Hi Community,
The XWiki Logo proposal period is now closed, many thanks to everyone
who participated. It is now the time to vote the new logo amongst the 19
proposals available here:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Community/LogoChallenge#HProposals
You can send your vote:
- on the mailing list, by replying to this e-mail
- on twitter, in the format: #xwikilogo <proposal_number>
Don't hesitate to nominate several proposals if you feel that they are
really close and you cannot decide for just one. Sometimes, a bunch of
fuzzy opinions can lead to a more accurate result.
+0.5 for 4C
+0.5 for 5
I've found them very nice, colorful, simple to remember and also with good
micro-logo/poster potentiality.
4C is nice because the 4 pencils gives the idea of collaborative writing, and the
dematerialized part of the X recalls the idea of "digital" content.
5 is nice because the flock of squares recalls documents that can be reorganized in
different in different structures.
For both logos, I just have a little remark about the font used. It is, IMHO, too
"skinny" and gives me the impression that it's not properly antialiased
(like the fonts we used long time ago on our desktops). I understand that a bolder font
could compromise the result, but maybe another skinny font could be chosen... The W really
looks bad wrt antialiasing.

P.S.: Kudos to all the people who submitted a proposal... They are all very cool!
