Luckily the same goes for me, all my favorites are still in :)<br>Tough they are nearly all different ones:<br><br>My choices and what comes to my mind when looking at them (in order of preferation):<br><br>1. http://www.flickr.com/photos/54316230@N06/5141934927/<br>All
the smalls things are needed to put together to create something good.
This logo expresses it perfectly for me. Also I like how it looks with
text, as logo only, as icon and so on. Also looks like an instant
classic and timeless. <br><br>2. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ofaurax/5127775007/<br>Timeless, modern, simple. <br><br>3. http://www.flickr.com/photos/54316230@N06/5063070488/<br>Heading in the right direction, we know where to go and what our goals are.<br><br>4. http://www.flickr.com/photos/54240048@N08/5013673327/<br>Flames
are dynamic, always changing. In connection with linux it lets me think
of a bleeding edge distro. Nice colors, but don't like the font.<br><br>Kind regards,<br>Enrico<br><br>> Date: Mon, 29 Nov 2010 22:01:14 -0500<br>> From: andr55@laposte.net<br>> To: mageia-discuss@mageia.org<br>> Subject: Re: [Mageia-discuss] Logo proposals discussion<br>> <br>> <br>> Romain d'Alverny a écrit :<br>> > ...<br>> > Step 1. already occurred:<br>> > ... first short list of 77 files:http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/mgared/<br>> ><br>> > Step 2. is the reason of this mail. 77 is still a lot,<br>> > ... we prefer to start the discussion now.<br>> > ...<br>> > We are Thursday Nov. 18th. That makes the public discussion open until<br>> > Wednesday Nov. 24th.<br>> ><br>> (I got a second identical message - this time it must be for mgaorange)<br>> <br>> Luckily, my red list choices are still in the orange list :)<br>> So I mostly restate what I said then :<br>> <br>> First of all, I think that despite the guidelines, "Linux" should <br>> usually be included with the logo and "Mageia", if not an integral part <br>> of the logo.<br>> After all, we are promoting/presenting the Mageia variety of Linux.<br>> I like putting "mageia" in lower case - except maybe the "m" - and <br>> putting "LINUX" in small caps below, to the right of the "g".<br>> <br>> My preferences, in approximate order are :<br>> 1) <http://www.flickr.com/photos/42998910@N02/5078260989/><br>> mageia_variations by gejobj.<br>> These are 11 variations (by colour/font) of the same logo.<br>> These are based on <br>> <http://www.flickr.com/photos/42998910@N02/5012718103/> marisa_mageia_v2 <br>> by the same designer, also on the selection list.<br>> A cube showing 3 faces, forming an "M" below and an "L" above, with <br>> "Mageia" to the right, and a small "Linux" below to the right of the "g".<br>> My prefered colour scheme is column 2 row 2. (blue+green "M", orange <br>> "L", violet "Linux")<br>> My prefered font for "mageia" is column 2 row 4 (last), due to open "g" <br>> (simpler) and "a" (not easily confused with "o").<br>> For "Linux" it is column 1 row 7 (last), non-serif proportional small caps.<br>> ----<br>> <br>> 2) <http://www.flickr.com/photos/ennael/5021614786/><br>> mageia_ftizzoni05 by ennael, from F. Tizzoni.<br>> An "M" formed of 4 oblique rectangles, 2 tones of violet, 2 tones of <br>> orange, with "Mageia" below to the right, an orange dot on the "i".<br>> Very distinctive.<br>> For colours, the orange is very nice. Maybe the violet could be light <br>> green or blue-green instead ?<br>> The font is ok, except I would use an open "a", to avoid confusion with "o".<br>> (This was listed as my 4th choice last time, because it had been removed <br>> from the MageiaRed pages.)<br>> ----<br>> <br>> 3) <http://www.flickr.com/photos/54316230@N06/5063070488/><br>> mageia7_1-01 by alexn83<br>> compass with "Mageia" to the right.<br>> I would use the "M" on the simpler dial above, oriented to NE so as to <br>> hide the points NE and SW. This simpler image should scale better.<br>> I would also make the circle regular.<br>> These changes should make it more easily recognisable in different <br>> contexts as well.<br>> And without the direction letters, multilingual :)<br>> <br>> For the font I would use a sans-serif proportional, with the "a"s open <br>> to the left, to be more readable.<br>> I would apply this font to the "M" on the compass as well.<br>> And no colour gradiant in the font. (Leave that to the image.)<br>> The colours go well together.<br>> Note that this proposal seems very similar to another computer logo that <br>> I've seen in the past, but I can't place it.<br>> ----<br>> <br>> 4) <http://www.flickr.com/photos/55329486@N03/5134846325/><br>> mageia_logo_6 by sisopetron<br>> Mageia in black with a green star for point of the "i", surrounded, in <br>> background, by 5 circles, filled in progressively lighter blue.<br>> The 5 spheres representing 5 continents ?<br>> The font is ok, except I would use an open "a", to avoid confusion with "o".<br>> The green star would be better reduced in size - so as to not overlap <br>> the letters. The green makes a very nice accent.<br>> The version with green-blue instead of blue in the spheres looks also <br>> very nice.<br>> ----<br>> <br>> my 2 cents :)<br>> <br>> - André<br>> <br>> <br>> <br> </body>
