POV-Ray Logo Competition - Voting
Anybody using POV-Ray may vote.
I hope as many as possible will!
o The Logos
You can view the logos from here:
http://rsj.mobilixnet.dk/povlogos/
o The Rules
You make a reply to this message in which
you specify your priorities.
At the 1st priority you write the number
of your favorite logo. At the 2nd priority
you write the number of your second
favorite, and so on...
You may specify all 15 priorities, or you
may specify some of them only, but at
least one.
If you specify some of the priorities
only, the fields that you specify must be
the uppermost ones, and the fields that
you leave blank must be the lowermost ones.
You may specify one logo per priority only.
Note that although some of the logos are
quite similar, you should vote for both
versions if you like both versions. Nothing
is taken for granted.
If something is unclear, please tell me.
The voting period ends May 17
o Vote Here
Use the following in your reply:
1 st priority: logo __
2 nd priority: logo __
3 rd priority: logo __
4 th priority: logo __
5 th priority: logo __

1 st priority: logo _6_
The choices are good but I have a major problem with them in that they are best
as a stylization of a logo yet I can't pick out the ones I think are real good
as also being real good for a POV-Ray logo. Sorry, hope you all understand my
meaning here.
Well, let me explain anyway. The reflective sphere over checkered plane still
almost seems the choice although it's the thing probably least wanted so that
there is a change. Then the more artistic ones are lacking in suitable
connection with the workings of POV in my opinion. The in-between kind make the
most sense based on that idea and still they don't quite fit what I could
truthfully say would make a good logo.
Either all that or I'm just befuddled or whatever... :-)
Please take no offense at my viewpoint anyone.
Bob

I forgot to mention that although you can
freely decide how many priorities you want
to specify, I encourage everybody to specify
as many priorities as possible. That is more
likely to give results that more people are
satisfied with.
By specifying only a few priorities, you say
that if no of your few favorite logos win,
then you don't care which of the remaining
logos that win.
In other words, if you want more influence,
specify more priorities.

Rune

Bad grammar, it should say:
"Anybody who uses POV-Ray may vote."
Is that better?

Well, I could begin to tell you the rules of the competition, so you might
understand that it is limited how complicated the logos can be, and I could
inform you that many of the logos were actually made in POV-Ray, but I won't
do all that, because I think Bill DeWitt's comment says it all:
I don't see your entry...

The purpose of a logo is *not* to demonstrate the software's abilities.
There are demos scenes for that.
IMO, a logo must *express* what the software *is*, not what it
produces. In our case, I think the logo must meet 2 requirements :
- express the nature of Pov (a raytracing engine)
- specifically referring to Pov (but how ?), so the logo is'nt
suitable to ANY raytracer.
Meeting these criterias (plus others) is far from easy, but some
logos does. Aside, showing what pov can do within a 64*64 canvas
must be close from impossible.
And, as others said :
I didn't see your entry...

Now now guys, I'm sure Ryan was just expressing his opinion as was I too. I
never could think of a POV logo so I didn't even try. I was really not saying
they were bad choices, I must emphasize that. But the really good ones were
just simply not fitting my idea of a POV logo/icon.
I still like #6 best because of the implied text and 3D but some others would
probably do for that as well. Okay so everyone using POV-Ray was invited to
vote, good judges or not :-)

Looking at the votes, it seems that they get very scattered among many of
the logos. There's doesn't seem to be any clear winner.
I propose that if the winner of the voting wins only by a few points
compared to the second and third, a second voting is performed for the
most voted ones.
Only a suggestion...

A complementary suggestion : let's not decide for a logo just
after the vote, but start a discussion about the ones that were
clearly deemed "best". None of the logos seems mature enough,
and they need some more improvement (individual or collective
improvement).

