Hey guys, I had a few spare hours free this evening and since I'm set to plunge into revision for the coming month  I figured I'd have a shot at a potential logo for the competition before the work takes over; comments very welcome, see what you think of the first draft, click [[Possible iGEM Logo| here]] for full version:

hahahaha great stuff!  It's got my vote....could you make the 'i' a little darker though?

Nice work!  I like it.  And I agree with Melissa- I think the 'i' should stand out some more.  --[[User:Meaganl|Meaganl]] 18:09, 3 April 2006 (EDT)}

My favorite part of the logo is the gear, the rest is very busy.  I wanted to create something simpler that kept the gear motif, but make it from 'bacteria'. --[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 19:53, 7 April 2006 (EDT)

I agree Andrew - the first draft is far too busy. I like the idea of simple design and minimal color scheme - if we intend to use this for stationary, promotion, T-shirts etc. simple and stylist is good. I know what you mean about the gear motif - it is striking and in a way kinda has a reference to a biobrick-containing plasmid.
+
-
 
+
-
I've spent far too much time on fieworks and come up with far too many alternatives/tweaks to mine and Andrew's attempts so far. May as well throw them up now to gather people's opinion. Some have promise, others are just darn right OTT. They do illustrate a few minor features that could be thrown together to get it just right thou.

--[[User:Meaganl|Meaganl]] 13:41, 10 April 2006 (EDT) I did like that James's original idea had both the cell and the gear so I came up with this.  It's in the "skeleton" stage as I think there could be a bit more going on with the cell.  And now that I see the others I think I like the wider font for the text.  <br>

--[[User:Jamesbrown|James]] I think you're right, gear & cell together - here's a step back towards the original - we're getting there...

--[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 16:13, 10 April 2006 (EDT) Hmmm.  Is the bacteria too limiting?  Already some groups are already moving on to both yeast and plant cells.
+
-
 
+
-
*I like this one the best by far. Though I'm not sure about the dot of the "i" beeing a gear too. And maybe you want the other two gears actually be connected, ot give the impression that your machines actually work instead of having just uncoinnected gears in the cell -[[User:Jonas|jonas]] 16:26, 10 April 2006 (EDT)

--[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 15:16, 11 April 2006 (EDT) It's still too busy for my taste, but I'm a fan of more streamlined logos and wordmarks.  They tend to be more enduring.  iGEM last year hacked bacteria.  This year, we may get plants and yeast.  In five years, who knows?

--[[User:Jamesbrown|Jamesbrown]] 17:11, 11 April 2006 (EDT) How about this folks? After a little deliberation - this is simple, works well in greyscale and b&w and has the whole essence of iGEM in a gear and plasmid/biobrick concept.

all of these look great.  my two favourites are the most recent one from James (most professional) and the first one (most creative).  If on the first one you could turn down the contrast of the shading on the outside of the cell border while leaving the "i" of the DNA/nucleolus, i would believe it to be the uncontested champion :P  --[[User:Melissali|Melissa]]

Hey!  Where did the older logos go?!  The new logos are growing on me.  So many choices... :) --[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 17:56, 11 April 2006 (EDT)

Okay, just had a meeting with Randy and CSBI (computational and systems biology) to lock down the logo for posters, etc.  We have a winner!  The logo below will be the 'official' 2006 logo, except with the gear over the 'i' being black.  Thanks, James, and everyone for comments!  --[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 16:09, 12 April 2006 (EDT)

The ambassadors other plans for spring/summer (where they are, what they're doing, and how much time they can invest in the ambassador program).

===general remarks===
+
-
I think it doesn't make sense for me to fill in my name in some random american schools, since it doesn't really make a difference for me if I end up with  Duke or Penn state. We have to see how many european schools participate, to see how much of your presence is required there. Otherwise, i'd also like to see Japan [[User:Jonas|jonas]] 10:53, 25 Feb 2006 (EST)
+
-
 
+
-
I'm certainly willing to take one of the European schools, but as there are nearly no schools from Europe yet (I really hope this is going to change), I'm also perfectly happy with travelling a little further. I'd very much like to go to Asia (especially Japan), and I'd also do some schools from America (and Canada), if there are too many schools for too few US ambassadors. [[User:Tamara|Tamara]] 10:11, 26 Feb 2006 (UTC).
+
-
 
+
-
I am prepared to cover as many North American schools as necessary but will probably act mainly as a secondary for european schools.  Dibs on Singapore, though. --[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 12:38, 27 Feb 2006 (EST)
+
-
 
+
-
I guess that for new continental european schools, we just put in our names (the ETH guys), without setting prejudices who actually takes these teams. I did this for Ljubljana. [[User:Jonas|jonas]] 16:41, 1 March 2006 (EST)
+
-
 
+
-
I am very flexible. It makes sense for Jonas, Tamara and me to do European schools. For me, a special preference would be NCBS Bangalore. -- [[User:Robin|Robin]]
+
-
 
+
-
I'd really like to see Montreal and Toronto!  I wonder if we could coax any teams out of Australia/NZ (not to mention more European schools)...I heard they have some great engineering programs there but I'm not so sure about their biology programs?    -- [[User:Melissa Li|Melissa Li]]

We have space for people to crash if they want to visit Toronto. :) --[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 20:35, 21 March 2006 (EST)

This page should serve as a resource for the participants in the IGEM Ambassador Program to internally share ideas, organize ourselves, and reduce redundant email traffic.
