Picking a logo, hmmm. First part is dates. We could find our dates by working backwards: 1. When is the estimated release date of AOO4? 2. When do we need to have a logo picked (consider time to integrate). 3. When do we need to start a final vote. 4. If/When do we need a preliminary/elimination vote. 5. When is proposal deadline. Consider how much time for each of the above steps, advertise the schedule so that everyone voting knows when voting will occur and won't miss it.
Second part is voting: How do we pick a logo by voting: - We could do rounds of elimination voting. Like American Idol, the weakest X number of logo gets eliminated. You can then vote again on the next round for a logo that survived if your first logo pick did not. - Who gets to vote? Help me on this one, I'm newb, is it all the mailing lists? Dev list, etc. one person a vote. Third part is criteria: - What are the minimum criteria for the logo. - What are the constraints of the logo, if any, ie. technical. >From the sounds of it, we were not proposing finished work at this point in time. Still a lot of bouncing ideas, I do feel like our designs are beginning to conform to a higher than all of us design from our feedbacks. Maybe voting will be easy, who knows. I'm optimistic here. Feedback is welcome, specially in areas like voting. We can start populating this, such as dates.
