SCN: logo ideas

[Joe Mabel]

Any logo with relatively small letters in the design (e.g. the "democratic 
technology for all" writtenrat the bottom) is liable to scale down badly.  
Before adopting it, we should play with how it scales down and consider whether 
it will be acceptable at the smallsst size we intend to use.

One standard solution to this is to adopt several variations of a logo 3-5 
different sizes, possibly a color and a B&W version at each size.  Major graphic 
elements should stay the same, but details may vary: for example, text might not 
be exactly proportional at the different sizes, to improve readability.

In any event, rather than sending candidate logos out by PDF through email, 
can't we please post them on SCN itself somewhere & have one central place 
people can look at the possibiities?

That said, I do sense a bit af rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic here: 
Except for people who have no other SCN activities they can contribute to, this 
seems like a pretty low-return use of volunteer time.  I would not put a new 
logo among SCN's 50 greatest needs at the moment.
