It's positively hideous! it's also cheesy, silly and just too
obvious. And it doesn't have a feather, nor does it use the apache
colors, nothing.
The other logo I once did for the ASF was this one:
http://excalibur.apache.org/logo.gif
which suffers from all the same problems (except it has even *less*
color). I'm the world's worst graphic designer. I'm good at writing
long e-mails though, does that help?
Heh. I played some more and did another one. I think it looks a bit
less depressing now :-)
cheers,
