Oscar Westra van Holthe - Kind commented on AVRO-3554:
------------------------------------------------------
Hi Emma,
Thank you for these beautiful ideas!
I especially like the blob airplane, though perhaps rotated a bit to fly
slightly upward (or maybe that idea is an aesthetic error on my part).
However, looking at small sizes, the origami pigeon is the most distinctive.
Also because many GCP icons have shades of blue. Would that icon still look
good if the green head is more pronounced?

> Key: AVRO-3554
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3554
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Ryan Skraba
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.12.0
>
> Attachments: OldAsmLogo.png, cuttlefish oscar 2.svg, cuttlefish
> oscar.svg
>

> There was a quick discussion with Apache Trademarks along the lines "If it
> ever came to a legal challenge, would we care enough to defend our usage? If
> not, changing it discreetly and voluntarily is the best route."
> The result: we _must_ change our logo this year to some original art.
>
> Criteria for a new logo, as discussed on the mailing list:
> [https://lists.apache.org/thread/m5w7fmkjnrl8m4hlbw8xhzr4v69xg3ml]:
> Must:
> * be unique and not similar to anything “out there”
> * be available in a vector format (SVG) so it can be scaled with full
> accuracy
> Should:
> * show either something of the name (like Beam, Airflow, Ant, Drill) or what
> it does (like Mahout, Bookkeeper, Ratis, Pulsar)
> * have 2 variants: Square/Circle (social media, favicon, etc) and rectangle
> (top banner)
> Could:
> * have the banner logo be the compact logo with the name attached, or more
> elaborate
> Would:
> * have limited colors; at most 5-10 (so like Iceberg, not like Flex with the
> gradients)
>
> _To allow sufficient artistic freedom, we should limit new requirements.
> Instead, please add ideas in the comments._
