in reply to A logo for Perl

Nice, though maybe the version number doesn't stand out enough, especially the "6"? What do others think?

You might also want to create black and white versions suitable for print when you get a chance.

BTW, are there any potential legal issues with Microsoft's butterfly logo for MSN, etc.?

    These are just first drafts, i was expecting to refine (or even redraw) them based on feedback from the Perl 6 decision makers.
    Everything would have been possible, sadly there is no interest and i'm giving up now, the logos will not get finished.

      I'm sorry to hear that, I think your design showed a lot of promise. Is this a case of nobody in a position of influence wanting to hurt Larry's feelings? Because the current logo is just awful. Unprofessional, ugly, it reinforces many of the unfortunate negative stereotypes about perl that I hear from other programmers. And I really think the official logo for Perl 6 should really be something that's open to debate

        No; plenty of people have expressed opinions of Camelia both pro and con. (I like Camelia, and not only because it annoys people to the point of threatening never to use Perl 6.)

        I really think the official logo for Perl 6 should really be something that's open to debate.

        Go ahead and debate it with Larry then. Good luck.
