[pinhole-discussion] WPPD logo
Since the globe has a hole in the center, I see it as representing a PH camera and could thereby be sharp. - Temi From: "Michael Keller" To: Subject: RE: [pinhole-discussion] WPPD Logo List-Post: pinhole-discussion@pinhole.com Date: Sat, 17 Feb 2001 12:01:46 -0500 Reply-To: pinhole-discussion@p at ???

[pinhole-discussion] wppd logo
James, I like the logo but on my PC the center hole does not show clearly. It seems to compete with the colors in the globe itself.Does anyone else find this also. Maybe the globe could be lightened and the "pinhole" in the center colored "black" and then it would show up better. Another thought is that you might want to make the background transparent so that the logo could be used in various places.

Hi all my own preferences: 1) date : every year, last Sunday of April, i.e. in 2001, Sunday April 29 th. 2) Name : World Wide Pinhole Photography Day 3) www site : www.pinholephoto-day.org which remains simple but would be more explicit than www.pinholeday.com . 4) Logo : nice idea, James ! But I think that "Americas centered" earth is a problem and not only a "minor detail" as Guillermo notes. It must be possible to have a more open representation of planet Earth. I also think that it would be best to have a sharper hole, faster to read inside the picture; I like the black-lined hole on Colin Talcroft's page http://www.sonic.net/~talcroft/wppdlogo2.jpg but I think the size of the hole should be a little smaller. With all these messages about WWPPD, don't forget, folks, to take time for pinholing... Cheers from France through a pinhole , Jean

Seems to me that every group that is taking on a global, world wide, international task wants to use a globe of some sort in their logo. Let's go for something pinholy rather than globy.

Hi all, Regarding the WPPD logo, how about using a Mollweide projection map, similar to the one found at: http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/gmt/gmt/doc/html/GMT_Docs/node99.html to represent the "world". Just a thought. Also, I second www.pinholeday.org for the url -- catchy, short, collaborative. In any case, this is a great movement. Thanks all for the inspiration and motivation to get my pinhole act together. Scott Sellers

[pinhole-discussion] I support world pinhole day!
Hi all, It has been a while since I've contributed to the list. I really like the idea of world pinhole day. 1. I vote is support of world pinhole day being the last Sunday in the April - thus, this year, the 29th. 2. I would favor a logo that reflects something pinhole, rather than just the lens pic of the earth. 3. It has been a couple of years since a small group of pinholers in NY area got together - can I suggest that we meet again at MOMA in early April - who knows, we could come up with some ideas for World Pinhole Day! 4. I unfortunately do not have means to help put images on a web site, but I am prepared to help in other ways - I agree that a smaller group from the list sort out the logistics, similar to what was done for swaps, etc. Looking forward to all this to come! Cheers.
Re: [pinhole-discussion] WPPD Logo and Money
Lets hold on a bit. I don't mind paying $13 for the first year, but before we start getting ahead of yourselfs. Remember this might happen this year and then fizzle out next year. How about if I take care of the first year, and then we see what happens. It's been a long time ago but, I did collect $8.00 from the membership when it looked like we were going to have to pay for having a non advertized discussion list. Thanks to Gregg Kemp who came up with the alturnitive that we are all using now. BTW Thanks Greg. I then asked if we wanted to put this and other future funds towards becoming a Contributing member to the Pinhole Resorce. At that time I was hoping to collect between $50-$75 and I would kick in the rest, but all I recivied was $4. To tell you the truth I had forgotten about this until Guy suggested sending me money. The $12 is still in my dresser. Let me know what you all think. James on 2/17/01 12:51 PM, Guy Glorieux at guy.glori...@sympatico.ca wrote: > And I'm OK for that too!

I've been following this thread with interest and am willing to help with money for the name registration as well. I'm glad it seems that April 29th seems to have been settled on as for some reason spring is when my pinhole juices flow. Once summer settles in I seem to gravitate back to lenses.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] WPPD Logo
I thought of that, and it bothers me a bit. I will look around to see if I can find that shows a diffrent part of the earth. Maybe we can have more then one. BTW I got the image from the NASA web site. It is my understanding that NASA does not copyright most of there images, but I have sent a message to them just to make sure. I will let you know when I hear back from them. jk on 2/17/01 12:26 PM, G.Penate at pen...@home.com wrote: > A minor detail about the logo is that it depicts the Americas only.

- Original Message - From: > WWPPD (world wide pinhole photography day) > > or > > what happened to IPPD (International Pinhole Photography Day) I like World Wide Pinhole Photography Day. The WW clearly IMO speaks about the universality of the event and also about that is happening in cyberspace (WORLD WIDE -web-). As for James registering a domain, that can only help to the "seriousness" of the event. As for the name, I don't think it necessarily has to be WWW.exact_description_or_name_of_the_event_or_organization.COM , and www.WWPPD.com doesn't really describe the event, except to us. Something simpler like www.PINHOLEDAY.com or perhaps www.pinholeday.ORG tells more. The actual name of the event, in this case should be inside de web page. A minor detail about the logo is that it depicts the Americas only. If paying for a domain reg. is OK with James, it is OK with me. Guillermo

[pinhole-discussion] WPPD Logo suggestion
Hi everyone, Just a suggestion on the WPPD logo idea. I think the pinhole kind of gets lost in the white space of the clouds. I think the idea would be stronger if the pinhole were set off from the clouds more clearly. I have taken the liberty of doing so just to see how it looks.
