Speak thru me

My logo suggestion. SVG is available, so scaling isn't a worry:

Elaboration

The logo represents two people facing each other - speaking through Apertium. The faded mirror reflection of "apertium" represents one language morphing into another. --Cabrilo 12:22, 16 August 2007 (BST)

Apertium's got balls

Another proposal of mine, with two font versions:

Elaboration

Same meaning and metaphor as the first one, the ball representing the "box" through which translation happens. --Cabrilo 12:29, 16 August 2007 (BST)

Corporativa generica

Elaboration

Doesn't really say anything, but the 'A' inside the circle is quite cool, and could be adapted for a more compact logo. The circle part could be done better, and I don't like the font much (was thinking of a more blocky / futurey one). - Francis Tyers 12:56, 16 August 2007 (BST)

Open window/door

  • Apertium < Latin Apertum, open.
  • the stylized sun has a stylized a/@, from apertium ;-)

Open box

Elaboration

Box, with different writing systems coming out, at the moment random, but they could spell out something, maybe Apertium? :) I think currently the box icon is non-free, but this could easily be replaced by someone with a modicum of artistic skill (that is, not me). The Apertium font could also be changed. - Francis Tyers 15:55, 19 August 2007 (BST)

Black & white

This is my preferred one. The blocks below can represent the translator structure, but it doesn't matter.

A variation with helvetica and an icon logo in the left.

Red stairs

This logo is what wikimedia does with a SVG.

This other is what I did with my computer.
