Attachements get stripped (or you missed to attach them).
Do you have a link (you could upload them to your people.a.o home in a 
subdir called public_html)?

That was my first thought, too.
Maybe taking the XMPP logo[1] rainbows and make something feathery out 
of them.

May be we can experiment a little with other things as well, like some
icons or kind of object.
Don't have clear thoughts on what, but yeah may be would work out with
paper and send out something
as soon as I can :-)

Wish I spent time learning Photoshop :-(

Had clicked a cherry flowers in Washigton DC some two years back, and
let me see if I can
create something from them.

Will find them at my link on pbase (see below)

Let me take a few quick lesson from our Web Designer guy here :-)

This is good one to be considered.

Right now lets gather we can, before shortlisting

Have done it in GIMP, needs a lot of rework and refinement, will try
to do it over weekend.

tried a failed attempt to create a logo over the weekend :-(

Had a butterfly pic, and wanted to clip the wings and use them as "V"

Meanwhile will keep trying for some more ideas.

These are good one :-)

Have couple more ideas like how about just "v", something like twitter "t"
or a c big "V" and a small bird on top of it.

I know I miss the speed with which Micheal is working :-(

Just back from Karate classes and its time to work out this logo.
Give me sometime and will be back with the logo :-)

I would do so, but I don't have the right permissions (on the
Mina-Artwork page[1]). If I prepare an archive for the source files
and various logo-sizes could someone else do the upload?

I'm not sure adding the mina logo is a good idea, make the logo less
readable at small size.

That's easier said than done (at least for me :)).

Please take a look at these feathers:

http://stuff.interlinked.org/VysperLogos/vysper_xmpp_play.png

At first I didn't like the combination, but after looking at it for a
while, I think it fits.

This time I did the editing with Gimp, hence the xcf file with
layers[1] if anyone wants to take it further.

Wow, thanks for all your input! :-)

I see what you mean by arranging the feathers like in the XMPP logo.
Can we make it more clear that this is intended to be a play on the XMPP 
  logo by chosing different colors or stylized feathers?

I've been playing around with the logo-ideas, take a look here:
http://stuff.interlinked.org/VysperLogos/

Some of them have a weird border (black or red), this is not intended
and comes from Inkscape (I guess). I used Bitstream Vera Sans for the
text and the feather comes from the Apache Wiki Logo [1].

What do you think?

Cheers,
Michael

There is also
   http://xmpp.org/images/xmpp.svg
which should be easier to inspect about colors etc. than the png.

Alright, V or y.
But we cannot simply forge the xmpp X (I think that's what it is 
intended to be) into a V. That'd be a rip off. Trying to think about how 
to do this intelligently...

Here is the page http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MINA/MINA+Theme

Please don't get Alarmed at MINA logo's :-) I am working on them too.
Trying to complete my
homework before starting the thread with community.

NOTE: Using MINA space temporarily till we get space for Vysper,

I saw this too. Infact, i thought to use colored "V" and the word Vysper

Have been trying use some Logo creation tools, but need to work out a
bit on them.
Our Logo colors must be in sync with our site Color.

ApacheDS is a real good example.
