friendsofsymfony.github.io Updating the FriendsOfSymfony logo

Provided this is kosher with Symfony2's trademark rules... any feedback on updating the FOS logo?

Or perhaps an inverted, lighter variation of that? I'm only being half-serious here, but I do think the existing FOS avatar could use a refresh.

+1 on anything with a smilie .. cant the sf be the nose?

Will be quite hard for @Stof to review this logo :D

btw +1

Aug 18 '11 21:08 willdurand

I agree that the current avatar can be improved. So +1 for the search of a new logo

However, I'm not in love with this proposal (don't ask me to explain why, maybe because it feels too much like the Sf logo at first look, especially when looking at my screen in certain positions making the color darker :) ).

If anybody else has idea, feel free to post them here too.

I'm all for a new logo, and I salute the vaillant effort but am looking forward more propositions.

I personally am a terrible designer.

@lsmith77 Any logo has to display well when sized as an icon, so an "sf" as the nose would quickly become illegible when the image is shrunk.

No hard feelings about the negative feedback. This was intended to be a silly suggestion to get the conversation started. I'll see what else I can whip up in my spare time going into the weekend. Anyone else is welcome to contribute as well :)

+0, dont mind either way :)

What about Fozzie Bear doing an @lsmith77 pose?

Here is my random try :

or a flat version :

@inalgnu your proposal is fun but I fear a trademark issue...

Feb 15 '12 09:02 stof

I like the @inalgnu's proposal

Feb 15 '12 09:02 willdurand

I'll think about it.. XD Is important to have a good logo XD

Feb 15 '12 10:02 mmoreram

as for the trademark, i guess its not allowed .. tough we could always try to get an exception ..

Feb 15 '12 11:02 lsmith77

I don't have a photo of my face right now, but I have one of my ass. There is no trademark on it!

Feb 15 '12 13:02 ornicar

@ornicar The comment you replied to being now removed, your message is kind of...awkward :D

Feb 15 '12 13:02 jcrombez

yes it was my fault, i removed them, sorry apologize to all

Feb 15 '12 13:02 cordoval

what?? why the hell was the previous comment removed? it was okay

bah nevermind, I'll leave mine anyway. Deal with it :D

Another smiler version :)

FOS Logo

So @ornicar is (literally) showing his ass on Symfony land again! =D

Does anyone want to take a shot a deconstructing the Symfony logo into F and S for FOS? I'm curious what that might look like.

Feb 16 '12 18:02 jmikola

@jmikola you mean like that ?

or like that ?

I guess it may be a problem in term of trademark...

Feb 16 '12 23:02 jcrombez

i like that direction, but we'd probably want to seek permission before using something like that

Feb 16 '12 23:02 merk

Certainly, if we do anything with the official Symfony logo, we should run it by @fabpot to ensure it's consistent with the trademark policy. I imagine that deconstructing the logo might not be kosher (but I was more or less curious what the results would look like :)

@jcrombez's "fos" logo looks quite nice. And of all the non-Symfony logo submissions, I like @rleal's the most. I think it would also scale down to GitHub avatar size quite well, which is important.
