I love the simplified logo concept (and the thread is instructive) https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/vim_use/61DSyLWFeak/SrQnujUbdGkJ Especially the little one with the v in the middle - it really captures the essence of the vim logo in an iconic little icon, if you know what I mean. You don't get more iconic than vim. It's pedigree and value is legendary, yet I feel like vimers are a dying breed. I feel the essence of vim *in function*, in terms of it's design, is something that practically defines *good programmers*. The vim way takes more effort up front but once you've got it your efficiency and power is multiplied. I don't want to say that is not communicated by the old icon, but I think because time has passed it's useful and probably needed to communicate that Vim is *still* just as relevant, or *more relevant* today, *because* Vim is not just an ordinary product, it's a timeless product that has never been bettered and implements a method that will always be succesful. These icons capture the Vim logo so that the appearance is anchored in the original but communicates contemporary relevance and seems to bring out the excellence of the marque. Target, AT&T, Intel, Microsoft, Google, Apple, many brands have previously done it with success. I'd love to get high res copies of those icons. I'm going to use these regardless. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Vimlogo.svg will always be a giant but I want to see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.editors.vim/112613 all over the place. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
