I'm happy with that too: I think the apereo logo in the spanner will lose detail at smaller sizes. I did wonder whether the text could be outlined, I'll maybe try some stuff.

Hi,

I agree with Inge, I prefer the 3rd one... less fussy and apereo might be academic focussed but xerte has a mix of adopters...

Hi,

For me and Katrien me I think it will be a barrier because our target groups are very different from academic.My preference is that we choose the last two. I also like the last two visually more that the first one. If I have to choose one then my preference is the third one because it's more 'calmer'. Don't know if that's the right word :)

Bye,
Inge

I don't have strong feelings either way really, but would the focus on academia be a  barrier to other adopters? Or are we resigned to that anyway?

It might be their tag but I quite like the re-enforcement of a focus on academia. A lot of our users won't no the name Apereo.

I've played about with some variations in Inkscape. Will reply again with the inkscape file attached in case that doesn't get through but here's a screenshot...

I think the 'serving the academic mission is too much as well - and it's Apereo's tag, not ours.

Here's another version, just plain text:

I like bothbut I think the 'Serving the academic mission' looks a bit cramped in the second version. What does that look like written under both versions? e.g.

Version one reads
Xerte
an apereo community project
Serving the academic mission

and version 2 reads
Apereo
Xerte
Serving the academic mission

This is an alternative approach: it's a bit easier to cope with because we can use a font for the apereo text (Myriad), rather than work off the graphics files Ian sent through.

Thoughts?

We really need to develop a number of icons / logos for different sizes, and I don't see why we shouldn't be able to use both approaches really...
