Hi guys,

just a quick comment and clarification regarding printing and logos.
Print-friendly version (vector, CMYK) is crucial to be prepared during logo design process. This includes color and black&white version (on light and dark background).

I must disagree with the comments on that printing is rarely used anymore - few examples include billboards, fair stands, business cards, letterheads and other stationery, and so on. I'm not sure what is the conversation about "flattened" as that may mean perspective, color or position in design terms, so I won't get into that - just wanted to explain that print is crucial part of the logo design :)

Best,
Milos

I agree. And I would add: the project communication, in terms of presence
at events and press coverage, is not yet strong enough to be able to switch
to a totally new logo without leaving many users confused on whether they
installed the real OpenOffice or not. This is my main argument for
preferring a refresh to a complete restart.
+1 this is a very important point, we should in no way confuse our users
!!! openoffice it THE original package, lets keep it that way !

Now, I must say that the flattened orb does not seem more modern or nicer
to me, but probably I'm biased because I've always seen the flattened orb
as the "surrogate" to be used in low-quality prints...
 From a personal perspective I agree with the statement, todays printer can
handle not flattened images, and who prints nowadays (save the rainforest,
buy a tablet) ?
