Hi All,
A new set of Trafodion logo options are attached, taking account of much of the input that I received.
One of these is a clear winner for me personally, but I submit them for your consideration and hope we can zero in on one of them. (Or perhaps two for a run-off.)
By the way, all logos use Google fonts, including the earlier front runner option 4 where I found a comparable google font to use, now named option 4g.
Cheers, Ken

Thanks Gunnar,
I can see it now. I like dragon very much, but hope it is not too popular.
I think we also think about whale before?
The meaning behind whale is: it is the biggest animal on the earth , and real ☺
And Hadoop projects seem to use cute animals (Hive, Hadoop). Maybe we can draw a baby dragon?
And most people like sky blue? I used to have black or golden dragon as my favorite ☺
My 2 cents.
Overall, I like this logo, it is already good enough for me. It shows to me how powerful Trafodion is. I know it is hard to get consensus for this kind of design.

Hi,
Based on the input from several people in this thread, I'd like to propose the following draft as a candidate: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxlwNhWxn8iTQV85eDlyc0RxWGc
I'm hoping that Ken, Sandhya, or someone else can make a real version for consideration rather than my PowerPoint hack. It needs a bit of work on the gray hue (s;lightly darker IMO), size of dragon, and alignment but that's better done in a real designer program. The font was downloaded from Google Fonts: Telex Regular.
As mentioned, the draft fits into the overall website well: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxlwNhWxn8iTczNMLTRjYUVXSkE and I'm sure it'll meet the other criteria, too.
Thanks,
Gunnar

I wonder if we could also consider a mod to option 4 where only the dragon and the word trafodion are present. See the two images attached.
I sampled a couple apache project logs and found they do not have the word APACHE in their logos (e.g., HIVE, MONGODB, AVRO, SPARK).
With this approach, it is possible to put the Trafodion logo into the "power by Apache" logo, see URL here<http://www.apache.org/foundation/press/kit/>, without the duplication of "Apache".
It also simplifies the design and allows a good focus.

I'll make a stab at changing the font and size relative to the dragon and post another version of that.
Agree that separating the dragon from the name/font makes sense.

On the writing, cursive is hard to read, so I'm up for replacing it separately. Maybe we vote on each separately (as Sandhya and Amanda did)?
Voting separately is a good idea. Having engineers vote on 'designs' is always a tough one. Sounds like folks like the dragon but not the cursive... so suggest splitting out what we vote on so at least the dragon carries.

Subject: Logo Proposal
Hi All,
Apache Trafodion needs a logo.
I believe there was some discussion about a logo for Trafodion quite some time ago, but we never really resolved it. In the very early days of Trafodion, before becoming an Apache project (incubating) I devised a logo that leveraged the Welsh connection of the project name, and that was a simple cute dragon.
I now have a much improved version of that original logo and propose that we use this as the official Trafodion logo going forward.
Dragon standalone - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9c1EkzsNnw4QmttYnBzZDdFSTQ/view?usp=sharing
Trafodion name & dragon - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9c1EkzsNnw4Y3RRdVQwb0owSFU/view?usp=sharing
I’m not thrilled with the font choice for “Trafodion” – the o’s and a’s look too similar.
Thoughts? Should we vote on this?
Cheers, Ken

+1 for the dragon as well. We used to have an informal logo with another
somewhat cursive font, it shows in one of the carousel pictures on the
trafodion.apache.org site. That might be better (although still not my
favorite).

I'll make a stab at changing the font and size relative to the dragon and
post another version of that.
Agree that separating the dragon from the name/font makes sense.

On the writing, cursive is hard to read, so I'm up for replacing it
separately. Maybe we vote on each separately (as Sandhya and Amanda did)?
Voting separately is a good idea. Having engineers vote on 'designs' is
always a tough one. Sounds like folks like the dragon but not the
cursive... so suggest splitting out what we vote on so at least the dragon
carries.

The Trafodion cursive writing and color -1. IMHO we need to rework the
writing for sure and try various colors. It’s looking cluttered and
complicated with the cursive.

Hi,
I like both. I do agree that the font for “Trafodion” makes a’s and o’s too
much alike. Would be nice to switch to another font that doesn’t have that
issue.

*Subject:* Logo Proposal
Hi All,
Apache Trafodion needs a logo.
I believe there was some discussion about a logo for Trafodion quite some
time ago, but we never really resolved it. In the very early days of
Trafodion, before becoming an Apache project (incubating) I devised a logo
that leveraged the Welsh connection of the project name, and that was a
simple cute dragon.
I now have a much improved version of that original logo and propose that
we use this as the official Trafodion logo going forward.
Dragon standalone -

Trafodion name & dragon -
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9c1EkzsNnw4Y3RRdVQwb0owSFU/view?usp=sharing
I’m not thrilled with the font choice for “Trafodion” – the o’s and a’s
look too similar.
Thoughts? Should we vote on this?
Cheers, Ken
