Fame! Eternal glory! Tacos! … or poutine if you're one of them.

You could have all of these wonderful prizes and more if you can design a logo for Arch Hurd!

Ideas to (possibly) work with:
* Archlinux logo style 'A'
* A GNU
* Blue is a good colour. I like blue.

So, talented Arch community, show me what you can do!

Deadline: I'll make a voting thread on the 22nd (Friday), so you have until then to submit your ideas.
However, if there haven't been any more submissions by 5PM tomorrow (GMT) I'll assume there won't be any more and start the voting them. Friday is the final deadline if people keep submitting attempts.

I found this GNU on Google, noticed its conveniently shaped ears, and knew it would look great in a hat:

(I had to)

By the way, Ghost1227 made a GNU Arch logo a few months back:

A first try from me ... I don't think you'll appreciate it ...

thoughtcrime · 2010-01-17 11:03:26

Alright, here's my idea:

svg (feel free to improve)

It is based on the HURD logo:

VERY good.

fastfret79 · 2010-01-17 11:44:32

Very nice thoughtcrime

Here's my couple of variations on a theme:

vMzl4Ng

vMzl4Nw

Awesome, too

Barrucadu · 2010-01-17 12:07:17

I like it thoughtcrime

thoughtcrime · 2010-01-17 12:07:44

@apollokk, fastfret79,Barrucadu: Thanks

@fastfret79: I like the first one! You've nailed the font tag and it looks fun with the HURD logo inside the d and the cable around the other letters

thoughtcrime: what about a combination of yours and my first one:

I like this idea alot.

Maybe this logo and the text "arch linux" on the side all in black and white and nothing else. That would look great!

whacath · 2010-01-17 12:59:46

oh, and lets not forget to type out "a simple and lightweight hurd distribution" under the logo too.

Could you provide svgs of your logos? This one looks cool, but with svgs we could play with it a little more

fastfret79 · 2010-01-17 13:08:58

Although I like the cable through the letters, I think it looks a bit untidy. Here's my new favourite:

vMzl5Ng

whacath: I like the idea of the tag line and could easily be added

I'm (rather stupidly) not working in svg, but here's the gimp xcf:

I'll try to remake your logo in inkscape then and mix it up with mine (just like you did in gimp).

thoughtcrime · 2010-01-17 14:08:49

Here it is:

svg

linkmaster03 · 2010-01-17 14:14:15

I love the combination of the Arch and Hurd logos, but I think adding the original Hurd logo into the d of "archhurd" makes it too complicated.

fastfret79 · 2010-01-17 14:18:33

Brilliant thoughtcrime

Daenyth · 2010-01-17 14:22:31

Someone remind me when this gets to voting, lest I forget

fastfret79 · 2010-01-17 14:30:07

Here you go linkmaster03:

vMzl5cw

I have to say I think this does look a lot cleaner without the cable and the logo in the d

Army · 2010-01-17 14:32:20

I vote for thoughtcrime!!!

I guess you are right. Here it is (again) with transparency and as svg:

flamelab · 2010-01-17 14:49:02

This is one is the best I guess: http://omploader.org/vMzl5dg/archhurd_variation1.png

What would be ideal: making a semi-grey semi-blue-like logo, something between the last one (which is grey-transparent) and the one above.

linkmaster03 · 2010-01-17 14:49:27

thoughtcrime: I love those two. They are perfect.
