The last one looks best imo.
-
But imho it could lead to confusion have a symbol on the yumi badge different from the one displayed in the project logo
-
@Aury88 As Marius said in the original post and I quote
"One point i want to add, is that we might want to remove the "Ubuntu logo" since for this exact reason we are limited." It could all change. -
@Lakotaubp I don't know...it seemed to me he was referring there to yumi and it's badge
-
@Aury88 That's why I emphasized could.
The Ubuntu badge might just disappear which would solve any issue with Yumi. Or Yumi might have a Yumi/Ubports specific one which would also solve any issue using them as we wish. I Personally quite like that idea.
Maybe the less that looks like the Ubuntu (the badge) one the better. That would stop any other associated issues maybe.
After that.......... -

so if we are talking about a symbol that could substitute the Canonical's circle of friends imho we should also consider how it look in other UBports logos/symbols:
for examble:
also this is the only one among my suggestions that fit in the project name

@Lakotaubp
I think a new badge is a very good idea: I've privately maintained that Yumi was the lovechild of Wall-E's pet, Hal, and his girlfriend, EVE. -
@Aury88 these are exactly what i was thinking of if a "total rebrand" came about. good work!
-
@Aury88 i think, I do like the last best and I liked it even a bit more, were the 'o' in the color of the logo, not the letters.
-
The last one with the three linked circles reminds me of the borromean rings:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borromean_rings -
@hummlbach I was thinking instead that among all of them the one with the three linked semi-circle is the least recalling a runic geometry (also because the three semi-circle are not properly linked). the others I immediately associate them with a Triquetra
-
@Aury88 great work - I like the first and the last one best
idea: what about completing the circles in the first logo (gray and faded) on the phone display ... -
@elastic yes lets continue the logo on the screen now as its not well known anymore...
-
If the concern is a move away from Ubuntu branding, has anyone checked how broadly Ubuntu has trademarked human silhouettes seen from above with linked arms? A logo trademark search site I've used in the past didn't turn up any trademarked logos for Ubuntu, which I think says more about that search engine than it does about the state of IP protection of Ubuntu's logos. Even Ubuntu's website doesn't go into the specifics of what might have been trademarked in terms of what they call their "circle of friends" logo.
-
@elastic like these?:
-
@trainailleur I don't think all kind of imaginable friend circle is trademarked. As their website says
the Canonical’s Trademarks (registered in word and logo form) include:
UBUNTU
KUBUNTU
EDUBUNTU
XUBUNTU
JUJU
LANDSCAPEnote how the edubuntu symbol is extremely similar to the ubuntu symbols and despite this they have to specify that it is also under trademark (so it is not covered by the ubuntu symbol trademark).
all the more reason you shouldn't have problems if you don't have even a circle
(plus we could consider our elements only collaborators and not friends
) -
@Aury88 yes, definitely
-
so probably this new badge will be a necessity for the stickers
