Badge Ideas

Here are some ideas to use as badges on peoples profiles and other places... please be kind. Warm regards - Paul

SET ONE: From a design by Alexei Berteig


SET TWO: From a design by Chris Heidema


SET THREE: From a design by Mishkin Berteig

Alexei's are

the best

Badge feedback - Set One!!!

I really like Set One. I think it looks modern, bold, has nice clean lines, and is great. Others are good too, but Set one is my pick.

I don't even like my own logo :-)

Mishkin here.

I prefer Alexei's logo by far. My own logo sucks :-) Chris' logo is great, but I fear it is too small and thin for the kinds of things that a logo should be used for.

The version that Alexei created is designed so that it can be used in single-color situations. He also explained to me that it is so bold because when it is used either in very small situations or very large situations, a bolder logo usually looks better. He was also very emphatic that the logo should _not_ attempt to convey too much of the nature of OpenAgile itself. He explained that this is not the purpose of a logo - rather the logo is an identifier that should focus on instant recognition, not subtle or complicated communication.

Mishkin.

Capacity building...

I wonder if the triangle in Alexei's design could be about growth and capacity building. Wouldn't that be nice?

Addition

This is an addition from Chris Heidema that he emailed me.

Note: The actual badges started with designs from the three people... then were modified with a little colour and the words champion, readiness, and team member.

Badge Feedback

I like Alexei's design too. I think the "Readiness" element could be a little bigger (to occupy the same amount of space as "Champion" and "Team Member" proportional to the words OpenAgile).

And if you used the O or OA in the same font as Alexei used as the end slide in the training modules, I wouldn't think of Oprah Magazine so often :)

I like Alexie's design too.
Clean

Good choice on complementary fonts and colours.

Missing capstone on 'A' - Bad (a long story).

Badge feedback

Of the three, Alexei's design is by far the best.
Good:
- clarity
- simplicity
- least number of colors
- scalability
- would look great on a golf bag
Bad:
- screams software
- What's with the little triangle?

Feedback:
- It would be ideal for the look of the logo to tie into the Learning Circle, and vice versa
