Re: 20th Birthday Logo | Feedback needed



Hi all! I put a few more concepts in the folder last night, following the flat design theme, and hoping to get across simplicit and professionalism (as Alan was talking about) 
I added:

- an iteration of Jakub's design with the triangles
- some versions of geometric triangles + 20 years strong
- another, simpler, 20 years strong, the 2 overlapping the 0 a bit
- 20 years strong, super flat with the geometric hearts in the background.

These don't have to be "finished"; we can iterate further on these concepts and perfect them more.
Let me know any feedback, but I don't think I can dedicate a lot more time to new concepts, so hopefully one of these works!
I kind of like the theme of the hearts; it goes with the 'strong' in '20 years strong' theme.

Best,
Kate

Thanks, Jakub! I added your mockups to the folder dedicated to 20th birthday logo explorations, along with some of the designs Carla made last year. 

If anyone else has ideas they'd like to submit, please add them to that folder or send them directly to me. 

For those of you who couldn't attend the meeting today, here's what we discussed re: this topic: 

  • Where will these designs be used?: we want to use this design for t-shirts, stickers, and social media. We may also adapt the design for the trivia card we make for a newcomers activity. 

  • Design Notes: We want to stick to an elegant design. In the past, we've had more "fun" designs, and the new direction is towards being elegant and classic. The following may be useful for anyone who is hoping to chime into help with this logo exploration: 

Best, 
Nuritzi

p.s. I'll try to keep NextCloud folder synced up for those who can't access google drive.

Hi everyone,
I tried to doodle some, because I didn't really have any strong ideas around the topic [1] and I found the silhouette of a stylized 20 to form a nice heart. It's an element we used for friends of GNOME and a couple of times in the past in other contexts too.

Here's how it might look in flat color rendering[2].

Personally I would even go as far as not putting GNOME foot on the thing, just relying on the type, color scheme and the stencil nature of the heart to carry the brand.

cheers

After talking to Allan on #engagement, it looks like tomorrow, Friday, June 30th at 16:30 UTC will be better. So, no call today. 

Again, here's the info for those interested in joining: 

Optional dial in number: 857-216-6156
PIN: 62777

Also adding Jakub in case he has any initial feedback on the logo designs. Here's a link to the existing prototypes on Owncloud

Thanks!

Best, 
Nuritzi

p.s. 
Sorry I didn't respond about the Owncloud topic earlier on this thread but I didn't want to derail the conversation away from the logo feedback. I still think that Owncloud is not a good tool for newcomers, or collaborating with newcomers, and I would like to explore other productivity software alternatives. 

If anyone else is interested in the libre productivity software topic, please let me know and you can join Alexandre and me during GUADEC to discuss. In the meantime for expediency's sake, I don't promise to only use Owncloud for the collaborative work that needs to be done before GUADEC, but I will promise to get a freely hosted alternative up later if someone requests it and/or when possible. Also, as mentioned before, I'll make sure the final assets are on Owncloud.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback so far, everyone! 

I'm adding Kate here so she can participate directly. 

Let's do a call tomorrow, Thursday at 16:30 UTC (9:30 am pacific), for anyone who can make it. 

Optional dial in number: 857-216-6156
PIN: 62777

Please respond back to this email if you can participate - if nobody can, we won't do it and will try to keep working via email + #engagement. 

@So Yeon - if you have some ideas of your own, it'd be great to see them!

We need to have something within the next week or so so that we can order merch in time for GUADEC, so thanks for the fast responses here!

Best, 
Nuritzi

I'm a fan of the first two (the birthday graphic and 20years) because of the flatness, as others have already noted. However, I'm not a fan of the font in the "20 years strong". It feels unrelated to the general style guide. And the balloons coming off the y in the first graphic seems a little forced in practice though the idea is clever.

I'd be happy to help iterate new versions and be involved if there was a conversation on how to move forward.

Hi everyone, 

We were hoping to do a 20th birthday logo to print on stickers, t-shirts, and maybe some other merchandise, as well as to post on social media. Here are some options: 20th birthday logos [1]. 

Any initial feedback on them would be helpful. We also welcome new ideas to explore. These would be special 20th birthday items, and separate from things that the GUADEC team would be doing for the regular GUADEC conference. 

Thanks!

Best, 
Nuritzi
