Re: Fw: New GNU-GCC logotype (Concept Look v 1.0) <smaller version for gcc@gnu.org>


Hi Turbanov,

If you haven't seen this already, check out
<http://www.gnu.org/graphics/graphics.html>.  That site has a small
collection of "GNU" artwork.

For a GCC logo specifically, I'd expect it to have elements that
reflected GCC itself, such as its organization, goals, or background.
The present logo reflecting GCC as the "egg" of GNU is interesting, but
it would be neat if a logo also reflected the enormous diversity outside
of the GNU system itself that GCC is a part of.  GCC is not just a
servant of GNU; it is the bold herald of free software for all machines,
operating systems, and peoples.

I'm starting to recieve suggestions and comments and I like, that it is so. Aaron, Ur words seem to make sense and the global idea of GCC-GNU has to be implemented. I've allready noticed, that the first concept look is just a sketch, it is has no style definition. Now I understand that the beta version has to be made. The style is what will make our gnu more serious and global ... smooth paletes and gradients, strict contours and bold line widths - all this can be adjusted to "profile" gnu for different purposes.
As a good note I would like to add, that there is only gnu at the present moment. I've made GCC string also and has published it one gcc@gnu.org, but it may be considered as a place-holder, however a start point. Its style has to change from subject to subject.
So, the current gcc-logo thread now counts 2 projects : gnu-general, gcc-string.
