If you thickened up the lines on this one, I think it'd be cooler? Like make the letters all nice and fat and go with round dots?

If it helps to understand what's needed for a trademarkable logo, you can access the USPTO Design Code Search Manual at http://tess2.uspto.gov/

Very nice.

When I scaled it down, the j! visual weight seemed light.
What do you think Andy?

What do you think about trying one without the tail on the exclamation point?
Just the vertical stroke.
No need to be symmetrical. May even be more interesting.
This would also push the insides to the right a little. Joomla! to the left.
Have you already tried this?
If you are like me you have already done 50 previous.

I really like this one.


I liked the symmetry because sometimes I hang upside down from the ceiling when working on design projects and I like to see the same thing as when I sit on this lump of steel they call a "chair". Actually, I tried it without the tail and it just didn't have the same sense of balance. And yes... this is the result of many, many versions ;)

Brad,

Stick people expressing their love for one another is NOT defamatory.

Obscene perhaps - tasteless, definitely - and clever, OBVIOUSLY not, humor nazi :)

But it's not defamatory :)

My fiancee has now banned me from the boards - she says we'll find a CMS that RESPECTS artististic freedom. Seriously, can't be playing here anymore today.

Oh, it will scale regardless.  I made it resolution-independant.

This one's cool.  Might also look good with a capitol J.

DeGrey:  Same thing, cool logo, I'd love to see how it looks with a cap J.

GRutkowski: The logos didn't grab me, but the slogan is right on.  I'm afraid a certain sandwich chain might not approve.

Joomla!

Hmmm...

Joom... Zoom... Boom.... Boomerang... Shockwave... Speed... Action... Motion...

Image

How about something along these lines? This is quick and dirty, I know. Perhaps the text should confer more motion to it, also...verticals being at an angle and/or elongated "oo" for a hint of inertial stretching, etc. Anyone feel free to build on this.

Btw, I know I'm late to the party, but belated contrats to the devs and the community for taking this bold step. That shows action, too! I made the smallest of dents at the old haunt, but I look forward to getting better involved in the future.

Can I ask what should be an obvious question here.

As there are 2 O's in the new name, has anyone on the Dev Team thought of approaching OSI with a view to a co-branding agreement which would allow the new logo in incorporate OSI's 'Open Source' logo into the design.

As long as OSI aren't looking for payment for use of their logo then the legalities of this would be that an agreement would have to struck permitting the incorporation of their logo into the Joomla logotype, minus the TM symbol on the basis that:

The right to use the Open Source symbol is contingent on Joomla remaining open source itself - which is not a problem.

There is an acknowledgement of OSI's trademark enbedded in the source code in the same way that copyright notices are embedded.

There is, obviously, and cknowledgement of OSI's trademark on the main Joomla site.

Such an agreement would include a licence to use the OSI logo within a trademarked Joomla logotype without affecting OSI's own trademark rights and vice versa.

This would allow for a logotype which not only provides a clear brand image for Joomla but also clearly brands it as being open source and given the high profile that Joomla should quickly develop on the back of past successes would prove mutually beneficial to both parties.

OK, batman.
I turned it upside-down; also did the squint test.
Joomla! still seems too far to the right.
Sorta dangling off the circle rather than visually integrated.
In squint test especially.
I may just be crazy.
Well . . . probably a given.
;D

Wow! I would have never guessed the phi would have been picked up on. I see there is fellow design nerd :) I like the idea of flipping the ! in the second part. Very clever. Would mirror the upper ! in the orb. I'll play with this more later this evening. Thanks for all the feedback so far. A lot of good ideas here!
