I would still recommend checking out the various logo suggestions out there.
The people behind them are passionate and professional, I don't think we
know better than them.

See Wikipedia under: Nemo and The Nautilus:
Emblem
His emblem, as given in a description of the flag he raised when
claiming [1]Antarctica, is a large golden N on a black field. The
motto
of the Nautilus was Mobilis in mobili, which may be roughly translated
from Latin as, moving amidst mobility, moving within the moving
element, or changing in the changes.

Subject: Re: [mer-general] [NEMO] Social presence and branding
I second the motion to pick a logo, so that branding can be based on
it. We also need a paragraph which describes the philosophy of nemo
branding and a choice of colors.
Some things to stir up some creative thinking.
How do we want nemo to feel? Serious, playful, cute, minimal?
Nemo already has a variation of colors in the application title bars
(and qt components). Thus there isn't a dominant nemo color.
The darko theme plays with very subtle gradients, and shallow 3D
effects. Low contrast textures go very well with this design style.
Mer, nemo, are sea themed names and obviously blue is the first thing
that comes to mind.
Would we like to see nemo in high, mid or low end devices? Or all?
Should marketing material look premium, or accessible to all?
That is all that comes to my mind right now, but more of these generic
questions always help when creating a brand, so if you got one shoot
it, even if it seems obvious, or trivial.

It would also be nice to finally pick an official logo.

Will follow up during the weekend most prolly.
* Create page design (banner and profile images)
Re-use existing Nemo resources from the Mer Artwork Repo [1]
ACTION: Sivan Greenberg(sivang) to lead this
Ditto, weekend to investigate. Regarding the banner, this will be used
as well for social networks id's or more to share as an 'ad' to spread
the word about Nemo/Mer ? Also, I think it is wise to create presences
for both Nemo and Mer in separation for all networks, but perhaps Mer
will be better served in technical oriented one where as Nemo could
benefit more from more relaxed networks like Facebook for fan pages
etc? (sorry if we've had this discussion before, I'd like to recoup)
Best and thanks!
