Hi,
At tonight meeting we decided on the following process to finalize the work started here and to get a new Ubuntu-be banner matching the new Ubuntu branding. Everybody has until next meeting on 16/06/2010 at 21:00 (UTC+2) to send their proposition to this mailing list. During the meeting a selection of 5 (or less) propositions will be shortlisted. Then I'll create a poll (on Launchpad) opened for two weeks the let everybody vote. The poll result will decide of the new banner/logo for Ubuntu-be[1]. Two important notes: * The new font has not been released (yet) by Canonical. The only letter for "Ubuntu-be" you can't get by copy/pasting/resize from the existing logo is the "e". In order to get things done, we can decide on a incomplete design using inappropriate sources (the Ubuntu logo in bitmap) to be refined using the new font and proper source once available. * I don't think anybody will have the courage the crawl though the mailing list archive to pick everyone's last/best submission. I known I won't. So please, resend your best/favorite design (done by you) in reply to this mail. PS: See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.region.belgium/4513 for the original discussion [1] Unless we are overwhelmed by an army of trolls hijacking the meeting and the poll. -- Pierre Buyle -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:[hidden email] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be |

I prefer version 2. The first one kinda links us to the Belgian government. It looks ok, But the 2nd one I like the most.

Mijn bijdrage aan de banner:
De look van andere nieuwe logo's gevolgd: 80% zwart voor ubuntu en 60 % zwart voor 'be'. Het blijft wachten op het officiële lettertype om de 'e' definitief te kunnen voltooien. In plaats van 1 circle of friends zijn het er drie geworden: we hebben dan ook een nationale vlag bestaande uit drie kleurtjes ;-) Origineel is in svg. groetjes, Koen Wybo -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:[hidden email] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be |
De Banner van Koen is voor mij de beste.

De banner van Koen is origineel en 'crisp'. Die draagt momenteel mijn voorkeur weg.

I like your forth submission (without any Belgian colours).

Quite strict!
This would mean some of the propositions won't fly, because the circle of friends' colour was changed. (e.g. Koen's design or the first three designs from Steven.) But at least you can find a proper 'e' when they talk about the file names on page 18 of the Ubuntu Brand Guidelines.

Hi folks,
According to the Visual Identity guidelines, one cannot change the shape or colour of the circle of friends. I also read that there has to be a "registered trademark" sign when the ubuntu logo is being published in a size over 3 cm wide. Yesterday there also leaked a beta version of the ubuntu-font on the internet. Only the internationalisation of the font isn't finished yet. The beta version is complete for our language, it works well, and I used it in this version. I also used the official cmyk colours for this one. Personally, I think that the Belgian colours don't work well with the orange of the Ubuntu logo in any way (trust me, i tried to make them work), and logos with Belgian colours give a rather cluttered impression (except for the ones where the circle of friends have the colours, but as we said earlier, we can't). Furthermore, using both the belgian colours and the "be"-text seems double, as everyone understands "be" stands for "Belgium". We have to keep it clean and simple. That's the only way to keep things highly recognisable, and true to the minimalistic direction and the decluttering actions both Canonical and the distribution have taken recently (eg. Ubuntu Light and the Unity desktop). When I created the current posters (Ontketen je computer), I took a minimalistic approach as well, because I thought it was the right way to go. I haven't changed my mind since then... But that's just me...

Spacing in that beta font version maybe isn't correct (and hinting certainly isn't). But it's perfectly usable to make rough design proposal of course. > I also used the official cmyk colours for this one. No, you didn't, PNG can't do CMYK... ;) > Personally, I think that the Belgian colours don't work well with the > orange of the Ubuntu logo in any way (trust me, i tried to make them > work), and logos with Belgian colours give a rather cluttered impression > (except for the ones where the circle of friends have the colours, but > as we said earlier, we can't). > Furthermore, using both the belgian colours and the "be"-text seems > double, as everyone understands "be" stands for "Belgium". I agree that the colours don't match too well, or it risks to make it look like a "colouring book" if orange or the dark purple colour are used too. > We have to keep it clean and simple.

I haven't changed my mind since then... Another option is to use a (dark) grey or maybe even black for the "be" part (IIRC that's what some other locoteams also do?). -- Jan Claeys -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:[hidden email] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be |

Steven,
To keep it simple and as suggested by Jan, could you present another proposition using use a (dark) grey or maybe even black for the "be" part ? jean7491 Ubuntu Belgium Events Team On 10/06/10 13:07, Steven De Baets wrote: > Hi folks, > > According to the Visual Identity guidelines, one cannot change the shape > or colour of the circle of friends. > I also read that there has to be a "registered trademark" sign when the > ubuntu logo is being published in a size over 3 cm wide. > Yesterday there also leaked a beta version of the ubuntu-font on the > internet.

Hi to all,
Hello Jean, As asked by Jean, I added 2 proposals with black and grey "be" parts. @Jan: designed using linux software that can handle cmyk and converted to png :-D . Indeed the spacing in the beta font isn't correct. I noticed that as well and made small adjustments to the text. Kind regards, Steven.
