Arch Linux Programming Language Logos

Xyne · 2009-04-25 22:10:12

*update*
I've created a page for the logos on my site: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … age_logos/

*edit*
This started out with just the Arch Linux Haskell logo (I really liked the new Haskell logo when I saw it and felt inspired). After encouragement from others I've made some more logos. If you request something, please suggest the appropriate logo for the language (and maybe link to it... preferably to an svg file).

Haskell
The cutout and grey colors are based on the new Thompson-Wheeler logo.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … l_logo.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_2.svg

These colors are from the haskell.org site logo.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_3.svg

Python

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … n_logo.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_2.svg

Java

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … a_logo.svg

Ruby
Son of a dirty ***** was this more complicated than I'd expected. When I found the Ruby logo svg I was thinking "nice, this should be straightforward" until I opened it in Inkscape. The vector image was so dirty I ended up recreating the gem shape manually using the old one as a guide. I don't mind though... it showed me how to do point and path snapping and some other things.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_2.svg

with thinner lines:
svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … y_logo.svg

Shell

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_3.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_4.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_7.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_8.svg

other versions:
svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … l_logo.svg
svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_2.svg
svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_5.svg
svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_6.svg

Tcl

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … l_logo.svg

C and C++
I'm not really happy with either of these... plain letters lack symbology and the colors are arbitrary. Anyway, I modelled the C on the impact font (but didn't actually use Impact as it's still a commercial font). The color for the C logo comes from the color used on the cover of the K&R book: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kr_c_prog_lang.jpg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … C_logo.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … P_logo.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … p_logo.svg

Perl
This one was a bit complex too but it taught me how to take a very small image with dirty edges and convert it into a smooth vector image using GIMP and Inkscape.

The color is from The Perl Foundation's onion logo.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … l_logo.svg

TeX & LaTeX

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … x_logo.svg

Lua

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … a_logo.svg

Fortran

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … n_logo.svg

Scala
This one uses semi-transparency so silhouette/threshold versions (e.g. all black) may not look good.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … a_logo.svg

Lisp
This is another one that I'm not sure about. I created the parentheses and lambda myself because I wasn't happy with any of the (free) fonts. Suggestions for improvement are welcome.

*edit*
I've changed the () following andre.ramaciotti's suggestion. I've also changed the colors.
The colors and alien are based on Conrad Barski's Lisp logo.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_2.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_4.svg

Other versions:
svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … p_logo.svg (original (λ) that I created)
svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_3.svg ((λ) using bitstream vera)

ASM

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … m_logo.svg

PHP

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … p_logo.svg

Clojure

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … e_logo.svg

punt

with semi-transparency:

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … t_logo.svg

without semi-transparency:

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_2.svg

LOLCODE
At Dieter@be's request (this is just a joke)

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … e_logo.svg
kthxbai

MySQL

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … l_logo.svg

PostgreSQL

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … l_logo.svg

Programming-related:

Vim

This one took a while because I had to trace the Vim logo by hand first and then I had to manually adjust several paths to get the right outlines. I think the effort was worth it though.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … m_logo.svg

Emacs

Here's another one that uses semi-transparency (for the "shadows").

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … s_logo.svg

Git

These use semi-transparency too.

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_2.svg

svg: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/img/arch_linux … logo_3.svg

Not something I need personally but just thought I'd comment and say well done! Looks clean and professional in my opinion.

Xyne · 2009-04-25 23:41:31

Thanks, HashBox. At the moment the only use I have for it is to remind me that I need to find the time to learn Haskell.

HashBox · 2009-04-26 02:55:22

That seems as good a reason as any, I should use it for that same purpose

Wra!th · 2009-04-26 08:04:39

Congrats! A really sharp looking logo
Wouldn't be a bad idea to make a suite, with some C/C++/Perl/Python/Shell logos:D

I didn't use Haskell myself (yet), but I gotta say: That's one really slick looking logo! Great job Xyne.

The thought crossed my mind but I'm not sure which logos to use. For example, Python and Java have recognizable and easily vectorizable logos that would work, but what would you use for Perl? The Republic of Perl logo? What about C and C++? Just the characters?

I always loved that logo ^^

It is a nice logo but probably a bitch to vectorize nicely.

Anyway, I've done some logos for Python and Java now.

Gigamo · 2009-04-26 16:52:11

I'd die for a Ruby one

crouse · 2009-04-26 17:54:56

Some great work Xyne !

Wra!th · 2009-04-26 18:22:54

Fantastic work!

You owe me one life. I'll be around to collect it within the next century or so.

A bash coder/terminal fanatic would be nice. The rest are awesome. Perfect. Impeccable. Immaculate.

What logo/icon would I use for that? A dollar sign is the first thing that comes to mind... is there something better?

either that or a hashbang

daf666 · 2009-04-26 21:11:45

Very nice.. Is there some central place where all these Arch+product-symbol logos are located? I have seen many of them around mostly in user's avatar.. it could be fun to see them all in one place

Ha!

Added a provisional shell logo.

extra/archlinux-artwork contains the WM logos.

I also found community/arch-artwork just now which seems to contain some ancient artwork (last updated May 2007... it's like finding cave paintings )

Those look nice, I really like the second Python and Java designs.

Thanks! I just wish the font was crisper/sharper, but its very nice.

Xyne · 2009-04-26 22:59:59

sharpened... is that what you had in mind?

I'll try other variations if you have any ideas. So far the bash logos don't feel completely right.

milomouse · 2009-04-27 00:00:02

Oooh... Requests? If so, my vote is for a TCL/TK version, albeit not a very popular choice, heh.
http://www.demailly.com/tcl/about/logos.html
or maybe
http://www.tcl.tk/images/tclp.gif
If not, no biggie, just checking, as I am by no means a graphic artist. Hence why I have no avatar. Generally a text-based guy but it'd be nice to have an avatar for -others- to see.

I've added a Tcl logo. I used the svg image from Wikipedia because it was the neatest way to do it. I used the colors from the second logo.

MOD MESSAGE
Please move this to the artwork forum. I'm so used to posting threads in this forum that I didn't check if it was the best place for it.
