I remember volunteering to create some logo ideas for Perl 6 - maybe a decade ago? I did research and presented ideas. I was at a step even before thumbnail sketches - just wanted to get some feedback from the Perl community - am I on the right track? Any other ideas to look at? [0]
Larry kinda went, "NO IT"S THIS." and there was Camelia.
Honestly, Camelia is just slightly worse than the redesign of The Life Aquatic Flag/Logo. Which itself was funny, as this was from a comedy [1].
Ah, I remember now - Larry just posted a PDF of Camelia.[0]
I was under the impression that Larry was banned from being in involved in the implementation of Perl 6. ;)
I kinda saw that logo and gave up the idea of helping. It was just so horrible as to defy logic.
Still love Perl and I think a butterfly is a great idea - and even this is a good as a start, but it's not a strong enough logo for people to have careers depend upon. Like me. It doesn't even tick all the checkboxes that Larry had. If you made this logo in an intro design class in art school, you'd be ridiculed.
