Hi Adonis,
I agree that a logo should be stylized.
But for me, the shape of the logo (from friday) is too far away from the
shape of the island in my mind.
When I see the logo and there is no "click" in my mind, no connection to
Tobago, when you know what I mean.
I think when you see a logo it should be redolent of something. When I
see the tomahawk logo, I see the connection to an indian.
It is possible make a logo as abstract/stylized like that from friday,
but a little more similar to the island-shape I've sent you yesterday?
Best regards,
Udo

Hi Udo,
In my opinion I think that is not important to be exactly like the
island shape, after all is a stylized logo :)
And I think that is important for a logo to communicate a simple an a
clear idea, in this case an exotic island, actually a common subject
in the Java world.
I taken in consideration the exact shape of the Tobago island when I
redesigned the logo, but in my opinion is not a good candidate for a
logo because is to direct (just a simple 3D island). In my opinion
people likes interesting logos that make them thinking ... they said,
what is the meaning of this logo ... it is this ... or can be this ...
gotcha! , this kind of logos make them to feel smart if they discover
the idea, in my opinion that kind of logos remains deep printed in the
people minds ... and we want this :)
This is only my opinion, after all you are the client, so you will
decide about logo ;)
With respect
Adonis
I think that many Java developers didn't know what is actually the
Tobago shape.

Hi Adonis,
thank you for your effort. The logo looks nice, but in my opinion
it is too far away from the tobago shape. Is it possible, to make
it more like the shape. I've tried to make a sample, but very raw.
Regards
Udo
