Hello, We (Faith and Kevin) wanted to work together to develop a JFrost Logo for you. Faith has formidable skills in Photoshop and LightRoom. We look forward to hearing your feedback on the proposed new logo. Thank you. |

From @Daniel-Mietchen on May 10, 2018 12:12 Hi @VasantJ3 @Kevin-Wangome - thanks for pitching in here. We're about to get going on the US East coast. The logo above is nice but it refers to a typo (JFrost) rather than our initiative's shorthand (JROST) but I like it nonetheless, since the snowflake image could be seen as a representation of a landscape. So what about dropping the J from the above and accentuating the nodes and edges of the snowflake with slight variations of colour, size and shape to represent individual tools or infrastructures in the open science landscapes, and the connections between them? Slightly morphing the overall shape of the snowflake to something a bit less symmetrical (perhaps as seen from an angle) might also make sense. |

From @dwhly on May 10, 2018 13:25 Glad to see folks thinking about this, and happy to see what you might come up with! Here is the existing concept for convenience. (But pls don't feel constrained by this design!!

From @Daniel-Mietchen on May 10, 2018 15:21 @dwhly Can you put that up as a SVG as well, perhaps via Wikimedia Commons again? |

As folks are designing, it might be helpful to consider how logos are often needed in various contexts and think through how your design would work in all cases:
In case it's helpful for folks, here are SVG files for the initial logo used by the Joint Roadmap for Open Science Tools. Note that this logo is very provisional, made so the project would have something to use quickly as it started. The "design" was simply the project's initials in the Noto Sans font currently used on the website. |

From @Daniel-Mietchen on May 11, 2018 10:27 @Kevin-Wangome that sounds great, but where can we see your new version? |

From @Kevin-Wangome on May 11, 2018 11:32 Which one of these do you feel looks good? On Fri, May 11, 2018 at 1:27 PM, Daniel Mietchen [email protected]

From @Daniel-Mietchen on May 11, 2018 11:56 @Kevin-Wangome I can't find anything like a logo to look at - please upload the images here or add links that point to them. |

From @Daniel-Mietchen on June 10, 2018 22:12 The interim logo has been proposed for deletion on Commons: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:JROST_over_Stonehenge-01.png&oldid=305624775 . I left a comment there but perhaps we should take this as an indication to get back to working on this logo. |

From @dee-y on June 15, 2018 0:29 Hello @Daniel-Mietchen, I'm a graphic designer and i would love to make you a logo if you would have me. If you accept, I will make you a logo and it's free. |

Hi, what do you think of this design?, a mixture of lab tube and letter "J" |

That's a nice design! It conveys science and tools well. How do you see it conveying "open"? I think JROST is a ways away from adopting a logo however, for one because we are beginning to debate if we should expand our view beyond science to all of scholarship (changing the "S" in "JROST"), which would thus change the overall identity of the project and thus, its brand identity. It would be great if you'd be willing to pitch in again once things were more settled. |

Great! I would be waiting :)

One thing to think about during and after the sprint is how a JROST logo might look like.
The image we are currently using in this repo's README is just a very first shot at visualizing what it is that we are aiming at. It captures some aspects of the project but not others, and it is not very usable as a logo.
Another starting point is the initial logo used over at https://twitter.com/OpenSciRoadmap (see archive).
It is usable as a logo but basically does not capture anything about the ideas of open science, a roadmap and doing it jointly.
