There are some things I personally don't like with
this (potentially) new
logo and wanted to share my thoughts with you.
- as Jay R. Ashworth stated before, brackets are not "square enough" and I
strongly agree with his statement
Well, nice to know someone doesn't think I'm daft.
- I see no purpose for four different types of blue
color (two for brackets,
two for text)
Well, I don't think they're actually 4 *colors*; I think they're more 4
different tints of one color. About a PMS 320 or so, I think, if my
memory serves.
- IMNSHO one font should be enough for logo; making
"catch phrase" in italic
should be enough
On this I might disagree. But, since the tagline is medium-italic, and
the mainline is bold-roman, they might well *be* the same font, for all
I know.
- I personally don't like proposed catch phrase;
"Power your ideas" is
shorter, but even if MediaWiki changes logo, changing phrase isn't necessary
at all ("Because ideas want to be free" seems to be closer to MW's idea)
Hmmm... As I noted, I think the choice of tagline is *a separate thing*
from the logo redesign proposal.
Cheers,
