a couple of steps back
hello,
i know this is a bit crazy coming up with now, but i just
got carried away, and as always you can just -1 the idea and
i'll forget about it again.
i really like the new logo (with or without under_score) and
i have tried to integrate it with our design. i found out
why i like it so much - because it looks like a "proper"
logo, even a brand.
so while trying to integrate it i came up with this very
basic idea that seems to work pretty ok with the design, IMHO:
enclosed is two screenshots taken at a 800x600 resolution
(please bear with me - the graphics inside is very quick and
dirty but i guess you can follow the idea)
1) from opera, showing the logo in its normal position,
followed by the breadcrumb followed by the camel (i missed
it), everything underlined to distance the logo/breadcrumb
area from the other content.
2) from nescape 4.75, showing the same but with a fake long
breadcrumb to show that it will scale without destroying the underline
so what you see is in fact html. it looks like it can be
done (ie5 +1, ns6 +1).
i came up with something similar a while ago that people
didn't seem to like, but that involved seprating our then
current logo. the encloed screenshots have THE logo at the
left and the independent camel on the right. we could of
coure just leave the camel out or we could also even
integrate the feather ...
anyway, take a look and see what you think

yup, something like that. Think an artwork with a deep meaning ;0)

I still miss them. I still cannot figure out what the quarter of the
gear is standing for.
When I see it I think of ActiveState :)

are you serious??
do you mean:
lefttmargin - logo - breadcrumb - space ... - feather -
camel - rightmargin?

so you also missed them :)

I like it very much design-wise, very neat! As usual great work, Allan!
Can you please put it online so we can test with different browsers?
(send it to me if you have a problem putting it online)

hmm, to me it looks like this: camel is on the far way from modperl and
we know that camel goes slowly, does it hint anything to you?
how about making a scene implying that the camel "follows" the feather,
leading to mod_perl? just an idea... but your idea is already looking
like a well thought out art.
I guess it's OK then that the logo doesn't have the camel/feather in it.
