As simple user I must say I have always needed Mandriva to look a bit geek-er :D<br>I mean, some look to make it get out of the line of other linux distros.<br>A good logo and a good look (in KDE also) are needed.<br>Please take the time, do not decide on the rush, these are sometimes most important things in the eye of the newbies and unexperienced users in order to gain them.<br>
... the stability is well known...<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Sep 23, 2010 at 2:18 PM, Farfouille <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:farfouille64@free.fr">farfouille64@free.fr</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

Decisions need to be made with regard to pallett and style. Graphic artists<br>
and Marketing will need a style manual first before there is a decision about<br>
the logo. To do that there needs to be an identifying of target market<br>
because different pallets appeal to different demographics and engender<br>
different reactions. We need to identify the sort of emotions we want to<br>
engender in that target market.<br>
<br>
We need to go to the market determined to succeed, so that when the world<br>
hears Linux they see and think and feel Mageia. Choosing logos and pallets<br>
and marketing materials is not something you leave to a lottery.<br>

That's what we need and what Mandriva lacked all the time : a marketing expert<br>
Thx for bringing this topic to a professional level.<br>
<br>
I do not regard the current work as minor, pls don't get me wrong.<br>
There are some nice looking ones, no doubt. But for a project logo for<br>
a worldwide player (even if not in the business world) it needs a bit<br>
more professionality in the whole process.<br>

Completely agree with Graham and Wolfgang. Despite I'm far from being a marketing guy, my profesionnal experience taught me<br>
that marketing stuff is quite as important as technical one (hey not as much, I'm still a tech guy ;) )<br>
