Subject: Re: [odf-adoption] Is there an official ODF logo? Proposal included!
Erwin, I really like the RedHat dove logo and second the one on the wikipage. I wanted to see the Dove and ODF as a logo on T-shirts/buttons and stickers on laptops. I felt it put a different energy behind this effort which is needed. It also conveys freedom in the image, along with a document. As the adoption TC, if we are targeting users a logo with energy behind it would be more appropriate. My vote would be in the following order. 1. http://www.spreadopendocument.org/ http://www.redhatmagazine.com/2007/07/25/spread-the-word-share-this-odf-artwork/ 2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument 3. http://blogs.sun.com/dancer/resource/ODF_blue_200-n.png This logo is nice and crisp and clean, but maybe a little too corporate looking. It doesn't doesn't convey the 'open' aspect of this standard as well as the first image does. I don't get any emotional attachment to it as I did the logo with the dove. The reaction I received when I wear the button with the dove logo has been very positive. People have asked me where they can get the button. Just my 2 cents. :-) Zaheda Erwin Tenhumberg wrote: >>> Are there any other opinions? Are there any objections against >>> my ODF logo proposal?
