Cotswolder Celebrates the Spring Bluebell
August 11th, 2008 | Posted by Pauline Kenny
Cotswolder has a new look and a new logo - based on the spring bluebells. The look for this blog is mostly the old look, with a little of the new look here by mistake. I will get the blog and photo gallery changed over tomorrow. It is exhausting working on colors :)
The Cotswolder logo was designed in July 2008 by Ginés Valera (www.mediacomm.es and www.lumina.es (under construction) - email: info@mediacomm.es).
Ginés is Lumina on FeaturePics, a great site for buying graphics and photos to use on your websites.
Ginés lives in Spain. The logo for Cotswolder is a spiral of bluebells. My favorite time of year in the Cotswolds is the spring when the woods are filled with bluebells and Ramsons (also called Garlic Flowers). I sent Ginés some of my spring flower photos and this is what he came up with for our logo. I love the spiral and the gentle colors and being reminded of spring in the Cotswolds.
The original look - photo in the header, greens and golds.
The new look - bluebell spiral logo, purples and blues - with a little green that Chris suggested (great suggestion!).
This is more fun than rearranging the living room furniture! I still have to finish my main Towns and Villages section (new deadline - end of August).
