Re: [POLL] DAN logo design update
Might we also consider a logo similar to Diamond Aircraft's? Perhaps something along the lines of :

Re: [POLL] DAN logo design update
I'm pretty sure we would need explicit permission from Diamond to do something that similar, and I'm skeptical that it would be forthcoming. At least in the the world I work in, trade logos come with a bunch a legalese on when/where/how they may be used, positioned... including such things as minimum DPI, minimum size, background colors, etc, and permission is rarely granted for third party entities to use them for their own purposes, especially with modifications.ultraturtle wrote: ↑Tue Sep 29, 2020 11:39 pm Might we also consider a logo similar to Diamond Aircraft's?
I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask them, but my preference would be to steer clear from possible infringement.

Re: [POLL] DAN logo design update
The only part of the new logo choices I don't understand is the airline captain hat!
Do any of us wear a captains hat while flying?!
All for modernization and bringing in something a bit different!

Re: [POLL] DAN logo design update
I'm sure altering their logo would be no-no. In my design I used the exact same logotype ("Diamond") but it should be okay because the other elements (text, artwork) are original.
Actually I'm also curious about what the captain hat was intended for. Chris, do you know about this?

Re: [POLL] DAN logo design update
I honestly don't remember. I'm guessing Kai came up with it, but I could be wrong. I think I need to get myself one, along with some epaulets.
