As for the digitizing, I'm going to try digitizing Fedora.next logos

...

this weekend with some help from Mo, so on Monday, I can attempt to digitize Waartaa logos.

It's Monday! I've started working on few ideas - you'll find them here[1]. Coming week is going to be pretty busy, but if I find time to work on more ideas, I'll make sure to publish them onto the waartaa section of my fedorapeople page[2]. Maybe when there's some more ideas, I'll blog about it as well!

As with everything, I'd love feedback on these ideas! All of them have a Fedora touch to it, but should make sense even without thinking about the Fedora relationship :) I've tried to incorporate the 'व' into the third one. After spending some time on replacing the mouth with the 'व', it just didn't blend that well.

Thanks!

Adding Sayan in the loop.

• W is kind of a mouth, which represents 'w' from Waartaa and as well to

speak.

• The eyes and W, combined together looks like two persons shaking

hands, representing collaboration

• I can see a subtle 'व' in the 'a' used in the text 'waartaa'

- The Fedora bubble also looks like a message bubble

• Finally, the cloud hat ;)

Did I perceive the concept correctly? If so, I believe that this logo incorporates all of Waartaa's ideologies and goals.

You've totally got the idea :) All the other points are absolutely correct, but I didn't quite feel the 'a' in the font (Comfortaa) doubled up as a 'व '- that's why you'll notice I hacked it a bit to produce the 'व' in the 3rd one's eyes.

However, I feel something missing near the cloud hat part over the face. It feels like the hat and the face are on different planes. I sense some emptiness in that region. What do you think?

I actually had the same concern, so I tried to make the face look 'embedded'. However, I was running short on time + my inkscape skills weren't good enough, so I couldn't do it then. I'll give it a shot next time I work on the logos (which should be soon). I was also thinking polka dots on the cloud-hat would help, but maybe that'll render the thing busy on smaller sizes.

Here is my take on this :

http://suchakra.fedorapeople.org/some-designs/waartaa/

My personal choice is wartaa2.png

Font is PT Sans Narrow (SIL Open Font License). More colors can be made as requested. I am not a fan of this color but Ratnadeep requested to make the color similar to that of website. I like tho color on WIP logo :)

Feedback welcome.

Hi,

We need help to come up with a logo for Waartaa. However, we are not skilled enough to come up with a logo for our project.

Sarup Banskota came up with some initial concept sketches for the logo of Waartaa at [1].

I, personally, wanted some Indic touch to the logo. I wanted व from वार्ता to be a part of the logo in an abstract way.

Please feel free to share your ideas as well.

Hi,

So If I already using ‘a’ in waartaa word, I don’t need to put व in the logo, isn’t? Btw, when I translate व, it means ‘and’ is it right? Here the other design from me [1] & [2].

@Yogi, I like the concept. +1

I can see that the 'a' in Waartaa is also an abstracted व. This removes the need for having a 'व' inside the message bubble icon. Waartaa is aimed to be an open communication and collaboration tool for teams and communities.

The bubble icon represents communication. A few more people (2 or 3) can represent a team and community. And, we need something to show collaboration. I stumbled across http://thenounproject.com/term/group/53698/ when searching for icons for collaboration.

What do you all think?
