[kdenlive] Kdenlive website and brand logo?

[Sam Muirhead]

Just one more thing when talking about logos:

As the leading professional open source NLE, the open nature of Kdenlive 
could perhaps be a useful point of difference if we were to place it on the 
right side of that pro vs amateur image 
(http://www.cameralibre.cc/wp-content/uploads/amateur-vs-pro.png).
It's not just 'a professional video editor', it's 'a Free/Libre Open Source 
professional video editor'.
 
The advantage of Kdenlive over AVID or Final Cut etc is that you can modify 
it, understand it, be involved in its development and perhaps use it in 
unusual ways which proprietary software might not let you.
So some element of adaptability, modularity, transparency, community or 
openness would be great to subtly incorporate in a logo.
A good example of this is the Wikipedia 
logo(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_logo), which shows its 
international global community, and invites you to help complete the puzzle.
I don't know if this is helpful (and I don't think Wikipedia's style suits 
Kdenlive!) but it's just one more conceptual layer to consider.
