2008-12-23 Thread Benjamin L . Russell
My design, entitled Origami-lambda-supernova-warp, consists of an H
composed of two identical vertically tiled lambdas warping from a
supernova. It symbolizes the warp of the Haskell-lambda away from the
O of object-orientation (symbolized by the supernova).

Created in Inkscape, then adjusted in GIMP.  First attempt at graphic
design.

Already posted two days ago at
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_logos/New_logo_ideas.

The [1] is really nice and I would love to see other variations with the
wider equal and a bit more rounded edges as was proposed by others. Also the
long bar of the lambda may be slightly rounded (as an integral sign), maybe
just at the bottom part to avoid disturbing the . That would make the logo
less military too. 

As an answer to the critics that referring to the monad would be elitist, I
think this it is a non-issue since someone unfamiliar with Haskell would
judge the logo purely on its graphical appeal. 

For me, the criteria of a good logo are: 
* Simplicity
* Graphically pleasant
* Do not degrade too much if printed in black and white vs. color or when
resized to icon size. The fact it can be rendered in ascii-art is even
better. 

The relation to the topic is quiet optional (hence all the
cute-animal-based logo). It is however welcomed when it doesn't hurt the
design (as in [1]). By comparison, the current logo performs very badly on
all these criteria.

If you look at fonts: characters in a font aren't all straight either; 
they bend a bit (so that is more than just round corners) and this makes 
them a lot more interesting. Various levels of bendiness yield various 
levels of playfulness. While I already like this logo a lot, I think 
it could be improved a lot more by making it more fonty. Note that I'm 
not saying it should be a very playful logo, just a more fonty one... yeah.

Another thought would be to have the lower *left* leg of the lambda set 
off by a different color. Hence something like ,\=  Done properly I 
could see it making the lambda vs. monad alternation more natural.


Another suggestion is that the lambda highlighted version (logo1.png) 
seems a bit top-heavy for the lambda. Moving the centerline up a bit in 
order to widen the base of the lambda should help that, as well as 
reducing the militaristic aspect.



Of all the versions I've seen, I'd really like some incarnation of this 
idea to be the new logo. The \=Haskell one works really well for the 
named-logo effect, and the simplicity of the five strokes really lets 
the logo stand on its own as well. It's been a long time since I've done 
graphic design, so all my tools have rusted. But I could see if some old 
friends would be interested in taking a whack at it.

I like the first version better. :) I'd suggest making the lambda/arrow
a bit straighter and beefing up the size of the equals in relation to
the rest of the symbol :)

nice.
the first is better.
in the second, i don't even see the lambda.


Thanks the feedback. I just uploaded a new version [1] that is icon- 
sized, although the font used is Helvetica Neue, which is non-free. I  
have no free fonts on my Mac, unfortunately, so it'll stay for the  
moment.

 Any critiques/suggestions? I'm thinking about a second version that more 
 obviously defines the second '' with color from the bottom-right part of 
 the 
 lambda.

I also like the first better. If the equals was ever so slightly wider,
it would be absolutely perfect.
