Re: Tapestry 5 Logo
Interestingly, the feedback I've been seeing most has been "stay with
the Unicorn", which surprises me.

If Ben offers, why not try it? Good designers can easily and quickly
come up with great variations that poor, near color-blind engineers
(I'm one of those) cannot even think of. Refining the existing logo is
quite different from choosing an entirely new logo. If after that,
community decides to keep the current logo as is, no harm done.

Personally I'd be happy if we could somehow convert the "tapestry" lettering in the banner to a free
font and create a new banner with that font. The current one isn't freely available and thus can't
be used anywhere else, e.g. for paragraph headings.

We could ask our designer if she could come up with some variations on
the unicorn. We're fine with coming up with new concepts, variations,
or just leaving the logo as-is. The intent was to offer some designer
time to thank Howard for the recent work he has done for our company,
as well as the larger Tapestry community for the wonderful framework.
It's not a problem if you guys would rather stick with what you've
got.

Whether you like unicorn or not is the matter of taste. There is a bunch of
people hating it. Another fraction of users loves it. Thus you will never
reach a consensus. I believe we should keep the unicorn because it has a
strong recognition value and that is (imho) the only one purpose of a logo.
Maybe a slight redesign of the unicorn would be good. Maybe be could replace
the green color by another one but we should keep Tapestry's identity.

I like the unicorn as well - also it is widely used. My thinking is
that we should keep this known identifier.
