| From the Attic: http://hcoop.net/~aku/hcoop_logo_attic.html | === Discussion regarding Chris "det" Clearwater's design === * Best 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 design === * I 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.

| 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 | * 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.

| http://hcoop.net/~anil/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 |

| 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.

A 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

Discussion regarding Chris "det" Clearwater's design
Best 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 design
I 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
