Hi
Looking at the pictures posted so far I have this opinion :
- The text "mountain view CA, ..." is better looking on the mountais on the right side as it is more 'curvy', creates a nice synergy with the word 'mountain'.
- The SVG 'sun' is better on the east as, like Andreas said, it symbolises dawn and it also moves the focal point to the right where the name and the place of the conference is.
- 'California' label is redundant, there is already a number of labels on the banner so removing it will have positive effect
- I finally prefer the presence of the node-handles on the text, gives it the right vectorish look. It might be however misleading for people not familair with vector editing software. A topic to discuss then...
I took the version from Plácido Sousa and made some changes according to the preceding.

Basically i moved the SVG-sun, deleted the white halo on the base of the bridge and changed the color of the claim text.
Further remarks are welcome
Cheers Jozef

Just some modifications. I tried to keep the original idea which I liked.

Hi
I like the new position of the SVG "sun" and text.
As for the shadow on the svg logo it seems a bit odd (shadow on sun) but it gives the banner some depth and some more cartoonish look which I like.
However I think a thinner (1px) black border on the "SVG Open 2009" text would be nicer.

I also prefer fonts you used but since I don't have them I used the old one to illustrate my point.

Hi Jozef and others,

I changed the text positions and text contents, rearranged the "SVG-sun" and added shadows. I think the position of the sun is better in the east - since SVG is on the rise and not on the sunset ... - there is contradiction with the shadows, however ;-)
What do you think?
The final SVG version needs some tweaking of course (proper SVG fonts and code cleanup)
Regarding SMIL: if you really want to do something it should be very subtile and not annoying ...
Thanks for your input and feedback, Andreas

It may be worth converting the text to paths as Chrome seems to have trouble getting it in the right place.
