The PSP7 (what I happened to have onhand at the time) source file: Letterhead (Proposed)This has not been adopted yet, here for reference for future discussion. MattCarberry created a LaTeX letterhead using the proposed new website logo: hcoop-letterhead.tar Historical DiscussionIdeasA computer of some kind with people living in/on it and performing various activities in/on it. Perhaps a mounted "HCoop" sign on top of it. --AdamChlipala A stylized drawing of a rackmount server inside a circle, with hands/arms coming symmetrically from different directions to touch it. Probably monochrome or close ot it. --AdamChlipala Version with highlights and lowlightsDesigned by CadenHowell: I tried to create a more plasticy version with some highlights and lowlights: hcoop-logo-with-light.png
This one is almost identical, but the plug is bigger. Which means the image can get smaller and you can still tell what the plug is (I hope.) hcoop-big-plug.png

Discussion regarding Chris "det" Clearwater's designBest logo yet! I very much like the circled-planet center. Not so sure I like the cropped "h" on top, perhaps it could be modified. But this one is showing promise. How about changing it to a fat, capital H instead? Something like a less ugly/more stylized version of this: [see above image] (Obviously that H is too wimpy-looking, but that seems to be a more balanced-looking/symmetrical logo.) --NathanKennedy I like this a lot. Even though Adam says that text may work against us, I think using the planet in the center and then a simple "HCOOP" in the black ring would look great. Perhaps the HCOOP being at the same arc as the ring. --JohnSettino Discussion regarding Davor Ocelic's designI like the text/logo juxtaposition here. Perhaps this simple route is better than trying to do clever things with the letters. However this planet looks a bit too egg-shaped, maybe a little more round would be better. I'm not sure if I prefer the original planet color-scheme or not, I suppose that's just a matter of taste. --NathanKennedy I'm also not too gung-ho about incorporating text into the logo. A simpler yet more distinctive logo that uses a graphic that symbolizes us in some way could be much more effective. --AdamChlipala Four HandsThe Four Hands design was the work of AnilNarayanan and eventually evolved into the official HCoop logo. It was his "try at mixing the Ubuntu style of portraying cooperation with more 'square' theme". Original conception http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/fhhcooprh.png http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/fhhcooprh45.png
Tilted 45 degrees.
Left hand versions and svg files are here: These are interesting looking logos. However I didn't know they were hands until I read your email. They look more like whales, or mittens, which is kind of strange. --NathanKennedy How about this one ? http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/hcoop_rh3.png -- AnilNarayanan Better! --NathanKennedy Nice. It would be better if there was some aspect of the logo that indicated some semi-unique characteristic of HCoop, though. There are lots of co-ops out there to which these logos would apply equally well. --AdamChlipala Four Hands Inlay http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/hcoop_rh_screen.png http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/hcoop_rh_globe.png
Web pages being served Networking and Internet theme
I really like the general idea behind these two! I'm not too thrilled about the 4 arms though. For some reason I get this odd vibe from it. Instead of 4 arms perhaps it would look better if it were just two hands grasping each other. Or, a bunch of hands underneath the world/webpages. Actually if its not too hard could you just bring out the world/webpages that are in center so its in the foreground and is ontop of the arms. I'd like to see what that looks like. --RobGubler Here you go: http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/hcoop_rh_globe_z.png I'd rather not do the same to the web pages one as the inlaid picture does not have (black) borders (like the globe) and it blends with the color of the hands, making a mess. I thought some regular shape binding a theme is good for logos to be used in a different places (ranging from the main pages to the tiny icon beside the URL). When shrunk, the inlay graphics are losing significance. Its just the shades of the hands and the overall shape that is felt. We should try another web-pages graphic to be placed over the hands. -- AnilNarayanan That was quick. I like this; it's clean, simple, and elegant. --RobGubler Some more combinations http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/hc_rh_glb_pc.png http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/hc_ar_glb.png

'h' for hcoop PCB indicating computers.
I'm really really liking your last few batches of logos. They look very professional. Probably the PCB one is not the most appropriate however, since "hardware" is sort of incidental to our purpose. I love the globe graphic you did as well with the swoopy orbit, that was very clever. However I had to stare at it for a long time to figure out that the thingy on the end is an RJ-45 plug (the networking hint clued me in)--the first thing that came to mind was that it looked like a tank. Perhaps if the tab and the pins were a little more visible? --NathanKennedy For what it's worth, the correct identity was immediately apparent to me. --AdamChlipala Tried improving the RJ45 connector http://anil.net.in/images/drwg/hcoop/hc_rh_glb_rj45_2.png
Bigger copy of this with transparent background is here Its a bit cartoonish; I wanted to avoid too many fine lines. There is a small problem I ran into while making the new logo and did some dirty fixing. Let me know if you could figure out the issue from the pic. --AnilNarayanan Business style http://www.geocities.com/kuribas/hcoop.png
This logo has a businesslike style. Actually it is not really a logo, but more a top-banner for the website. The connected o's stand for cooperation, while the mouse stands for, well, the internet :) --KristofBastiaensen
