I've submitted to RDS a zipped pdf file containing sample logos for people to look at. They were designed by Ms Gina Stephens (Graphic Artist [Victoria, Australia]) from a couple of basic ideas of mine. We wanted the logos to suggest various attributes of Euphoria: bright, crisp, uncluttered; simple (but not "simplistic"); speed; higher-level; sequence (viz { } ); slice (viz [ ... ] ); procedure/function (viz ( ) ).

Alex,

Is Ms. Gina Stephens willing to donate one of the Logo's for our use?

Also, I'll start with my comments on these logos.

  1. I don't care for the boxy outline of #1, #2, #3 and #5.
  2. I really like #4 as it looks like it will fit right into many forms of documentation.
  3. I love the use of { ... } as a sequence is one of the main powerhouses of Euphoria.
  4. I really like the O in #6 and #7, I think the colors of #7 a bit better.
  5. I don't care for the ( ) in #8 as much as the { } in others.
  6. #9 contains a large area of graphics that would make a lot of white space elsewhere when put on a web page or in docs.
  7. The E style in #10, #12, #27, #28, #30 and #31 seem too much like the E logo of Internet Explorer.
  8. #11 is nice, but it doesn't seem to catch me as much as #4, #6 or #7.
  9. #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18 remind me of a laundry detergent logo for some reason.
  10. #15 doesn't have enough colors
  11. #16 isn't as nice as the others of it's type that has the sun burst in the background
  12. Of the circular types, #13-#20, I think I like #18 the best, but I can't explain why getlost
  13. #21, #22, I like the { } too much to like these ones better than the others with { }
  14. Hm, there are 2 #21's and #22's, opps.
  15. 2nd #21, #22 and #23, I don't like how the { ... } breaks up the Euphoria word.
  16. #24, #25, #26 and #29 I'm just not a fan of any of those E's.
  17. #27, #28, #30 and #31 all have the "IE" E that I mentioned earlier.
  18. #32 I think is too tall for the actual font height that says what it is.
  19. #33 and #34 are not as exciting as the others.
  20. #35 is too much vertical space for the logo vs. the text.

Overall? It's very hard to pick which would be my favorite. I can eliminate many, which is what I did in my above list. I'll be interested in hearing other peoples comments.
