Rockbox Logo...

[psycho_maniac]

Yes I remember reading about the name of the project and rockbox did win even though it came in second I believe.

Is nobody going to tell us what came in first?

Hi.

Thanks for voting, everyone. The final results were surprisingly even:

Rockbox: 15
Gnukebox: 10
Orpheus: 17

Just to show what a ruthless dictator I am, I have decided to not use the
winning name Orpheus, instead going with the more descriptive second place
Rockbox. I'm such a crook! :-)

As you can see at the top of this mail, I have changed the mail address and
also the web page address (although the old will still work in both cases).

Now with this name business behind us, let's get on with the code. I have
submitted a SourceForge project registration, so we'll have a proper CVS and
task manager up and running within days.

as i mentioned above, i took it from needleboy's logo (see attachment)... i don't know why he turned it around.

it looks even better, now that one can recognize the 'r', i think. thanks!

by now i can tell you that i definitely prefer the yellow version.

EDIT: rounded corners now, s'il vous plait although the black background wasn't part of the logo for me.

this logo is by far the best thing posted so far.



i agree that things shouldn't be changing all the time (concerning visual identity) but from the first time i visited, rockbox.org logo was something that i couldn't but notice as a bit "unfinished".
i understand that devs (or whoever) have the final word about this, but you should really consider other peoples opinions...

at the end, for me as a happy user, logo is not something that really matters as long as rb works as good as it does, but it might help make the community bigger and project more visible.

Thank you!  I much prefer Rockbox to Orpheus, so I guess I'm happy for the decision

Honestly, if it was the appearance of the logo that would attract some people to this community, I'd say that Rockbox is not for them. Let them go to other projects and admire their logos, and let us listen to music and have fun hacking code.

Amen to that!

Sounds like an argument to remove Doom and Rockboy!

Go! Go! Go!

And amen to that too!

Hehe. I think those would fall under the "have fun hacking code" category.

I design logos as a hobby so i think i'll have a go at this

Edit: Here is my idea