Actually, many logos don't even express what the software is. Sure, it
would be great if a logo succeeded at that, but I don't think it is
necessary.
Also, many of these logos (such as #15) are just black & white outlines.
Such a logo could easily be extended into 3D with detailed textures and
complex lighting. But in that case the logo doesn't depend on the fancy
lighting.
Hey... I just noticed that #15 is a modified yin-yang symbol. That is very
interesting. :-)

I concur. I think that if there are several good ones, say for example, the
top 3 or 5, they be discussed and go "back to the drawingboard" for another
round. As of this post, the winner is #6, with 6 votes; close behind is #11,
with 5 votes; then #4 and #5, with 3 votes; #3, with 2 votes; and #12, with
1 vote.

As I explained in the reply to Warp, nothing is left to chance, and
therefore the result of the voting really should show which logo most people
are satisfied with. Unless there's a very close run I think such a
discussion is unnecessary. If the discussion is made we risk that the ones
who are best arguing in a discussion are the ones who decide which logo
wins.

What do you mean by individual and collective improvement?
If we change the logos *after* the voting, then it is not anymore the logos
that people voted for. Therefore I think it is too late to improve the logos
now. I may be forced to change my opinion on this though.

That's my impression too, though it seems like the winner will be logo 6 or
logo 11.

A second voting is performed (and a third, and a fourth...), but people
doesn't have to vote again.
That's the whole point with this priority system.
Let me try to explain how the winner is chosen:
There are several "rounds".
In the first round we only look at people's first priorities when we count
the votes.
The logo(s) with the fewest votes are excluded from the next round.
In round two the first priorities are counted again, but for those people
who have their first priority set to one of the logos that have been
excluded, the next priority is the one that counts.
Again, the logos with the fewest votes are excluded from the next round.
Keep doing rounds until all logos but one is excluded. That's it.
What happens is that the votes goes from being distributed between many
different logos to being distributed between fewer and fewer logos until all
the votes are for the same logo. Of course some votes are "lost" in the
process because not all people specify all priorities.
It works the same way as if several votings had been made, except that
people need only to vote once, because they specify all their priorities at
once.
I hope this explanation is good enough.
Greetings,
Rune

Actually, many logos don't even express what the software is. Sure, it
would be great if a logo succeeded at that, but I don't think it is
necessary.
Also, many of these logos (such as #15) are just black & white outlines.
Such a logo could easily be extended into 3D with detailed textures and
complex lighting. But in that case the logo doesn't depend on the fancy
lighting.
Hey... I just noticed that #15 is a modified yin-yang symbol. That is very
interesting. :-)

If you follow the rules you will get different results.
The rules I refer to are those I explained in my reply to Warp.

I still don't like this. It's very possible that the second and perhaps
the third miss winning by just a bit. It's unfair to discard them.

Exactly. One thing is the logo, another thing is how it is presented.
That's why I made those low-res black and white versions required. So one
could see what the logos would look like in their simplest forms.

Indeed!
Who made that logo anyway?

If voting isn't fair, then what *is* fair?
Isn't voting the only way in which all people have evenly great influence on
the results?
Won't discarding the results of the voting be to doubt the judgment of
people?
What other options than voting are there?
Discussion? Many people have voted/will vote in this competition, but only a
fraction of those will join a discussion if one were to be made. I am sure
of that.
And what will the result of such a discussion be? Will the people who have
the best arguments decide which logo wins? Or will there simply be arranged
another voting?
Why make a voting more than once?
The only case it would give different results was if people had changed
their mind for some reason. Why would people suddenly change their minds?
Besides, I don't think a second voting could attract near as many votes as
this first voting. I think people take this competition serious because it
has been planned for a long time, because they think it is a one-time-event,
and because they think the result will decide which logo will be the logo of
POV-Ray (though not necessarily officially). If people find out that we
don't follow up on the result, then I think they will take this whole thing
less seriously, and therefore I don't think we could get nearly as many
people to vote a second time. Sometime one just ought to be a little
consistent.
I would like to hear many opinions on this subject so I know what other
people think. I hope those who agree will also reply, so I get to know it.
Greetings,
Rune
