Hi
All,
A new set of Trafodion
logo options are attached, taking account of much of the input that I received.
One of these is a
clear winner for me personally, but I submit them for your consideration and
hope we can zero in on one of them. (Or perhaps two for a run-off.)
By the way, all logos use
Google fonts, including the earlier front runner option 4 where I found a
comparable google font to use, now named option 4g.
Cheers, Ken

I can see it now. I like dragon very much, but hope it is not too popular.
I think we also think about whale before?
The meaning behind whale is: it is the biggest animal on the earth , and real

And Hadoop projects seem to use cute animals (Hive, Hadoop). Maybe we can draw
a baby dragon?
And most people like sky blue? I used to have black or golden dragon as my
favorite

My 2 cents.
Overall, I like this logo, it is already good enough for me. It shows to me how
powerful Trafodion is. I know it is hard to get consensus for this
kind of design.

Hi,
Based on the input from several people in this thread, I'd like to propose the
following draft as a candidate:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxlwNhWxn8iTQV85eDlyc0RxWGc
I'm hoping that Ken, Sandhya, or someone else can make a real version for
consideration rather than my PowerPoint hack. It needs a bit of work on the
gray hue
(s;lightly darker IMO), size of dragon, and alignment but that's better done
in a real designer program. The font was downloaded from Google Fonts: Telex
Regular.
As mentioned, the draft fits into the overall website well:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxlwNhWxn8iTczNMLTRjYUVXSkE and
I'm sure it'll meet the other criteria, too.
Thanks,
Gunnar

I don't think we're quite converged and ready for a real vote, and to be
honest, I hate to call for a 3 day vote on this over a long weekend in the US
and at
the end of a holiday week in China since that's where most of our traffic
comes from.
Further discussion over the weekend and final vote on Tuesday?

Having Apache in our logo, brings a lot of credibility and shows we are serious.
Let’s also keep in mind that the logo/text should look good on the website,
presentation
slides and any brochures if you will.
Certainly we need multiple colors to bring attention to the product name.

It depends on how much value you think Apache adds to Trafodion, as compared to
those other logos that perhaps already have some cachet. I feel that it adds
quite a bit of value to Trafodion.

I wonder if we could also consider a mod to option 4 where only the dragon and
the word trafodion are present. See the two images attached.
I sampled a couple apache project logs and found they do not have the word
APACHE in their logos (e.g., HIVE, MONGODB, AVRO, SPARK).
With this approach, it is possible to put the Trafodion logo into the "power by
Apache" logo, see URL here,
without the duplication of "Apache".
It also simplifies the design and allows a good focus.

Slightly late to the party, but +1 on option 4 as well. Though I would prefer
a slightly less formal font, the one in option 6 is too spaced out and I'm not
fond of it overall...
But that's really a nit and this is infinitely better than no logo at all....

+1 for Dave’s and Hans’ suggestion. Like the dragon to sit on the right, not
on top of
Trafodion. But the font in #4 looks more professional (perhaps also in lower

Seems like the dragon logo itself is a winner - most everyone liked that.
But the combined logo and name was definitely not popular.
Here are a couple of new suggestions for the combined logo and name.
Option 4

Option 6

Don't ask for options 1-3, & 5 - they didn't make it passed my limited field
testing!
Comments on 4 & 6?

I’d say there is enough “curliness” going on with the dragon. So we could try
with a
simple bold font . Perhaps with an outline of a different color like
Hadoop’s/Mahouts is and tie it in with the dragon’s colors as well.

+1 for the dragon as well. We used to have an informal logo with another
somewhat cursive font, it shows in one of the carousel pictures on the
trafodion.apache.org site. That might be better (although still not my
favorite).

By the way, the size of the example logo is arbitrary. The original is a

I'll make a stab at changing the font and size relative to the dragon and post
another version of that.
Agree that separating the dragon from the name/font makes sense.

On the writing, cursive is hard to read, so I'm up for replacing it separately.
Maybe we vote on each separately (as Sandhya and Amanda did)?
Voting separately is a good idea. Having engineers vote on 'designs' is always
a tough one. Sounds like folks like the dragon but not the cursive... so suggest
splitting out what we vote on so at least the dragon carries.

Hi,
I like both. I do agree that the font for “Trafodion” makes a’s and o’s too
much alike.
Would be nice to switch to another font that doesn’t have that issue.

Subject: Logo Proposal
Hi All,
Apache Trafodion needs a logo.
I believe there was some discussion about a logo for Trafodion quite some time
ago, but we never really resolved it. In the very early days of Trafodion,
before
becoming an Apache project (incubating) I devised a logo that leveraged the
Welsh connection of the project name, and that was a simple cute dragon.
I now have a much improved version of that original logo and propose that we
use this as the official Trafodion logo going forward.
Dragon standalone -
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9c1EkzsNnw4QmttYnBzZDdFSTQ/view?usp=sharing
Trafodion name & dragon -
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9c1EkzsNnw4Y3RRdVQwb0owSFU/view?usp=sharing
I’m not thrilled with the font choice for “Trafodion” – the o’s and a’s look
too similar.
Thoughts? Should we vote on this?
Cheers, Ken
