Celestia logo

Post #1by Jango Fett » 11.03.2003, 00:43

I know I'm already iritating with this unuseful stuff (like CD covers), but I think it would be nice for Celestia to has its own logo, although it's not a comercial product and doesn't need copyrighted protection in this way...

I'm working on something, it will soon be finished.

Evereyone who has some ideas could post it here...

I really think that the Andromeda Galaxy and a Voyager probe should be on that logo (or at least suggested by it)...

Of course it's only my opinion !

Hmmm... I'm not quite sure if you understand the definition of logo...

Logo is a symbol in a graphic or text that associates the product to us.

It must be very simple and almost brought to abstraction, certainly not an image with different motifs like galaxies or space probes, because those things aren't things we usually associate with Celestia and they are very complex...

The logo must give the symbol of what Celestia represents in our conciousness...

We could, of course, put the motif of galaxy, or Voyager itself, but not together, and those signs must be almost abstract, on the level of association. The logo must be recognized even in duotone (black and white) and when it's scaled down to minimal size.
