Boring and obvious. I like wazd's sticker way better. But at least you have not used the obligatory "paradigm" keyword

To my mind the list of devices is slightly senseless for people who don't know what it's all about. Just a row of random numbers and letters. Maybe we we can come up with something more serious than my "stuff in trunk" (but it's cool anyway ) but a little less generic than "open source community collaborative" cause I really can't see bumper sticker as something serious

Ah, but having a cool "I'm in the club" bumper sticker is just so cool... Those oval Euro stickers are always pushing the "I know something that you don't" threshold." But, be my guest. Lets come up with something that everyone likes!

BUT! There's not much time left (like this weekend), so act fast!

Thanks,
Tim

Well, considering "I'm in the club" I think that "I have loads of packages in my trunk" fits pretty well cause:
- It's anyway fun for all the people who don't know the real meaning
- It's fun for all people who know what does this mean

And if we'll think of some mistery then I'd suggest to remove the text and just leave 770-800-810-900

IMNSHO:
  • I don't like the ".org" split from the "maemo".
  • European car country stickers aren't nearly as cool if you're European. In fact, they look derivative and boring.
  • No colour :-(

I may be forgetting things (or being overly harsh), but I blame Jussi, lcuk and crashanddie. Oh, and BFI Southback/Nando's and onedotzero.

Ok... Maybe it was just the word order that I wasn't liking. What about (on the top):

I've got a trunk in my package

Now, that's humor!

And, instead of device numbers we could do (on the bottom):

Mistral Scirroco Grigale Bora Chinook Diablo Mer Fremantle Harmattan

That's cool. Easy fix.

Yeah, but I submitted that idea 20 days ago and haven't heard one complaint until now.

These stickers are usually b&w. And, it would be one of a couple of different types of stickers.

I don't mind the opinions, but we are trying to firm up the final designs/formats now.

+1, but those should be Scirocco & Gregale, and maybe add Sardine/Herring?

The sticker is cool and I'm European

maemo.org split in two rows or not: no strong opinion

what about 'open source collaboration' on the top. good to satisfy insiders and to attract the interest of outsiders in the nearby. the sentence make sense to most of the Maemo target group.

Packages & trunks all recall me to a Linuc teck elite speaking to themselves, something that is not even representative of the current Maermo community as a whole.

Device names is much sorter and much possible to be understood by many. If you see 'maemo' and 'N900' in a sticker pus 'open source collaboratio' and you still don't get it no worries: you are not target and you won't get any variant of the sticker anyway.

About vazd proposal we already have vazd sticker will all the projects names and flag shape,which is cool.

I'm European and the sticker is too cool (negatively. sorry).
  • Splitting the Logo is an absolute no-go. "maemo.org" is the logo and can't be cut in half. It's an abuse, a sin!
  • I really don't get it about Euro Stickers. In fact, with the EU, the car country stickers have been abolished and are not in use anymore.
  • I don't like the insider jokes around it. They border on "nerd arrogance" (a debian illness ).

Please: Let's keep it simple for the stickers, just use the default logo design like last year! Less is more.

(However, I like the T-Shirt design very much )
