The Long Story

The Eclipse Nebula project is slowly moving out of incubation. Artifacts of this process are going to be stable releases, continuous builds and easy to get documentation.

A new design of the Nebula website will be part of this although I fear that it will be quite hard to get resources for this job.

When looking at the great design of the Xtext website, I must admit that I am a little jealous. Because nothing drives production better than competition, I thought it was time for a new Logo for the Nebula project.

A great designer is somewhere inside me, waiting to blossom, but, to be completely honest, when I show my creations to people, I often get advice to hire some professional help. Nevertheless, I was thinking that an Ambigram would make a nice Nebula Logo. When designed properly, Ambigrams are clear on their own but can be read upside-down as well. So after fiddling around with it a little bit, this was the result.
As you can read from the mail thread, it did not land well with the other readers of nebula-dev. Edwin Park replied with a promising design:


We decided to open a bug and make a real contest out of it. So far we have the following proposals. If you can do better, help us out and you could win $100. The logo will be chosen by the readers of the Nebula-Dev mailing list (you can subscribe here).
