I like it, although I would make it bit more colored (steel blue?).

I believe magnet is good as well, so I am going to keep it for month or two, then adopt this logo (again, for some time).

For me it's the magnet Razz

When one sees the logo, he there must be a link with the subject. And the first thing I think about is horses Very Happy . Which is quite far from a C++ IDE. A least the magnet is linked to electronics.

Maybe in blue steel or bleu ligthning it would be better

So, any plans for "final"/permanent logo? What are requirements for it?
IMO it is better to have one (and good) logo to advertise it. Make it a kind of recognizable brand.

Any chances to "modernize" "package logo" (the one on the left top corner of screen)?

I can do that. But this logo seems to me "about nothing". Don`t you feel this way? I just really can`t understand what two rulers with Microsoft logo background stand for. May be we should add a little sense to it and then modernize?

I do not think logos have to represent anything real Smile See e.g. wx...

Anyway, I guess it sort of represents "modularity"...

There is no need to change this logo. All excellent.

I had an idea, the logo is slightly pulled in 3D, and part of the logo, color filled, to make a transparent colored glass.

And the rest - all excellent.

For some applications, it is useful to 3D version of the logo. For example, for Splash screen. But it will be to the taste of community.

Dear all, I`ve made a number of attemts to "redraw" old U++ logo (box and 2 rulers), but failed to make anything pretty. I do draw gradients and everything in fashion style but resulting image is far from what I could be proud of. Just need your fresh ideas.

Of course. I may even upload source (.max file) if it is needed. Also I`d like to improve it, but I need your fresh ideas. Smile

New wiki page Shocked ! Great, we are on the map again Razz.

But didn't you say that you were going to drop the Ultimate++ name and go with U++?

Out of curiosity, I tried to redraw the TheIDE logo.
I'm not sure it's good, actually I'm not sure it's even better then the current one, but I think it's probably at least worth posting, so here it is.
I think it's cleaner and a bit more pleasing to eye, but whether that's good for TheIDE, I'm not sure. (and I'm too lazy to try to build the one with my icon and use it for while)

I'm not an artist, so sorry if it's bad, just dismiss it then Smile

I really like that. Having the rules/bibbons off to the side makes it much clearer.

I have been watching at it now after couple of hours pause, and I think my version is objectively better. Maybe not as good as to call it "good" already in terms of professional graphics, but better then the old one, I'm quite sure now.

Mirek: it's of course PD or BSD or whatever license you wish, if you want to use it (I would appreciate that). Or anyone else if he wants to take it and improve, feel free. Also tell me if you need some other size, I will mock it up.

My picture not for logo.

I like the colored glass model. And this picture is just a fantasy.

I used Blender to create it.

Hello all

Is there anything new about this thread ?

This would be great:
Quote:

BTW, maybe we should get some sort of "Developed with U++" logo too...

But this is also true:
Quote:

Yes, it would be good. But IMO it is the second step after making final version of logo itself.


Dear artists. All my support (not very useful) to you to get something approved to be used. Smile

Best regards
Koldo


Best regards
Iñaki

Koldo, I couldn't make any modern looking version of "classic" U++ logo (box + 2 rulers). Personally I don't find it fit well into concept (but it is U++ authors who decide of course).
So after rndering magnet and horseshoe I was out of ideas. Maybe if you have some fresh idea, I could render it.
Personally I consider Mirek's magnet a good idea, but I think it should be U++ authors decision about it all. After we render and discuss final logo, we could discuss "developed ..." logo.
