Hi, I do not understand the panflute-motive that is dominating the designs. Can somebody please enlighten the LightningTalkMan? While enlightning: what ist the reason behind the first "P" of Pytest a capital letter, as for me pytesting something has more a "function", "method" appeal than a "Class"-appeal.
From the designs I favour #10; from #4 and #5 I would be more found of #5; with the panflute only having one and a half family of colours.
I think putting a claim ("helps you...") into a logo is a challenge - it is allways hard to keep that claim readable in various scalings. Anyway, #4 and #5 would surely also work without the claim :) Harald 2014-05-20 10:12 GMT+02:00 holger krekel <holger@merlinux.eu>:

Tarek came up with the idea and i liked it: testing in python has an inofficial mascott: the testing goat. And a shepherd who takes care of the flock uses a pan flute. Pan is the "the god of the wild, shepherds and flocks, nature of mountain wilds ..." according to Wikipedia. That's roughly the background.

I already fed back that i'd like to have this lower case.

You mean the panflute itself should only have one color? I like the multi-colors ...

Yes, the logo needs to work without the claim but it's also nice if it works with it - we could change the entry page of pytest.org to make it fit i guess. best, holger

That is a great story. Have you published it ? And would you please share the story behind the testing goat? pytest-*, to have a unified branding?
From the designs I favour #10; from #4 and #5 I would be more found of #5; with the panflute only having one and a half family of colours. You mean the panflute itself should only have one color?
"1 1/2 family of colours" (which is in #5, where there is the red and yellow family)... having it in all colours brings challenges if you want to use that logo on any other background than black or white. As in having goat-brown-t-shirts or mugs :) And reproduction can get less colours wrong :)

Absolutely! Especially if you adjust the claim later on, when pytest is adapted to do control cell-culture-based testing of anti-cancer medicine. Harald -- LightningTalkMan a brand of GHUM GmbH Spielberger Straße 49 70435 Stuttgart 0173/9409607
Woohoo bikeshedding! :) Some of the very stylised flutes kind of look like charts, where you could imagine your test coverage increasing over time - I like that. Although they are kind of the wrong way around. But! I also really like #16, which has the old-school feel similar to the Flask logo. (Maybe just a different font for the name?) And it has the dots, which are like watching your passing tests fly by. For the flatter style, #4 and #5 are nice. Bordering on boring though. :) If we use a coloured one, I like the idea in #20-23 that "py" is coloured differently to "test". cheers Brianna On 20 May 2014 18:50, holger krekel <holger@merlinux.eu> wrote:

I like #4 best - I wonder how it would look with another typo though.

holger #32 is now my favorite. The only thing to fix imo is the color of "helps you write better programs"
If you back off your screen a little bit, it's very hard to read because it's too clear and I am pretty sure it will be the same on shirts. I would go with a black text there. but overall it's a very nice logo! Cheers Tarek
Nr 4 has my preference The graphic from that one (without the text) also makes a usable and recognisable icon (for desktop, website favicon.ico etc). #5 has the same advantage but makes it too much of an Ubuntu color scheme clone. Several others are Pleasing as well, but don't have the iconifiable (?) advantage of #4. On 2014-05-20 10:12, holger krekel wrote:

#37 (black on white ground) looks nice - simple and elegant. /stephan On [21] 2014-05-20 10:12 , "holger krekel" <holger@merlinux.eu> wrote:

I love, love #37's flexibility - it doesn't need color to work, but has color to be used. It could be used to set the color scheme on the website. It's also very simple and modern, which I feel like is the thing I like about py.test. -- lahwran On Fri, May 23, 2014 at 3:15 PM, Obermann, Stephan < stephan.obermann@dolby.com> wrote:
