Over a year ago, SourceForge had a designer work on some ideas for an Allura logo, although we never followed through to share it with the community and have this discussion. Here are links to the two results of that. Favicon size and original .ai and .psd files are available too. https://www.dropbox.com/s/rbme3ucebcstl9t/256.png https://www.dropbox.com/s/138245rolts1ozx/allura-256.png They are fairly abstract. I think the one without the lightning bolt is nice, but I'm not particularly attached to it. Regarding anvils, I am not real excited about that concept. "Forge" seems like a bit of a dated term, not just for physical forges but software forges too. I normally describe Allura as project hosting, not a forge. I like the ideas & designs Nick proposed. The connectedness of molecules is a nice idea. I don't know about having the letter 'a' in the logo though. -- Dave Brondsema : [email protected] http://www.brondsema.net : personal http://www.splike.com : programming <><
