Wanted: A logo for the Chaostreff Bern

by Niklaus 'vimja' Hofer on 2015-06-03

The Chaostreff Bern needs a logo. In this point we agree, at least on the mailinglist we do. What we are not sure about is how the logo is supposed to look. There are a few suggestions already (see below), but we are still looking for good ideas and for artists to help us implement some of our ideas.

Call for suggestions

If you have ideas for a logo or, better even, a draft or finished suggestion, you can send them to the mailing list. Preferably send it to one of the existing threads concerning the topic. Don't worry if your drafts are rough around the edges - surely if people like the idea, someone can be found to help you with your work. We will publish all the suggested logos here in this post. However, the correct place to discuss them is the mailing list.

Decision making process

The call for suggestions and disussion stays open until Thursday, 2015-06-25. On the Chaostreff meeting on that day, we will decide which logo we want to use for the Chaostreff Bern. We'll take into account the concerns and opinions raised during the mailing list discussion. The final decision though will be made by the people present at the Chaostreff that evening.
