Slide Logo

Just for kicks I put together an idea for a logo for Slide. I don't know
that we need one or anything, but I thought it would be a fun project.
I'd appreciate any feedback if someone has time to look at it.

No idea which of the meanings was originally assigned to Slide...

Awesome, thanks.

So were you pointing to any particular definition there? It looks to me
that dia, diapositiv and folie are all similar the meaning I had in
mind. I've been curious for awhile why the name "Slide" was chosen.

Could you clarify this definition for those of use (me) who don't read
German? It looks like Slide can translate many ways into German, but
it's not clear what the meanings are.

A note on the logo: I chose the "photography slide" because I'm not a
very good artist and that shape is really easy to draw :). Also, I liked
the implied meaning better than "playground slide" (my other idea).

Better than the current one (:-).

Has "Slide" not other meaning than "diapositive", may be we found a 
nicer reading for it.
BTW. does anybody know where the "Slide" name comes from?

I think the feather is an Apache logo. I grabbed it from apache.org at
least.

Better than the boring current one, but why is it so similar to the
Jakarta logo?
