Logo
Andrew Reitemeyer Thu 13 Aug 2015 5:11AMPublicSeen by 449I have been thinking that what we do for the fundraising does not have to be carried over to the next stage. We should have more resources to spend on image, brand etc.What we do now does not have to be perfect. So we can create some designs and see what we prefer.

Pikki 1 - I like that it says its a think tank

- I am totally opposed to the concept of blocking anything. It was disasterous in the Occupy movement. I request postponing the vote and correcting the procedure being used. See separate explanation exceeding 250 char limit here.

Nr 2.
Mostly because it's the only one with a pictogram that would work standalone without the text.
Andrew ReitemeyerMon 14 Sep 2015 8:13PM
I like no. 1 as well as it includes a rhomboid form :)
Arthur DentSun 13 Sep 2015 9:34AM
A clear proposal is for or against one single proposition. I can elaborate with references based on extensive study of social choice theory and committee procedure if anyone seriously disputes that there is currently no clear proposal to vote on.
I will be voting no to pretty well any decision about anything until we have discussed and clarified the implications of the announcement just made that the PPIS board wants no emphasis on Iceland. That may affect the choice of name Sunstone which was specifically chosen for implications of association with Iceland and therefore may also affect the choice of logo related to name as well as many other aspects of the whole idea.
PS The name Sunstone is also associated with:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunstone_%28comics%29
I don't normally read ANY "erotic romantic comedy" comics, but made a point of reading that one because of its BDSM theme and found it surprisingly good (and certainly an antidote to "50 shades of grey").
To avoid associations with Iceland, perhaps a BDSM themed logo might work. I would find something like female pirates with whips especially appealing.
(I couldn't resist mentioning it but am not proposing anything ;-)

I love the first one. I like that it gets the cube in and it says think tank. But I also like number 3 and 4.
Even if I like no 1 the best. I wonder if it might lack colour?
Eva ÞuríðardóttirSun 13 Sep 2015 1:38PM
Number 4 is also sooo good! It reminds of browsing :D
Eva ÞuríðardóttirSun 13 Sep 2015 2:05PM
It's not that the PPI board doesn't want any emphasis on Iceland. Not at all.
The original idea was always to keep the think tank international - the idea was to creat a place where we could store an share info/knowledge to figure out what is working best for us and why a "how to build a successful Pirate movement" blueprint so to speak. We thought it would be a good idea to have an international platform for this and we could also use all the help and good ideas we can get. Now polling at 36 % the few volunteers that are working full time are overwhelmed. The odeas was a thunk tank that deals with the practical issues of building an political movement - not the political ones. It would be nice to figure out away to share resources and knowledge.
Do to Icelandice law: The PP - IS can not officially be involved with any fundraising campaigns. The only donations we are allowed to receive are limmeted both the amounts and where we can receive them from.

Thanks @evathuridardottir
I have responded with some specific questions for you in the "Mission Statement" thread and suggest that we continue the discussion there for reasons I explain there:
Andrew ReitemeyerMon 14 Sep 2015 6:08AM
@arthurdent Blocking one proposal because you are not happy with another part of the discussion could be regarded as being 1. off topic and 2. a violation of etiquette.
Arthur DentMon 14 Sep 2015 11:38AM
@andrewreitemeyer I have changed my vote from block to disagree. I will not add any further explanation until waiting at least the customary 24 or 48 hours and likely longer.
pakkiMon 14 Sep 2015 11:56AM
I prefer No. 1 of my own scribbles.
Katharine KroeberMon 14 Sep 2015 8:38PM
I like the form of Number 1 very much -- and I think actually it could work with or without the text -- but running it by some people, I feel it needs more colour; it's kind of bland as is. Would it possible to colour the sun-rays?
Andrew ReitemeyerMon 14 Sep 2015 8:55PM
It looks like number one is running as favourite - We could discuss colour in relation to a, to be produced later, style guide.
Rasmus LarssonTue 15 Sep 2015 9:18AM
@pakki If you have the time to do it I think it would be great if you could do a couple of slightly alternate versions of no1 enhancing different aspects of it. Which we could have a second vote about at a later time.
pakkiFri 18 Sep 2015 3:10PM
Sure! I will post them here in a couple of days.
Andrew ReitemeyerSun 20 Sep 2015 2:21AM
I assume there will be SVG versions for printing onto T shirts etc.
@lmn_arFri 25 Sep 2015 8:17PM
I'm late. Sorry!
I like 2nd and 3rd
2nd because the idea to swich on the sun
3rd real good, dynamic and these times logo
Juan Esteve RamosWed 30 Sep 2015 2:16PM
2nd is the best one for me. It's easy to replicate, Not in need of many colors. Can be a really easy to recognize trademark.
4 has nothing to do with sun and 3 is too much complex for a logo
JelenaMon 9 May 2016 5:48PM
2 and 3 works for me :)
Pirate Party Emoji data set
proposal by Jelena Closed Sat 3 Sep 2016 1:02PM
Was thinking about emoji data set as addition to memes and laptop stickers, and all - thingz- digital we use to set and amplify our political discourse.
Initial thoughts for emoji's are related to core pirate principles, symbols we have in campaigns (grumpy cat, MJ, file sharing symbols, antifa, etc) + flame wars / trolls, administrative stuff...
What would you like to have as emoji served by PPI that'd be of some use to your daily digital life?
I know I'd like to have torrents as emoji.

Yes it can be used international across every country.

Awesome!
Katharine KroeberTue 9 Aug 2016 2:25PM
looking forward to these!
Juan Esteve RamosFri 2 Sep 2016 12:51PM
Of course Arrrr!!!
Iuri GuilhermeMon 8 Aug 2016 12:55PM
I wasn't aware of this topic, so just for the records, I've started making a package of telegram stickers some time ago which I've never finished and it's documented here;
One would install the package through a link like this;
There is also instructions (in brazilian portuguese) in the wiki on how to produce them;
And finally there's more svg from where those came from (or there should be) on a mediagoblin instance.

Nr 1 is Good the cube could be colourfull like each side base colours Blue, Yellow, Red, or the 3 colours that are mixed from these. Orange, Green,( Purple,Lila).
