Updating the logo
Hi all,
I've looked but can't find a previous vote on this.
The current logo is:
https://apache.org/foundation/press/kit/ApacheFoundation_StyleGuide.pdf
The options for the new logo are:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMMONSSITE-86
Of those, commons_logo.small.png is not consistent with the style guide
(the feather is rotated).
I can't see a difference (apart from size) between commons-logo_new.svg
and commons-logo_new4.svg. Am I missing something?
My intention is, therefore, to put commons-logo_new[1-4].svg onto a wiki
page so they can be viewed side-by-side and then to start a VOTE. I'll
probably do that next week some time to give time for any discussion
required before the vote starts.
Mark

Re: Updating the logo

Hello.
It occurred to me that if the community wants to KISS, the Commons
logo could be something like
/
/ Apache
/ Commons
/
[The slanted line is the feather. Colors, fonts, sizes variants
to be proposed by "Central Services"...]
A simple variation for a component that wants its own logo
would be
/
/ Commons
/
/
with the purpose to add the component's "visual identity" under it
(be it the "base" name as text or something more fancy): e.g.
/
/ Commons
/ lang (TM)
/
WDYT?

We seem to differ in what a logo is/should be. IMO, on
that page, the "logo" is the feather. The combination with
a URL and a name makes a sort of "header" (and it is used
as such on the web page).
Side-note:
I was wary of endless discussions, so I based my version of
the new logo on the foundation's new graphics for the feather
but without changing the main idea of the logo, i.e. I left
Commons's feather in the same position as on that page.
> It clearly associates Commons with Apache.
Well, if according to the new "visual indentity" rules, we must
keep the feather in the same position, that will be Apache's
logo, not Commons'.

I dont understand what you mean by "standalone".
All the components's logos are a combination of the text "Commons"
and something specific to the component (most often just its "base"
name).
What I suggest is basically the same: a combination of the
"Commons" logo (to be provided by Sally's team) and something
each component will have to come up with.
If not for that, what would be a component's logo?
Just the text ("rng", "math", "lang", ...) is fairly boring (and it is *not*
a logo, per the definition I use).

Not if we have a good (TM) logo.
[Conversely, if it looks crowded, that's a sure indication that the logo
is not good.]

See the visual identity document which Mark provided, for all kinds
of uses. A good logo must look fine in all these situations. [And whether
we'll actually ever want to print it on a T-shirt is irrelevant to its quality.]

The current page layout has two logos:
Commons on the left, with the feather.
(This needs to be replaced, as it is ancient)
It clearly associates Commons with Apache.
The component logo is on the right.
Many of these don't have feathers, but are they used stand-alone?

Perhaps, but that might make the logo rather busy.
If the logos are to be used on the website only, then I see no need to
combine them.

If not for the feather, what do we have to identify "Commons"
with Apache?
IMO, the main requirement should be that the logo for Commons
can be easily combined to create logos for the various components.

Agreed.
I think we should point out that we already have some suggestions for
the main logo in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMMONSSITE-86.
If some or all of those are acceptable, then that will save some work.
I don't think we necessarily need to incorporate the feather in the
component logos, but we should ask about that.

Apart from the deprecated (non-secure) URL, they also diverge,
from a graphical POV, from the foundation's visual identity.
Anyways, I don't think it's worth entering a discussion on matters
of taste, especially now that we have been offered help from
"Central Services".
Any objection to accepting Sally's proposal?

Is it better to have the feather not tilted?
Is it better to advertise "https" rather than "http"?
This was just another remark about how the logos which we
were supposed to vote on can (should, IMO) be improved
(on top of the foundation's preferences about the feather to
be kept untouched).
[This discussion is quite pointless since we are going to delegate
that work.]

As I recall, I changed the links to KEYS, hashes and sigs -- which
MUST use https.
That is quite different from using https for websites.

Creating a new logo for Commons that would contain
an outdated element does not make much sense.

Sure. But as they stand, those images contain an objectively
undesirable feature.
[IIRC, you corrected many such uses of "http://".]

Looks like the former uses a seriffed font. The latter does not.

I was under the impression that only the standard orientation is
allowed, but cannot find the docn just now.

I don't think you can use other projects as a guide.
At least one of them is an old logo using the previous version of the feather.
And it's not unknown for projects to copy bad practice - or not think
to find out about the policy.
I suggest you ask on the press@ list.

Is there anything in the "Identity Style Guide" that forbids a project
to use the feather is some other position in its own logo?
This is unrelated to the requirement to not distort the foundation's logo.
Several projects[1] use variations of the feather (including slope, cut,
rotation, stylized, old-fashion, ...).

Right; we stopped short of voting because the discussion
didn't elicit much interest:
https://markmail.org/message/bgbzusjpfulou4pq
I thus went on making logos for the new components:
https://commons.apache.org/rng
https://commons.apache.org/statistics
https://commons.apache.org/numbers
https://commons.apache.org/geometry/
