To me it appears like an stylized owl with a three-quarter circle as
opened wings, and with lines of three nested O's.

How is the current draft logo expressive?  What does it express to you?

to balance the feedback a bit: I like the new logo. I'm sure it could be
improved, but in general I think it qualifies as a logo, while the old
version does not really from my perspective. Logos _have_ to be sparse
in detail and still expressive. That's what differentiates it from a
normal drawing.

Cheers,

Sven

Thanks to everyone for the feedback (both on and off list), but a quick
reminder, please do provide your feedback via the link in the original mail
(http://tinyurl.com/OSmascot).  This will ensure that your concerns are
seen by the team producing the logos, so hopefully another revision can be
produced which everyone is happy with.

FWIW I do agree this initial logo does somewhat miss the mark and I'm
hoping we'll be able to reach another revision which is more in keeping
with (and/or more directly derived from) our current logo.

Thanks!

Steve

Here you have my 2 cents,

I think the proposed draft does not fit with what we currently have/want.

I'm 100% sure that can be improved but here it goes.

Can't help but agree with Ryan here. This is definite step down from our
current logo. :\

I obviously have a bias, but this doesn't really have much of a
personality.  I'm pretty disappointed.

I feel the logo draft is missing a lot of the detail and fidelity of our
current logo.
The draft logo has lines that are much too thick especially in the face
area.  It's
recognizable from a shorter distance than our current logo.

Our current logo has more of a cartoon / angry birds type feel to it -
something
with personality.  To me, the draft logo is devoid of personality. I
understand why
the foundation wants to have more consistency between logos, but I'm hoping
this isn't the final design approach.

[openstack-dev] [TripleO] Your draft logo & a sneak peek

2016-10-25 Thread Steven Hardy
Hi team,

I recently received a draft version of our project logo, using the mascot
we selected together. A final version (and some cool swag) will be ready
for us before the Project Team Gathering in February. Before they make our
logo final, they want to be sure we're happy with our mascot.

We can discuss any concerns in Barcelona and you can also provide direct
feedback to the designers: http://tinyurl.com/OSmascot . Logo feedback is
due Friday, Nov. 11.

To get a sense of how ours stacks up to others, check out this sneak
preview of several dozen draft logos from our community:
https://youtu.be/JmMTCWyY8Y4.

The only comment I have made is this logo does lose some of the OoO imagery
we had with the previous owl version - please feel free to provide feedback
of your own via the url above, thanks!

Thanks!

Steve
