>>Project/Request Title: Need project logo for Janus >>Project Overview: Janus is a proxy server that uses an encrypted SPDY (and soon HTTP2) connection to (partially) secure your browsing session when visiting unencrypted sites. It also has a number of features that allow it to reduce your bandwidth usage and latency, which should help mobile users in particular. We chose the name Janus because (according to wikipedia), he is "the god of beginnings and transitions, and thereby of gates, doors, doorways, passages and endings", which seemed appropriate for a proxy server. >> Creative Help Needed: Copy: No Design: Yes Video: No Other: No >>Creative Specs: 1) A full color logo. I guess I'd prefer SVG or another vector graphics format. Whatever you normally do here is fine. 2) A grayscale (embossed?) toolbar icon similar to the built-in ones. This will be used by an addon to allow the user to view stats for the proxy, toggle options, etc. >>CTA and Design: The god Janus is usually depicted as having two faces facing away from each other, as seen here: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a9/Janus1.JPG I was thinking one of those using foxes could be interesting, but mostly I'll defer to you folks on that. The due date and launch date are not really tied to anything, I just tried to put something reasonable. The project is already "shipping", in that we have an instance of the proxy up for people to use and an addon for setting options and viewing stats. >>Creative Due Date: 2014-08-15 >>Launch Date: 2014-08-31 >>Mozilla Goal: Firefox Browser >>Points of Contact: deb@mozilla.com, blassey.bugs@lassey.us
The best straight-ahead "generic" device shot we have is the one labelled "firefox-os_phone-splash_CMYK.ai" available here: https://mozilla.box.com/s/tfw68dt8hj40gvkqnn3w Tannie, I'll send you an invite to that folder right now.
Oops, that comment was most definitely meant for a different bug. Please disregard! (more on this one soon)
Hi James. Can you share more info about how this logo will be used? I will note that as a general policy we're trying to create fewer logos, and are instead relying on our established brands whenever possible. Re: the due date, I'm afraid we won't be able to tackle this that soon...the team is currently fully booked as we prepare for a bunch of upcoming Firefox and Mozilla campaigns in the fall.
