New OpenStreetMap-FOUNDATION logo proposal

نُشِر بواسطة Zeptomoon في 18 مايو 2010 باللغة English

A few weeks ago I made a slight touch-up of the current OpenStreetMap logo to add some shadow that gives more of a 3-D effect to the map background:
osm.wiki/User:Zeptomoon/OSM-Logo

Then I saw the logo contest for the OSMF.
Finally I followed some discussion about the desire for a new logo for the OSM project itself on the talk-mailinglist here:
http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

So, this morning I spent some time to draft an idea I had last night:
osm.wiki/File:OSM_Logo_World_Green.plain.png

This is only a first draft.
The colors and the slogan are open for discussion.
Feedback? Please tell me your opinion!

Starting with my neighbourhood (Καλλιθέα)

Today was a day of combo-mapping:
1) Yahoo overlay,
2) Surveying on foot with a camera and paper,
3) and looking from the roof of my house!

At least I managed to get a decent start.
Things will get easier with the GPS logger that I ordered...

P.S:
The names on the street signs here are all in capital letters like this:

ΟΔΟΣ ΑΓΙΩΝ ΠΑΝΤΩΝ

I wonder if it would make sense, to tag them like this:

name=ΟΔΟΣ ΑΓΙΩΝ ΠΑΝΤΩΝ (what is written on the street sign > Easy to recognise!)
name:gr=Οδός Αγίων Πάντων (the correct name written properly)
name:en=Odos Agion Panton (English transliteration)
translation:en=All Saints Road (maybe English translation?? Is there a consensus on this?)
