Re: [discuss] powered by (and other) logos
Sally,
Can we have the source vector image, so that we can modify?
Two things I'd suggest:
1 - We change the logo that's used in the middle to something that
fits (perhaps just monkey, but I know others have feelings that the
monkey is too "friendly").
2 - Make derivative logos that have words similar to what Giles is suggesting.

Re: [discuss] powered by (and other) logos
Posted by Sally Khudairi <sa...@yahoo.com>.
Thanks, Giles.
We created the logos using what we had. I had put the CloudMonkey in at first when I sent the (volunteer) design team my concepts.
When they were pulling together the logos, they put the full CloudStack logo. I agree it's awkward and illegible.
Other projects that have experienced similar issues have redesigned or fine-tuned their project logos, then added to the "Powered By" band and posted back up on the site. Apache Shindig is the latest to do so http://www.apache.org/foundation/press/kit/poweredBy/pb-shindig
I'm happy to accommodate the PMC/marketing teams however needed.
Cheers,
Sally

Subject: RE: [discuss] powered by (and other) logos
Hi guys
Sorry, I’ve been running around like a crazy-man this week so fell off this thread.
Sally – thanks for getting this idea progressed.
I just looked at the “powered by” for the first time
It looks very professional, but I have one overriding concern (sort of in-line with Chips)
If we take the logo,as is, the ACS logo itself, is actually very small compared with the circle (it has to be to fit in a circle)
Knock on ffect,: the fonts of “powered by” are (guess) 4 x the size of the Cloudstack words
The problem is, if I scale this down to a size that I would use on a website/brochure/etc - the ACS logo is so small its unreadable.
My guess is, this would probably get used at about 25% of its actual size in many places – and at that scale, the ACS logo is a tiny blur of blue & grey
An option would be to just use the monkey – but, IMO, the monkey isn’t well known enough to use without the text. Hadoop may get away with that, but I don’t think we can.
As far as I can see, the options are:
1. Try to come up with an ACS logo that better fits the circle (although I would be loathed to change our logo)
2. Move the project name to the Circle - so that says “powered by Apache [project name]”
3. Rethink this completely
Thoughts ?
Kind Regards
Giles

Hello again!
I think this is the one. Please let me know if it is _not_ the correct file.
With respect to derivative images/logos, I have no issue with the PMC using the black circular "banded" logo as a template/starting point, but I'd prefer that the color was different, just to underscore it is under the CloudStack umbrella. Shades of blue perhaps? (Giles might like that <g>)

Yes, I'll get the vector graphics for you today.
Personally, I like the little CloudMonkey fellow, and actually had that for one of our "test" images during the development process. I think it looked fantastic in the "banded" logo.

Giles,
I agree with your statement. I finally had a chance to look at it myself
and to me the immediate focal point of the update Powered By Apache logo is
the outside, not the project logo itself.
I would recommend option 3 that you proposed. It is very typical for a
Powered By logo to just have the words around the primary logo in some
fashion.

Re: [discuss] powered by (and other) logos
Posted by Sally Khudairi <sa...@yahoo.com>.
Hello again!
I think this is the one. Please let me know if it is _not_ the correct file.
With respect to derivative images/logos, I have no issue with the PMC using the black circular "banded" logo as a template/starting point, but I'd prefer that the color was different, just to underscore it is under the CloudStack umbrella. Shades of blue perhaps? (Giles might like that <g>)
Cheers,
Sally

Thanks, Chip.
Yes, I'll get the vector graphics for you today.
Personally, I like the little CloudMonkey fellow, and actually had that for one of our "test" images during the development process. I think it looked fantastic in the "banded" logo.

Sally,
Can we have the source vector image, so that we can modify?
Two things I'd suggest:
1 - We change the logo that's used in the middle to something that
fits (perhaps just monkey, but I know others have feelings that the
monkey is too "friendly").
2 - Make derivative logos that have words similar to what Giles is suggesting.
