Re: [birt-dev] New BIRT Logo
|
All,
I want to stress that these comments
are purely personal, not a pronouncement by the Executive
Director.
- The Eclipse Foundation regularly helps projects create and
select a logo by working with professional graphics designers.
Please contact EMO@ if you are interested in this assistance.
- It has been our experience that engaging the community as a
whole in selecting a logo is valuable in and of itself.
Based on the above, you may wish to step back and focus on the
project's community process for creating and selecting a new
project logo, rather than debating the merits of any specific
design at this point.
Please feel free to completely ignore
me :)

I’ve got a font editor and I aligned the

Here is the result

With "wobbly" I meant that the text does
not fit in the logo box. Some letters are higher than
others.
Thanks für the feedback, that helps… J
1.)
The font I used is as it is (wobbly
etc.). I was looking for a font with rounded ends. I
will choose another one. If you have any suggestion
it is welcome.
2.)
The lower “I” and the “I” in red shall
make clear that BIRT is not only a reporting, but
also a BI tool. Most people I know associate BIRT
with an old fashioned reporting tool for lists… The
Bi and the RT should be read each for themselves and
both together. In question of trade mark it must be
distinguished from other words like “bird” or other
marks. There is no word written like “BiRT” this
should make the mark more “safe”.
3.)
The red shall also be a link between
the picture and the word part of the logo. The green
shall set off the word BIRT from the image, so that
both are recognizable by themselves.
4.)
I looked at several other project logos
and many of them, not even the present logo of BIRT,
links to Eclipse. Never the less, I see different
possibilities if this is a wish or need, I will make
a suggestion.

Business
Intelligence Reporting Tool is very specific and
contains all the keywords a designer needs. I'm
not too worried that designers can't understand
what we do.
However,
I'd rather keep it in our own hands if possible.
I
think it's a good start but it needs some work:
*
I like the graphic, it is suited for icons and
stuff
*
The letters are a bit wobbly (see the box I
drew)
*
Why is the i lower case and red, why are the
other letters green? What is the idea?
*
What is the link to Eclipse? Maybe we can use
the colors or do something with the logo
