Hi Juergen, Here's a mockup of a NXT-Java icon (see attachment). Thoughts?

- What about a leJOS symbol we can use on the front page as well as for whenleJOS boots up on the NXT?
how about a blue J-like rectangle (we used blue in the old logo) with an opening at the upper left (like a rather closed J), slightly rounded in a similar way as the real NXT logo, and with an orange square or rectangle in the middle (hinting at the NXT start button)? Or maybe just a blue J in a similar rounded sans-serif font as in Juan Antonio's current proposal, with an orange square.
- We should use an RCX brick on the right instead of the RCX robot which looks kind of lame.
Yes.
- I'm concerned about splitting the NXT/RCX news sections on the front page because very likely we will have no RCX news in the future. One news sectionis more practical.
I agree, having two main columns would be quite a squeeze (as I said, I like my font a little bigger).
- It would be nice to have slashdot type icons for different news stories (new releases, leJOS in the media, etc...)
Yes, and maybe the distinction NXT vs RCX can be also shown by an icon.
There's also a website designer section on Mindstorms that has lots of icons: http://mindstorms.lego.com/download/default.aspx We should try not to rely on using these sort of things for our design, otherwise we just look like every other website out there.
Yes, see my logo proposal above.
I'm for rendering our own artwork like we did for the current leJOS website, but updating them with new elements from the NXT kit (Juan, I can render these for you if you let me know what you need).
I can also make nice photos of LEGO assemblies in case that helps. Jürgen -- Jürgen Stuber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.jstuber.net/ gnupg key fingerprint = 2767 CA3C 5680 58BA 9A91 23D9 BED6 9A7A AF9E 68B4
