Great Idea - Logo

Common sense: #7 is cool!

Maybe I’m just slow… but I just realized that #7 can appear to have a ‘3’ and a ‘D’ in the main “circled X” graphic. The white part in the circle looks like a 3 because of how the ‘X’ cuts bits out of it, the top half of the circle looks like a ‘D’ because of the way the bottom bit is not round because the X is there.

#7 there is looking pretty cool.

Has anything more come back from the graphics forum?

#7 is really nice. :slight_smile: However I’m not sure if it’s better than #1. ???

#7 is very good. I had gotten used to #1 since JCD’s been using it a bit - but #7 is more sleek and modern.

my vote for #7 - very modern and it catches one’s eye

The “X” logos look great, but…

Focusing on the X is a bit "Direct X"ish.
The old Direct X logo was a nuclear looking X.
Or the X-box…
Or X-Windows…
Or Mac OS X…
Or the PSX…
Or the X-Prize…
Or *niX…
Or Active-X…
Or… ;D

Which isn’t necessarily bad. It could work to the advantage of Xith 3D to attract programmers familiar with all those other ‘X’-ish things.

Should we already start a poll on the Subj or we will wait a bit more?

I know that designers here in JProof are quite busy right now, so I think [read: know] they will not have time to make more variants.

I think we should start a poll.

What are the nominees? The JProof ones are the best so far IMHO and I would be happy with just those ones being nominated.

Before we start the poll is there any non-JProof logo which someone feels should be on the voting list?

Will.

PS. I just got back from a holiday so I’ve got a bit of Xith3d catching up to do :slight_smile:

I would like to bring this topic up again: if nobody is going to suggest new logos, I ask you for preliminary voting - let’s choose, say, 5 logos that should be on the voting list.

Yuri

My favourite is the JProof #7.

Although, I also like JProof variants 2, 3, and 10.

/me brings a whip
I say we pick up number 1
;D

We should pick up all the logos, which got more +1 than -1 in this thread (mostly the JProof ones I assume). If anyone feels a good logo is missing, just give a +1 to it.

So here are the logos, which would make it in the elections according to what I said above:

(Orangy Tang’s snake logo doesn’t exist anymore.)

Looks like a good short list to me, I vote we start a poll very soon. It would be nice to have a cool logo up on xith.org :slight_smile:

Will.

Wait! - what about the one that looked like a snake and used the java logo colours. It was pretty good. I think it should be included in the poll (even though I think I might not vote for it)

As I wrote above (below all the logos) it’s not accessible anymore. Here’s the link: http://studenti.lboro.ac.uk/~cojc5/Temp/XithSnakeRough.png

That would be my webspace then, I cleaned it out of all the junk/temporary stuff since I needed more space. I’d totally forgotten about that.

Its pretty rough, but I’ve reuploaded it again, just in case:

I’ll +1 for the Java Snake (OT). Although I think the others are brilliant in the classey top end logoness, I think the snake is clean and simple.
