hi the word cloud thing is a bit tricky... if it is well readable, it doesn't look very good, and if it looks good you can't really read it^^
i tried to have a a bit of both in the new version. http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Libo-challengecontinues-banner-by-tobias.png the space between the words is bigger now, and different for every word. this improves the "word cloud impression" a bit, but it is still readable. i hope the space between "donate now" and the document symbol is big enough now;) Am Sonntag, den 27.02.2011, 00:38 +0100 schrieb Bernhard Dippold: > Tobias Bernard schrieb: > > ok, i've reworked the banner, trying to consider all your suggestions, > > but i didn't understand what's wrong with the spacing (point one in the > > guidelines) > > The distance of the logo (in your case the symbol at the bottom of the > banner) to every graphical element outside the logo shouldn't be less > than half the width of the symbol. > > As the symbol reached nearly the borders of the banner, elements put > beside the banner could have compromised the symbol - reducing the > visual impression we want to achieve with our logo and it's elements. > > But in your new version (I add the link again: > http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Libo-challengecontinues-banner-by-tobias.png) > > this is much better!
