[linux-audio-user] Call for LV2 logo designs

[Thorsten Wilms]

Hi!

LV2 is the upcoming LADSPA Version 2 plugin standard that has 
been in discussion on the developers list and in #lad channel 
on irc.freenode.org since a few weeks. This effort is mainly 
driven by Steve Harris and Dave Robillard, with input from 
several others.

Different from the current LADSPA, it will be extendable and 
not be limited to processing audio, allthough that will most 
likely remain the focus.

This is a call for designs for the LV2 logo to all of you! :)

It was not easy to choose a name, but now you can consider 
it set in stone. So don't put it to question, please ;)
It's not called LADSPA2, because it will not be compatible at 
all.

Designs to be considered have to be announced on this list, 
preferably in this thread, until the 5th of June, 12:00 GMT 
(in 2 weeks).

Requirements:
- It should not be too similar to any well known logo to avoid 
legal trouble.
- It must be based on the name, or be a combination of a
sign/symbol with the name.
- the name part must be legible.
- It should be printable in pure black on white and work for 
packaging art, books, websites, about dialogs. 
- it should work well in small print (at least down to 12pt)
- it should be characteristic, recognisable.
- It should look good ;)
