Thanks for all the comments. I did a little rework and simplified it a bit. I like this one a lot. I hope you guys do as well. Thanks, Thomas for the idea, I think it fits great. Here is the url: http://www.supercodepoet.com/spring/logo_text2.png What are everyone's thoughts on the cartoon. I was going with the idea of a Duke like character but using the standard database model icon as the base. We do not have to havi it in the logo, but I think it might give the page and Spring a marketable face. Just some thoughts, give me your input. Thanks, Travis |

I like the rework. I agree with you though, some sort of simple logo image might go a long way - especially for marketing purposes. -----Original Message----- From: spr...@li...

This logo is great! In the original, it was my feeling that the cartoon did not come over as very professional. I like your idea of a cartoon as "marketable face" though, a bit like the penguin and duke. An idea that came to my mind when I saw you original design was what we call the Michelin man for the Michelin tires. It's a cartoon of a man whose body is a tire. See www.michelin.com.

I like the logo. Is there any way to perhaps incorporate a "puzzle piece", "building blocks", "scaffold", or "building foundation" concept into it? When I think of framework, I think of any of the above. -----Original Message----- From: spr...@li...

Travis, I agree with Dmitriy: data access is only part of the story. Spring today includes a lot more, such as: - beans-based configuration management - JDBC abstraction - transaction management abstraction - AOP packages, which will soon offer declarative transaction-management without the need for EJB - highly modular MVC web solution - package simplifying accessing EJBs Overall there's a strong emphasis on JavaBeans and interfaces, as discussed in the book, and it aims to simplify use of J2EE. I like the colours and the 2-colour SpringFramework on the right with a shaded blue bar underneath. However, the text should change. Maybe we need a slogan: something would look good where you have "Practical Data Access" but I don't think we have suitable text yet. Maybe leave the bar unworded for now and add text later when we think of something. I like the idea of including a spring somewhere. I think the character on the left could be reworked a bit. Not sure what the blue puddle to the left of him/her is and the datastore text should probably go. I can certainly see this logo working in well with an overall site design. My original thoughts for a logo were based around spring the season--maybe based on a photo of budding trees or the like. But I badly lack graphical flair. Juergen, Yann et al: thoughts on this?

Maybe you could incorporate a Japanese cherry blossom symbol or something like that - they're nice and simple and make good logos: http://www.geobop.com/Symbols/flags/images/Japan/FukuokaSaga.gif http://www.fotw.ca/images/jp_pm-sc.gif I think "J2EE made easy" sounds a bit glib as a strapline... -- Luke Taylor.
