HOWTO: Design a logo on Twitter

    Ryan Cordell
    If there are any Latinists on twitter tonight, I need a Latin version of the DH slogan, "More Hack, Less Yack"...

    After too much time in VectorDesigner this weekend, I emerged w/a new logo for : what do you think?

    Ryan's original THATCamp LAC seal

    far too detailed, esp. to print on fabric: remove pointer, laptop and floppy disk. "LAC" aspect ratio distorted.

    that makes sense-but this version seems dull-makes me a little sad to cut the pointer esp.

    Drop the seal, then, and hang on to (a simplified) pointer? That'd be witty because the pointer says "that".

    @ seal may be more important than the pointer-other suggestions for integrating traditional & tech?

    hang on to seal, drop the laurels, put LAC on circumscription, put the pointer in the centre, maybe inside a heraldic shield?

    @ryancordell I like #2 better than #1. Why not go for a QR code while you're at it?

    Nice!

    I actually worry that the QR code would worry many of our participants (not in the DH know): barcode = corporate

    Brian Croxall
    That's why I didn't like the barcode. It makes you seem manufactured rather than creative.

    Clarification: I like #2 better.

    I really like this image. It reminds me of the seal of my alma mater, a small LAC. Great visual rhetoric!
