LMR logo kit
Hi Folks,
today, LMR's first Birthday, you've all discovered the new LMR logo

Fritsl had the very good idea of a logo kit, available to everybody.
here it is http://letsmakerobots.com/files/LMR_logo_kit.zip
it contains various sizes of the logo, in color, grayscale, black/white (biggest is 4000x1000pixel)
with the additional
to use in videos
+ the original PSD files
and the original SVG file of logobot, made by psy
+ an XLS file containing the "rules" to redraw, and a rescaler
enjoy ;)

now we need the LMR ll ones!!

Updated logos?
Hmm.. Yes, I have been thinking about that.
However, soon we will release later versions, chances are that there will be an LMR II.a, LMR III etc.
I took the liberty to make the II for the top of the site, and so I also think anyone else should be happy and mess around with it as they please.
However, I think that the "official" logo package stays as is.
Think of it like the MTV-logo; At any given time anyone can make a funky version of it. But there is of course the official one-and-only-real logo. And that stays in the kit.

Official Logo
Good to hear, I was thinking if Dagu continues to make LMR merchandise (of which we only have a few samples so far) then how long before we would have to change the logo.
Admittedly the Logo on the cups is a minor variation of the "Official" logo that I made to be used as wallpaper and for videos.

Four elements
It just dawned on me that this logobot contains four fabulous sub-logos. Could someone with VSG editing skillz deconstruct the original design perhaps?
- Ideas: bubbles in jar, or maybe an blueprinted version of an outlined logobot?
- Electronics: eyes
- Mechanics: body with tracks
- Programming: brain
We could really use these four graphics in the design of the site. Webmasters permitting.@ Wed, 2009-04-22 12:52
That's SVG you dyslecrik
And the skillz came to me when I stopped praying for/preying on someone else to do this.
And remember: the source is SCALABLE. That means it can all be rescaled to any dimension or resolution. Without loss of picture quality. Psy is a bloody great designer and a file format genius.

I think you should put it back together, it would make me feel more secure.

favicon
As discussed in "We need a logo on LMR. or do we?", we need a favicon for LMR.
Here's one based on brainbot / bubblebot.
Well, actually it's only a 32x32 pixel gif version of the robot.svg file. Drupal refuses to let me upload an .ico file. But you get the idea. And I am sure you could generate a favicon yourself.
@ Mon, 2009-02-16 09:10
The problem though is that
The problem though is that favicons are 16x16, and at that res, the robot looks kind of unintelligible:
But yes, Frits asked me a while back to set it as the favicon and I've been busy, but now that you reminded me, I'll go ahead and do it now :)

Bigger Favicons
I'm fairly sure that you can do 32x32 or even 64x64 favicons. I'm not sure how older browsers will handle these. I've also had problems with some of the on-line favicon maker app's.
At 16x16 I prefered the old R! - at least it was distinct. On my monitor, the new one is just a yellow and blue blurry dot.
If you can't get a bigger icon, how aboiut using a part of the brain bot - maybe, its eyes and shoulders.

Sounds like you need a new

Tell that to the missus. It
Tell that to the missus. It would mean less space for junk on the desk, so she might buy it. Perhaps CRT rather than LCD would help.
Or, I could sit closer. Yup, that works, but my nose is sore and my voice sounds funny.
@ Mon, 2009-02-16 12:33
Huh???
@ Mon, 2009-02-16 16:14
Glasses
I've got glasses - they make anything over about 20-25 inches away worse.
CRT beats LCD every day of the week. You go anywhere where they bother about on-screen image quality and you'll find them using CRT.

Prototype Teeshirt
I'll have to knock out a prototype now, won't I?
Could I request an addition to the logo kit? The logo's quite squat and wide. Perfect for a web page or video. I think it might look pretty good across the back (shoulders) of a T-shirt.
HOWEVER, I'd like to see an additional square-ish logo which could be used on the chest of a Tshirt. I thought the brainbot might need moved inwards a little. It kinda needs the URL, too.
Here's my sketch. (I'm no artist. You know it already!)
Could you work your magic with that layout?

do you think we need some 'effects' on this one ?

That's Ok
I was thinking more along the lines of this.
@ Sat, 2009-02-07 16:28
Perfect
No. I don't think we need more effects. It's EXACTLY what I had hoped for.
I just need a corporate decision. I know "all LMR are belong to us," (mostly) but sometimes important people need to be allowed to make decisions, too.
Do we finalise the logo kit at some point for the sake of corporate identity, or do we keep it evolving?
I was going to put the URL at the top and my username / user number at the bottom.

the logo kit will probably continue to get some maturity
drawing this t-shirt version reminded me something... but I couldn't tell what...

I a gree, it's good, but it's version beta-let's-go-on-air - Needs what we refer to as fliefucking in Danish ;) (Dealing with details, minor ajustments) - to be perfect. But IMHO it's close.
Under all circumstances it's ours, and I love it for one :)

Chickens
I thought all Dutch aphorisms were about chickens. All the ones that my mother-in-law, who comes from Rotterdam, comes out with have chickens in them.

None of these logos have the web address on so far as I can see.

Yay! We have a logo now! I will most definitely be using these in videos.
