Cool stuff Neil, I’m by no means bored at the moment, a little snowed under actually. I’ll do the final combination and send it through to you guys asap. Glad to be of service.

Jonathan and I have reached a compromise (I think), and like the position, shape, and colour of the star overlapping with the “c” in the bottom-left item on the third set, with the original font in the second set.

If you’re bored, then give some more font options.

Otherwise, I think we can run this past the planning mailing list (sign up if you haven’t already to get a vote) and see if we can start using it soon!

Thanks so much for your efforts!

Neil

I also like the way the star is combined with the word “camp” in number 6, although I’d like more of an asterisk-ish eight-pointed straight-spoked star (like in 1, 3 and 7, but with eight points). But they’re looking good so far, thanks!

Hi Neil, thanks for the comments, doing 6 with 5′ colouring will take a few seconds. I’ll whip it up in the morning when I get a chance though as you say will also wait for some more feedback.

Yasser, I don’t take design criticism personally. I wasn’t really going for anything wow, just spent a few minutes and slapped these together. Any ideas from your side?

Neil, what do we do if we reach a point where there’s a million and one opinions? ie. tomorrow morning Let me know which way to go.

More options please Nur,

I’m quite a fan of 5 and 6. Any chance of doing 6 again with the blue colour from #5, and with a slightly darker lettering? Maybe some alternate fonts?

I guess I’m “benevolent dictator” for *Camp if there’s no rough concensus coming from the rest. But let’s see if that happens, before we get too excited about executive power.

Hi Dave, thanks for the comment. I’m just wondering if design by commitee will actually work for a conference of this nature. At what point do we make a decision about the logo and who gets to make that decision?

Hey Nur,
Awesome work man. I like the icon you used in number 3 as the logo for the event (i.e. without the word).

Rock on! Look forward to hooking up for that coffee soon!

Hi Jason, thanks for the thoughts and looking forward to meeting you too. I added the logos to the planning page on the wiki and numbered them so we know which ones were talking about. Found the wiki a little clunky to format

Some nice work here. My favourite is the fifth one (going from the top, left to right). Why not add it to the *Camp wiki for voting and comments? See you there!
