Hello, First off, nice job with the redesigning of the SAGE site, it's looking good.
About the sage logo, it's cool you guys want to display it as the icon for sage, thanks. On the other hand, it's true that look can come off being a little cryptic, but I wanted it to look 'fast' and 'cool' and the 'a' and 'g' come together to form an infinity sign, which just screams 'cool math' ;) I would definitely like to help making it more clear to read, but I not sure yet how to exactly do that ... I kind of like the way the shape of the logo is (btw, it looks a little squished on the homepage), but maybe I could accent the 'a' to make it stand out, or maybe add more of an outline to all the letters to make them all stand out, or maybe just add some text below like: "SAGE: Free Open Source Mathematics Software" (or some shorter catch-line) in stylized text to make it clear what the logo says above. I'm open to any ideas, thanks, -Alex On 5/6/07, mabshoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hello, > > > To be clear, it's the way the 'a' and 'g' are joined, together with > > the 'type face', that makes for a complex visual experience (:-}), at > > least for me.
