Nice job Lukas; the professionalism and quality of work is evident. I
like aspects of the logo, but too am having trouble getting past the
eye-looking O. Is it intentional (eye:look:search, etc)?

I went through the same thought process - it took a couple minutes
for the whole thing to grow on me. Perhaps a tweak to the O if your
looking for some constructive criticism?
Again though, I really think its an awesome multipurpose logo. Works
well in color, b/w, large, small, and just the sun part as a facicon/
other.

It's pretty good, for me. My first thought is it is an eye (the
orange reminds me of eyelashes), and then the second thought is it
is the Sun. Take that w/ a grain of salt, though, there's a reason
why I do server-side code and not user interfaces and graphic
design. :-)

Hi,
Only few responded so far. How we can get more feedback? Do you
think I
should work on the proposal a little bit more and then attach it
to SOLR-84?

Subject: Re: Solr Logo thought
Hi,
My initial draft of Solr logo can be found here:
http://picasaweb.google.com/lukas.vlcek/Solr
The reason why I haven't attached it to SOLR-84 for now is that
this is
just
draft and not final design (there are a lot of unfinished
details). I
would
like to get some feedback before I spend more time on it.
I had several ideas but in the end I found that the simplicity
works
best.
Simple font, sun motive, just two colors. Should look fine in
both the
large
and small formats. As for the favicon I would use the sun motive
only -
it
means the O letter with the beams. The logo font still needs a
lot of
small
(but important) touches. For now I would like to get feedback
mostly
about
the basic idea.
Regards,
Lukas

Plenty left, but here is a template to get things started:

Speaking of which, if we want to maintain the momentum of
interest in
this
topic, someone (ie: not me) should setup a "LogoContest" wiki
page
with some
of the "goals" discussed in the various threads on solr-user and
solr-dev
recently, as well as draft up some good guidelines for how we
should
run the
contest
