Re: [fpc-pascal] Proposal for new Free Pascal logo

My preference goes to the profile (on the animation) than on the tatoo-like 
face of the cheeta.

single visual identity to distinguish them from other programming communities. I've seen it with 
many other communities, such as Swift, Python, Kotlin, etc.
Unfortunately, I don't see Pascal language –especially Free Pascal– to have a such logo. 
Yes, I know the FPC's official site got a running cheetah (a .gif file) named as logo. 
But, I don't think an animated picture is appropriate to be used as a logo. A logo should 
be simple, unique, recognizable and "iconizable" image.
So, I propose a new logo for Free Pascal. It's a simple cheetah's head. The 
proposed logo in various sizes (for icon) can be looked at here: 
https://pak.lebah.web.id/fpc/ I also attach the logo as a .png file, in case 
someone can't open my website.
If this proposal is accepted, perhaps it's time to rework the official FPC's 
website, using the new logo. It's time to make Pascal looks more modern, 
because it looks pretty old today. I also think the Lazarus' logo can be made 
better, but that's another discussion for another time.
What do you think?


The logo is very good, and well connected to the tradtion set by the 
animated gif. The alternative would be to use a frame of the animation, 
or similar sideways cheetah, but scaled up so it can have different 
resolutions. But the head is more compact, which speaks in its favor.


I am not sure how bit the *need* is but it doesn't hurt to have an 
official still image logo.

I would get rid of the whiskers.

I like the idea, I would only prefer if the cheetah looks a little bit more 
friendly :) Mainly by
more almond shaped like eyes and visible iris and pupil, I'll send you a 
roughly modified version of
your logo which shows the idea in private.
