Hi all,

Part of what the global OpenMRS community offers local communities is logo design. I would like to put in a request for this service.

Does everyone agree this is a good idea? Or does anyone have an objection?

If you have an idea for the logo, please let me know and we can include your idea in the request to the designer.

Regards,
Pascal

Thanks, Pascal. I think it would be great to have a logo designed through the OpenMRS community process.
Regards
Chris

Thanks Chris. Since I've had no other feedback on this, I'm going to go ahead and ask for a logo design.

I'll notify the community here once we have some options.

Cheers,
Pascal

This all sounds good.  I’d like to make sure the logo design is driven by the eSaude members in Mozambique, so is there a way to include them in the design process?

Sure, I was hoping this thread could be used for collaborating on the logo. So far all I've done is ask how we can move ahead with the logo design. I'll be sure to keep this thread updated with the latest information.

Tchau,
Pascal

I am not a graphic designer by any means but some concepts we might want to incorporate in the design (likely not all will be possible so maybe people have ideas about priorities):

Pascal - Did we ever get anything back from the OpenMRS global community?

 

Others - Is there anyone who would like to draw a logo for the group to look at?

 

I see attractive modern logos often have simple colors, simple lines, and abstract versions of recognizable shapes.  OpenMRS, for instance, has the first two features, but the shapes are just abstract, not recognizable. 

 

 

The OpenELIS logo is an example of a logo that says “lab” in a general way

 

http://www.limswiki.org/images/archive/a/a1/20120427214632!OpenELIS_logo.jpg

 

Here are some examples of logos on the theme of “leaf” (I don’t suggest that the eSaude logo should have a leaf, but I think it’s a good example of what I mean by a recognizable, pleasant, shape)

 

https://www.google.com/search?q=leaf+logos&espv=2&biw=1083&bih=727&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=n3NwVYesNonyoASIuoGwDA&ved=0CB0QsAQ

 

 

Personally I’d pick a positive concept like, “growth”, or “health”, or “tree”, or “horizon” and use an abstract image to show that idea.

 

Anyone willing to try?!

 

Bill

I never heard anything back from the global community on this, no.

Jan, should I follow up, or wait for you to send something out?

Cheers,
Pascal

Hi All,

 

As promised, I put together a couple of logos over the weekend to see what everyone thinks.  I’d love to hear your thoughts, and as usual, I won’t take offense to anything that’s said – so feel free to speak up if you dislike them!  It really won’t bother me one bit.

 

3 ideas attached in the PDF – if we don’t like any of them, we’ll mock up some new ones.  Feel free to say:

·        which one you like the most,

·        which one you like the least (or all),

·        what aspects you like about specific ones (e.g. - I like the concept of #1 or I like the color in #3 or I like the alternate text you proposed at the bottom)

·        totally new ideas to incorporate

·        totally new text you’d rather see

·        etc.

 

Talk to everyone soon,

Jan

Hi Jan,

These all look great!

For the text, I'd use upper case for Mozambique and Community, but I wonder if the text should be in Portuguese?

Cheers,
Pascal

I think Valerio and Laurence raised good points about color and branding. 

#3 (with some modification) seems popular

Hi Jan,

I vote also for the 3rd one and agree with Valerio’s suggestion.

would avoid though the “OpenMRS” word in the text…too sensitive and the esaude community is/will be much more then that…

cheers

Great feedback!  Looks like the majority liked #3 the best, so I’ve incorporated the comments into that one and added a couple of variations to get more feedback and finalize it.

 

Attached are 5 variations, let me know what you think.

These are great!  Looking forward to hearing what people prefer.  And, if they are willing to say, why they prefer a particular option.
