PDP-6 Logotype
[edit]What was the source material you used for the PDP-6 logotype? Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 11:33, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Larsbrinkhoff: The typeface DEC used is called Hellenic Wide JF. I used a PDP-4 brochure for positioning. DigitalIceAge (talk) 14:46, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you! As you may have seen, there's a different logotype on later PDP-6 computer. But I haven't found any photo with a good view. If you do, I'd be interested to hear about it! Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 19:24, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hmm, I can just barely make out the typeface in this picture and it looks like Hellenic Wide. I'll have to do some more spelunking in Google Images to find the later revision's badge... DigitalIceAge (talk) 21:56, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- The first page of this brochure from mid-'65 does indeed show a different font. Looks like the same one used on early PDP-8s, which makes sense because they're both from the same year. Will have to use fontsinuse.com to crossrefernce what it might be. DigitalIceAge (talk) 22:04, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for looking into this!
- I have a collection of old logotypes for your consideration: https://github.com/larsbrinkhoff/t-shirts/tree/master/pictures I see you have LMI and PDP-11 done already. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 06:09, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: Awesome! I will strongly consider it. If you'd like I can create those exact lockups for Lisp Machines and the PDP-11 too. DigitalIceAge (talk) 06:13, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks, I could hardly decline such a kind offer. As you can surmise from the URL, I have collected those for making t-shirts for myself, and friends and family. Would you allow me to use your designs? Someone already made a nicer PDP-10 logotype: https://github.com/PDP-10/documents/blob/master/shirts/sharpjs-pdp-10/digital-pdp-10.svg The vertically stacked format look better on a shirt. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 06:23, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: By all means, use them however you wish – wouldn't feel right holding them hostage since they're not exactly my logos, heh. I agree vertical stacks are the way to go on a T-shirt (the opposite of infoboxes as it turns out...) I will upload the lion's share to Commons, barring maybe that Interlisp print with the graphics and the DEC LARS report, which I might upload to MEGA. DigitalIceAge (talk) 06:30, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: Data Disc done. :) DigitalIceAge (talk) 20:21, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks, it looks great! FYI. My interest in Data Disc is two-fold: 1. a drive was used at the Stanford AI lab to store bitmaps for 32 video feeds, distributed to 58 raster displays. And 2. an early version of MIT's ITS system used two Data Disc drives to store files. The other logos I collected have similar connections. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 12:35, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: That reminds me that I own one of these beasts. Geez, I can only imagine the racket they made while spinning... BTW, I finished Foonly, III, and Systems Concepts before conking out last night. DigitalIceAge (talk) 15:43, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Awesome! I'm snarfing these to my GitHub repository. Do you want to be credited as DigialIceAge or something else? Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 15:48, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: Glad you like them! "DigitalIceAge" works for me. DigitalIceAge (talk) 16:10, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: Knocked a whole bunch out:
- Interface Message Processor placard.svg
- Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc. logo.svg
- Digital Equipment Corporation stacked logo.svg
- IMLAC logo.svg
- Evans & Sutherland old logo and wordmark.svg
- Datapoint logo alt.svg
- Lisp Machines logo vertical full.svg
- PDP-11 masthead recreation 1.svg
- PDP-10 masthead recreation 1.svg
- PDP-9 masthead recreation attempt 1.svg
- The remaining two (Interlisp and DEC LARS) will take longer because they're more complex. DigitalIceAge (talk) 22:55, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! They are very nice! Hey, never mind the LARS report. I only stashed that photo away because I thought it was funny, and it's somewhat vaguely related. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 05:17, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: ...And here's a link to the Interlisp book cover. I had to resort to autotracing it because the doodles were too complex, but I used a high quality scan from Bitsavers. With some Waifu2x trickery I think it turned out better than I expected. Plus at T-shirt scale it shouldn't be too obvious, the low-ish fidelity: https://mega.nz/file/q753VCIb#BrJNJT9xrb4p4TK7j0mZhWPNuFw_RL1QsWCqTebogSk You're welcome about the logos BTW. This link was extremely helpful in finding the colors for the PDP mastheads. It might come in handy for you in your T-shirt making pursuits. :) DigitalIceAge (talk) 06:32, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- The book cover came out very nice. If you'd like a bit of a challenge, I have "Computer Corporation of America", or CCA. They are on my radar because they used to have an office in the same building as Project MAC, and they sold their own Emacs version. I haven't found any high resolution images. Google gives us two bad ones: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22computer+corporation+of+america%22&tbm=isch Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 10:33, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Larsbrinkhoff: Done! Wasn't too bad. I tried scraping the PDFs uploaded to the company's old website via archive.org, but stupidly they only embedded bitmaps of their logos in those PDFs. DigitalIceAge (talk) 19:53, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you very much! That's all I have. :-) Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 07:08, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

