Template:RightTOC My thoughts are to arrange what seem to be favored and have people get that many votes, and vote on the cluster or individual logo. Best, MarkDilley

Crazy thought / change the logo? Here's a concept, comments welcome Raymond King | talk

I prefer our current logo, it fits in well with the style of the site and the monobook skin. Elassint, 10 21 2010

Understood; I was thinking that we'd also move from monobook to vector when we did the upgrade. Example at ICANNWiki.com Raymond King | talk

I don't see a need to rebrand right now, even under vector. I must admit to being biased to the current logo though :-) ~~ MarkDilley p.s. look at past logo ideas too.

To the right, I am suggesting a rebranding using the same image and different lettering - with the image above the text - also this is the favicon we have had for a while, lost recently. Many complements of the logo, thus my pushing for keeping it is some fashion. :-) ~~ MarkDilley

other font ideas

I love this logo. The current one appears to be a bit, no offence please, quaint in the meantime. This one is very catchy, modern and clear. It works on heaps of skins and allows a good favicon. --kgh 08:36, 1 November 2010 (PDT)

I find the logo great, but it could be even greater :-) though a need for a rebrand seems not to be. But think also about the favicon which is currently empty. Please let me have a further look on it. --Wolf | talk 00:07, 27 October 2010 (PDT)
@Raymond, was it your design?


I tried something yesterday, but got no reasonable results so far. I guess the shovel shape in the teeth of the key was intended as a metaphor for gardening? --Wolf | talk 00:37, 28 October 2010 (PDT)
p.s. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/Steel_trowel.jpg/90px-Steel_trowel.jpg this one could fit better ;-)
What about this straight forward logo below? Indexer 01:11, 30 October 2010 (PDT)

It's not a bad idea, but there's no way we can make a 396 × 98 logo like that work with monobook or vector. Sorry. Elassint, 10 30 2010
This is a Citizendium clone. I do not really fancy it. --kgh 08:36, 1 November 2010 (PDT)

Here another suggestion:

too much "hidden" content ;-) ? --Wolf | talk 11:43, 30 October 2010 (PDT)

Okay here is the same logo in 128 by 128. Indexer 17:52, 30 October 2010 (PDT)

that's not the problem. If it should work as favicon, it has to be scaled down to 32x32 or 16x16 pixels - try better with a square shape. --Wolf | talk 05:34, 31 October 2010 (PDT)
Yours is not 32x32 or 16x16 either, and mine is square shape. The green colour doesn't look good. Indexer 16:13, 31 October 2010 (PDT)

Favicon

This simplified logo (minus the text) might be something that could be recycled into the favicon. David Shepheard 04:32, 27 October 2010 (PDT)
I like that idea. It would make an excellent favicon! TeraS 18:11, 27 October 2010 (PDT)
I think this is a good idea as well - and if we kept original keys, we could change lettering to this color. ~~ MarkDilley
A nice one. See me comments in the logo section. --kgh 08:38, 1 November 2010 (PDT)
I like this a favicon. I'm neutral on changing the logo, but if we do, I think matching with this favicon would be the way to go. --MarvelZuvembie 17:08, 4 November 2010 (PDT)
not really working favicons
