DROP needs a suitable logo in order to promote the program, and also just because it's fun.

The logo must meet the following requirements:

a) Must use Druplicon (see http://drupal.org/node/9068 for SVG/PNG/etc. versions).
b) Must only use GPLed images, and the source files of the final work must also be GPLed and submitted with the task.
c) Must contain pancakes. Yes, we're deadly serious about that.
d) Must be approved by one or more DROP administrators.

Logo should be scalable to several sizes, including approximately 64x73 so that it can be used as a default logo in the Garland theme.

Sweet!

eignitor, I like your style. but it must have something to do with pancakes. Yes, I'm seriously not joking. ;)

sepeck: Cool! I like the Druplicon "dropping" down on the stack of pancakes, as well as the syrup "Drop" on the pancakes. I wonder what it would look like to Photoshop together a bottle of syrup with Druplicon on it? :)

I'm off to do some field studies in Pancakehouse Hannover. Having got deeper insight into the topic, it will be easy to integrate ;)

Ok, I LOVE these three:

  1. The frying pan one.
  2. The sitting-on-top-of-pancake-stack one.
  3. The jumping-into-a-sea-of-pancakes one.

Can't wait to see where this goes!

OK, Drop Logo goes to alpha ;)
I believe I'll go basically with the sketch attached.
Just polishing. Do you like the pencil-like drawing style
better or do you want solid vector lines?
I mean a better pencil drawing, for sure ;)

What do you think?

Pre-Final Version. The pancakes are terrible and have to be worked upon, but the fella should be O.K.
I'd like to incorporate it into the site header. For this it has to be taller. The theme is nice, but isn't it table-based? Urrrhh...

Hey ho, here we go.
There is a packet.zip with all files: the jpeg once more, and also a Photoshop CS2 File, if anything does not fit.

The jpeg should work: throw away everything in the upper right corner (also the header.png). If you position it absolute top 0 left 0 within the div#container, it should make a perfect fit ;)

Looks awesome!

And we now have pancakes: http://drop.cwgordon.com/ ! :)

Hehe. Such a greedy one, keeps all the pancakes to himself...
Please add a "position: relative" to div#container, then he will sit even more comfortable and a bit more to the right...
(ya know, these themers are splitting hair all the time ;) And I'm a themer)