- Very handsome. :) I'll see if I can make a vector—is there a more head-on picture? DigitalIceAge (talk) 06:52, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
Keycap legends for historical keyboards
[edit]Hello again! I'm trying to make replicas of some historical keyboards, especially the "Knight keyboard" in use at the MIT AI lab. Would you like to help me making vector images for each keycap? Here are some photos, but I may be able to get better ones: http://xahlee.info/kbd/knight_keyboard.html I'm happy to pay you for your work. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 06:37, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

Fyre Festival Logo
[edit]Hi, why have you changed the logo colors? The logo was on commons, why changing it? Datsofelija (talk) 06:16, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Datsofelija: All primary sources that I could find (archives of the Fyre Festival website, flyers, social media accounts etc.) show the logo in black and white only. I'm pretty sure the orange zigzag of that upload was made up by a third party. DigitalIceAge (talk) 06:39, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
Font of OS-2 logo
[edit]Hi! I am the former "Comrade-yutyo" guy. Do you know the name of the font used in OS/2 logo? VectorVoyager (talk) 08:58, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- @VectorVoyager: Obstensibly it's Helvetica (Neue) Condensed Bold, but no foundry's version of that font matched the countours of the actual letterforms used on the OS/2 box, so I traced the letterforms from scratch. I've searched high and low through PDFs and PostScript files on Google, Archive.org, and Discmaster.textfiles.com (RIP) for an official vector copy of the logo to no avail. If you could find it, you have my sincerest gratitude. DigitalIceAge (talk) 15:28, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. Abzeronow (talk) 16:04, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

IBM Quantum System Two.svg
[edit]Hi. I want to get advice from you regarding metallic background for vector recreations. I used gradient in File:IBM Quantum System Two.svg, attempting to replicate the metallic texture in the original product. I ask you because your File:IBM Personal Computer badge recreation.svg is used in restorations. VectorVoyager (talk) 15:49, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- "I ask you because your File:IBM Personal Computer badge recreation.svg is used in restorations". Wow, is it really?! I'd like to see those restorations.
- Here is the YouTube tutorial I used to create the brushed metal effect in Inkscape. It's essentially a modified "Film Grain" complex filter (Filter > Image Effects > Film Grain) with the x parameter of the Turbuluence filter set to around 0.025 or so and the K1 and K3 parameters of the Composition filter set to around 0.1 or so. This creates a relatively realistic brushed metal effect over a subltle gradient like yours. Hope this helps! DigitalIceAge (talk) 16:38, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, my memory failed me. I disremembered restoration video of IBM PCjr made by 8-Bit Guy. But I have seen your vectorization works being used in many YT videos. Thanks for the tips! I also use Inkscape so its very useful.--VectorVoyager (talk) 10:44, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Vector stripe display issue
[edit]Hey! On thumbnails of Mediawiki there is a display issue with File:American Computer and Peripheral Inc.svg that I made with Inkscape. When its in thumbnail preview its seen as gray rather than with stripes. Do you know what causes it and how can it be solves/shall it be solved by Mediawiki team? VectorVoyager (talk) 08:59, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- It's a fault inherent to the MediaWiki SVG renderer. I don't think there's any way around it, unfortunately. It looks fine on a high DPI display, such as an iPhone; I can see the stripes on mine. Thanks for making that SVG, btw! DigitalIceAge (talk) 09:18, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
