apache colours.
For information we've also included some examples of what it would
look like on different coloured backgrounds with white and black
lettering.
Anyway please take a look and let me have your comments and feedback.
Thanks
Sharan
