Results from AOO 4.0 Logo Poll
The survey ran for a week,and received over 5000 responses. I wrote
up the results, along with some charts, and put them here:
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/
It is rather long and detailed, so I'll take a subset of that content
and spin it into a blog post over the next week or two.
If there is an approach to analysis that I missed, let me know. It is
easy for me to create additional tables or charts.
If any designer wants to receive the user comments on their logo let
me know the logo number and I'll send them to you.
Regards,
-Rob

Thanks for the stats and analysis , I would recommend a "playoff" of the top five and then choose a final two from that group to come up with a definitive selection.

great joke :-), it would be straight forward to chose the logo with the
most strong dislike votes.

The 37th Logo looks great, signaling a shift from traditional blue to red.
Red signifies, hot, go ahead. (Our traffic signals have wrong color
scheme. Red should be for Go and green should be for cool down and stay)
Good effort by our team

I can set up a page to compile the voting stats etc. If I had been able to participate more actively earlier I could had provided one for the larger logo voting and assessment.
I can have it ready by 10 pm EDT USA if you like Rob? Please advise.
You are the ringleader of this effort please provide some guidance and I can knock it out.

I've updated the report to include links to the comments received for
the top scoring logos.
You can find links at the end of the report:
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/
Or here:
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/34.txt
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/36.txt
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/5.txt
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/28.txt
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/12.txt
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/13.txt
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/31.txt
Next steps? As far as the survey goes, I think I'm done. We have a
heap of data. I tried to make some sense of it. But it now is for
the designers to take all this feedback and create one or more revised
designs. Of the top scoring logos, two were from Kevin Grignon, one
from Samer Mansour, two from Michael Acevedo and one from someone I
haven't seen on the mailing list, but whose entry on the wiki was from
"Chris R."
Maybe it makes sense in the next round to aim for one design per
designer? If so, we can probably narrow it down to 3 or 4 choices,
which we can either poll users again for, or just have a vote of
project participants.
There isn't much time yet, so could I suggest we aim for having the
revisions done for next Friday, May 10th? Aim for 400 pixels wide,
PNG with white or transparent background.
Regards,
-Rob

Re: Results from AOO 4.0 Logo Poll
Posted by Michael Acevedo <ve...@gmail.com>.
Saw the feedback on proposals 12 and 13, I will put the capitals in the
word OpenOffice and look how can I improve the positioning of the Apache
name. I was hoping that the non-capitalized version would gain traction
given that part of the inspiration was drawn from when I write
www.openoffice.org on my browser address bar...
When would the amended logo be needed?

We see support requests in blog comments as well, even if they are
totally unrelated to the topic of the post. But a support request in
a survey?! That is crazy.

Maybe create a new wiki page for the revised logos? It would also be
good to discuss what you think the comments actually say, in
aggregate. I saw a lot of contradictory opinions. But there were
some common things that I saw in comments on many of the logos, and I
hope we agree that:
1) If the logo contains the name of the product (the wordmark) it must
be "Apache OpenOffice"
2) The logo may optionally contain the version number ("4" or "4.0")
but if so it must be easy to update this number is the source file.
But it is perfectly fine to have
3) Including the trademark symbol (™) is recommended. This could be
part of the design, or something in the border, like Starbucks does:

Re: Results from AOO 4.0 Logo Poll

I've updated the report to include links to the comments received for
the top scoring logos.
You can find links at the end of the report:
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/
Or here:

http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/31.txt
Next steps? As far as the survey goes, I think I'm done. We have a
heap of data. I tried to make some sense of it. But it now is for
the designers to take all this feedback and create one or more revised
designs. Of the top scoring logos, two were from Kevin Grignon, one
from Samer Mansour, two from Michael Acevedo and one from someone I
haven't seen on the mailing list, but whose entry on the wiki was from
"Chris R."
Maybe it makes sense in the next round to aim for one design per
designer? If so, we can probably narrow it down to 3 or 4 choices,
which we can either poll users again for, or just have a vote of
project participants.
There isn't much time yet, so could I suggest we aim for having the
revisions done for next Friday, May 10th? Aim for 400 pixels wide,
PNG with white or transparent background.

