how about if we make a logo competition for tapestry ?
and poll all developers

For me Tapestry is the most advanced framework to build websites so
why associate to it an oldish picture ?????
Moreover, i'm not so sure a logo should be so complex as a decorated
letter or mythological animal. A logo needs to be printed on papers or
webpages with low resolution. BTW, Tapestry is not Hibernate or EJB3
so I don' t think DB cylinders convey the good picture ...
I think that the logo should remember what Tapestry is :
- a framework at the leading edge of Java technologies (so i would
vote for a "modern" logo).
- a framework for the UI layer (so the loom which generates something
to see is not a bad idea but hard to symbolize).
- the only framework for the UI with a component oriented approach (so
building blocks seems good ... but already used a thousand of times).
- powerfull but usable in RAD (Cognition)
IMHO and by experience, i don't think technical staff are good for
drawing logos. That's to different form our job ... I wouldn't let a
pianist or my baker touch my keyboard ...
Is there anybody who knows an "artist" or someone who work in a com
agency ?

Peter is referring to the "decorated T" idea in my other post.
E.g. The Book of Kells has a pretty stylish 'T': (Ok, not a tapestry
though)

As usual, multiple Nicks cause confusion! ;-)
Anyway, the ideas should come forth now, as there is already a "new
logo".
Peter's idea of decoration with DB cylinders is cool.
Cheers,
Nick.

Yeh, that's cool.
I didn't mean to jump the gun by offering ideas. Apologies if I've
created confusion on the list. I was simply providing ideas because
someone said that criticism without alternative suggestions wasn't
constructive.

I like the "decorated T" idea, like the large beginning letter in
old (or
faux-old) fairy tale books, but with small database cylinders and
keyboards
instead of leaves and TP-5 instead of vines :) Hmm, wish I knew how
to draw
that..
Cheers,
