Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
And you saw it coming.. heres my version - put in the context of a new web page http://www.unco.co.nz/legacy/work/rockbox/rockbox1.jpg
4) I realise that open source is normally a case of standing on the shoulders of giants but when you use and or propose an image like this http://pijulius.blogspot.com/2006/06/rockbox-bootloader-with-fullscreenlogo.html you should at least credit the origins? http://images.google.com/images?um=1&hl=en&safe=off&q=hed+kandi+image&btnG=Search+Images
I don't see any indication of "music" in that logo at all. It's more or less all box, no rock.
Here's an evolution version (yes, sometimes evolution has leaps and bounds too) using the r/note/box of an earlier poster modified so it isn't read upside down.
We prefer not to sticky topics here. There's just too many topics that one could argue *could* be stickied, it makes more sense to expect people to just follow the guidelines and run a quick search or two on their area of interest.
It would be also good to remember that the people you most need to convince are the people who really like the original image. The line "think evolution, not revolution" means "We're more likely to prefer ones inspired by and closely related to the current one." Saying "Well, sometimes evolution makes jumps" just means to us "I don't really like your current image so I'm going to make something completely different and call it evolution."And, as to your legibility test, why exactly are we scaling the full website header image down to ridiculously small sizes, exactly? (PS: It looks to me like your scaling is done by a poor algorithm, look in the top left corner of this page to see a similarly scaled one to your medium image, but with a lot less ugliness, and I suspect both our and your image would look better with better scaling).
