[Pharo-project] We are looking for two logos for the Pharo Consortium
Hi Pharo is looking for a logo for the Consortium Member - As a member of the consortium we would like companies to be able to put a logo on their web site. - we would like to have the same for the association member. Does anybody want to propose some logos? Pharo Consortium Member is a real challenge :) Stef
Where does the name 'Pharo' come from? How should it be pronounced? Is the thing inside the O supposed to be a lighthouse or a beetle? On Wed, Oct 24, 2012 at 8:29 PM, Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr> wrote:

From some brainstorming session in early 2008... the idea is that it is a mix of the Portuguese Farol and the french Phare for light-house.
How should it be pronounced?
I pronounce it with a non-english "a"... but there is no standard. (like in spanish Mate, the tea stuff, not like the english mate)

Lighthouse. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2LeNBY_5gk -- Marcus Denker -- http://marcusdenker.de
Interesting, I expected that it is based directly on the name of the Pharos island where lighthouse of Alexandria was located :-) Btw. do we have got an SVG version of the Pharo logo? -- Pavel On Thu, Oct 25, 2012 at 11:33 AM, Marcus Denker <marcus.denker@inria.fr> wrote:

-- Pavel In a sense. The PDF included in pharo-logos.zip on http://www.pharo-project.org/pharo-download/media-files can be converted to SVG format using free tools like Inkscape.