It wasn't a vote. It was an opinion poll. We ran for over a week and
received over 5000 responses. I'm sorry we missed your entry.

If you recall, we already changed the brand in AOO 3.4. It was called
OpenOffice.org previously. With the move to Apache the name was
changed to Apache OpenOffice. So OO 3.4 had a new logo. AOO 4.0 is
a major release and it makes sense to refresh the logo here as well.

Again, we already changed the logo in AOO 3.4. Was that a disaster?
The comparison with Coca-Cola is not a very good one. They have
nearly 100% recognition globally. We have maybe 10% name recognition.
And Coke is changing their brand elements constantly. Look at their
cans, for example. And then look at Microsoft Office, and how they
constantly refresh their logo.
And remember, the Coke logo is old enough to have a classic look.
Our design doesn't look classic. It doesn't have that timeless
elegance. It just looks old. There is a difference.

Again, we changed the logo in AOO 3.4. With a AOO 4.0 release we'll
change it again. How big or small the change is -- that remains to be
seen. At the very least we need to remove the "3.4" from it, right?

I personally wouldn't lose any time redesigning the visual identity UNLESS
the new design is clearly superior with the old one, and there's concensus
that there's SOMETHING WRONG with the old one to begin with.
You don't see corporations changing their logos very much, if at all,
sometimes, it can have disastrous results. Why change something has very
positive brand recognition?.
If it's a minor restyling, maybe, but even small changes can have
disastrous results.
Think New Coke
Of couse, I'm the minority in this view and if you've gone so far I suspect
you're going to change it anyway.

Thanks for the stats and analysis , I would recommend a "playoff" of the top five and then choose a final two from that group to come up with a definitive selection.

Subject: Results from AOO 4.0 Logo Poll
The survey ran for a week,and received over 5000 responses. I wrote
up the results, along with some charts, and put them here:
http://survey.openoffice.org/reports/aoo40-logo-poll/
It is rather long and detailed, so I'll take a subset of that content
and spin it into a blog post over the next week or two.
If there is an approach to analysis that I missed, let me know. It is
easy for me to create additional tables or charts.
If any designer wants to receive the user comments on their logo let
me know the logo number and I'll send them to you.

Next steps? As far as the survey goes, I think I'm done. We have a
heap of data. I tried to make some sense of it. But it now is for
the designers to take all this feedback and create one or more revised
designs. Of the top scoring logos, two were from Kevin Grignon, one
from Samer Mansour, two from Michael Acevedo and one from someone I
haven't seen on the mailing list, but whose entry on the wiki was from
"Chris R."
Maybe it makes sense in the next round to aim for one design per
designer? If so, we can probably narrow it down to 3 or 4 choices,
which we can either poll users again for, or just have a vote of
project participants.
There isn't much time yet, so could I suggest we aim for having the
revisions done for next Friday, May 10th? Aim for 400 pixels wide,
PNG with white or transparent background.

Thanks. I made those changes.

I've read through the comments on the most disliked logos, and I can
say there is very little constructive feedback there. Much of it is
crude attempts at humor, but it often borders on ridicule or crosses
over into outright profanity. I'd hesitate to publish anonymous
comments that would, if posted by any of us, be outside of the list's
conduct guidelines.
On the other hand I'm happy to share comments on any logo via private
email to anyone who is interested in seeing the detailed comments.

Getting a feel for how to make changes directly. In the meantime...
1st para: "whether the respondant was current user" -> "whether the
respondant was a current user"
"80's or 90's" -> "80s or 90s"
"5=Strongly Dislike" -> "5=Strongly Like" (2 places)
"shows, there are a few logos" -> "shows, while there are a few logos"
or
"users, at the top of the scale" -> "users, while at the top of the scale"
or possibly
"users, at the top of the scale" -> "users; at the top of the scale"
An afterthought...Would it be worth seeing the comments for some of the
other logos too? Especially, perhaps, for those that hit high on the
Strongly Dislike?
