I’m not dead yet… Just couldn’t find the “inspiration” for writing this past month. Also, I’m working on the design of my future main web page (give me a break, I’m not a designer, I’m programmer).
Anyway, yesterday I was browsing through some Flash/ActionScript sites/blogs, looking for a logo for ActionScript for my new website and/or blog (I’m not sure yet how or where I will embed it – if I will embed it at all) and came across this blog entry from polygeek. Apparently he too would like to see Adobe come up with a logo for ActionScript.
I too feel like there should be some graphical representation of this language (other than the file icon). I know programming languages don’t really have logos, but, come on… what’s another logo for Adobe ? (among the number of logos it has for all the other stuff). And since ActionScript is the language for Flash, Flex and AIR, I feel it should have a rightful place among Adobe’s other technologies by having its own logo.
So far, polygeek’s logo is the best I’ve found (and I really like it) and actually I couldn’t really find another one. So maybe if enough people start using a logo (not necessarily this one) then Adobe will take notice. Who knows ?? Until then, here’s polygeek’s logo: http://polygeek.com/images/family_of_skills/ActionscriptIcon.zip. He actually put the .psd file at our disposal in case we would like to have it. Thank you polygeek.
