Airavata LOGO feedback

[Suresh Marru <sm...@apache.org>]

Hi All,

We had some good contribution of Logo Ideas and it will be nice to keep this feedback thread going and converge on a logo and immediate also update the website.

Please comment on the JIRA - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-1847 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-1847>

The direct link to log contributions from Shiva are at - https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12767120/Airavata%20Logos%20-%20By%20Shivika.pdf <https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12767120/Airavata%20Logos%20-%20By%20Shivika.pdf>

To me the motivation is not so much of the logo, but the website really needs an update, in terms of content, responsiveness and general face lifting. Lets start with Logo and immediately draft up a website and roll something out.
