Hi. I agree with Marc
if the logos and icons are designed to be impressive, there's a high risk that a bunch of clueless newbies will complain about pd's
look. So we should keep it simple, to the extreme. We love screen
captures...How i see, now there is a choice between logo in Macromedia's style
(021 - this is the best from 007-021) and pure screencapture style (022-030). http://www.pure-data.org/Members/andre/pd_icon_test21/image_view#021 has very nice design, but i'm not sure that pd needs logo like
this. I very like modern graphic design, but if a designer creates the logo
like 021, he expresses just one idea - "we are contemporary!", but pd needs its own message
and mythology.I think pd already has its own graphical style, embodied in classical (historical) logo - we can just type "Pd" in a object or message box :
)All now pd needs (i repeat) is a mythology. This purpose is usually
reached by any illustration for a splash screen or some graphic stuff in
additives to logo (maybe original graphic design for the installation package).And icon is just icon on the desctop. i use my selfmade icons without pd-logo for example (see attch). If you would like to create a logo, don't begin from an icon, begin
from a legend!!! (than maybe 021 will be best... or 010... or 007. than
everything will change)best regards, andrey
