Comments edit

The following conversation is taken from Wikivoyage/Logo 2013/Submissions#Option 46 - Fantasy balloon:

These are the stylized balloon that my friend did (originally option 19).--Micru (talk) 18:23, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

The balloon is a surprise, and a really good one. It's simple, stylish, appropriate, and unique! That would be a great logo. --Peter Talk 00:39, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
What about Snakey in the cradle? Amqui (talk) 04:26, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
Unbelivable how we have arrived here from "Snake on a magic towel". Simply amazing! Good job and very nice result. --Andyrom75 (talk) 06:51, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
That balloon is so great idea! The colors are done so nicely. I also like the last snakey, it shows the W shape great. – linnea (talk) 09:09, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
I realy liked Balloon. Its surprising how Snakey lead us to such a nice design with great colors. I liked Cartoonish snakey too. It should be turned into mascot of WV. Well done Micru and friends.-Nizil Shah (talk) 16:26, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
I love them all, especially the balloon and the "burning" snake. The colors are great. There is no need to stick to the same colors again and again for such a project. I will definitely vote for these. --TMg 16:48, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

I think balloon should be submitted separately as it has a potential to be chosen as a logo. It has W and V nicely woven into ballon. Great colors. Simplicity. Recognisable. Appropriate to travel. I will vote for this even thaught I have submitted some ideas. Awesome. -Nizil Shah (talk) 16:53, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

I added a cropped version of the balloon. This should be definitely added to the voting as a separate entry. --TMg 17:34, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
Sepparated and added SVG. If anyone could crop that one too it would be great. The font is Arista 2.0 Alternate light.ttf --Micru (talk) 18:28, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
  Done. -- Rillke (talk) 19:45, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

I really, really like this submission. The icon reminds of a hot air balloon, which is probably the coolest way to travel, with plenty of thematic possibilities that we can make use of in various on-site promotions (Jules Verne-ish ideas coming to mind). It also reminds of a parachute, which makes me think of parachuting off into unknown lands. That dovetails really nicely with our motto of voy:Wikivoyage:Plunge forward! The color scheme is distinct, classy, and yet still fun. The snakey connection is just icing on the cake. --Peter Talk 20:42, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
