I'd view them as separate conversations for now, if the overall logo gets an overhaul the Stream logo follows suit. We didn't want to alter the main image and hit the brand issues ourselves.
Understandable.
I've put some ideas together in the following links with the hope of being useful:
- https://people.centos.org/areguera/brands/centos-stream-logo.png - https://people.centos.org/areguera/brands/centos-stream-logo.svg
The first logo design is the most accurate version considering the brand in use presently. It is similar to the one Red Hat proposed, with some differences:
- Remove the 4 color bandages. It seems to be a decorative element without any real purpose. The more color we add to the mark the more difficult it will be to reproduce it or adapt it to different visual manifestations.
- Move the "Stream" word from right to left and adjust its size to make it proportional to "CentOS" word. Consider that, when the logo is reduced in size, the word Stream may be unreadable if it is too small.
- We have a design restriction[1] in the mark where the "CentOS" word must be perfectly aligned to CentOS symbol's horizontal axis. All other components in the composition should be arranged based on this, from left to right and from top to bottom. So, it is possible to build new brands on top of the current one without affecting the brand design itself.
The rest of the logo designs are there just to show the design evolution. Where we are and where we will be, possibly. It may help to bring new ideas and corrections on the design table.
