[Website] Create subsidiary logos for Arrow subprojects

[ianmcook]

Describe the enhancement requested

Some of the Arrow subprojects (Flight, Flight SQL, ADBC, and nanoarrow) do not have official logos. However, many users of these subprojects display unofficial subsidiary logos to represent them. These are typically created by adding the subproject name to the Arrow logo. This practice goes against the guidelines for usage of the Arrow logos but is nonetheless quite common.

We should consider creating a set of official subsidiary logos to represent Flight, Flight SQL, ADBC, and nanoarrow.

@ianmcook I have prepared this sequence of logos for Apache Arrow projects (Flight, Flight SQL, ADBC, NANOARROW, among others). The links in the PDF are only for use by user @voltrondata.com.

Feel free to comment on the improvement of the logos; I am happy to collaborate!

Hi @ianmcook and @Kellynunez,

I like these subproject logos! Since I'm doing a lot of things with Flight it would be useful to have a Flight specific logo, it seems in these renderings there is inconsistency between "Flight RPC" and "Flight".

If these could be made available for use I would appreciate it very much.

Thank you for creating them.

Hi @rustyconover. There was a discussion in a recent Arrow community meeting about these subproject logos, and the consensus was that we'd like to see more options with different visual styles before moving forward.

Hi @ianmcook, I saw this issue in the Arrow meeting nodes and it said to comment here, so I did. I'd be happy with anything that gets produced I'm sure!

Cheers,

Rusty

Hi @ianmcook and @rustyconover,

Thanks for the feedback, Rusty. I'm glad you like the initial logos. Ian, I appreciate the community's desire to see more options, and I think it's an excellent idea.

I'm happy to take on this task. I can create several additional designs for Flight, Flight SQL, ADBC, and nanoarrow. Starting with these four will allow us to see the differences in text widths and establish a consistent style before moving on to other subprojects.

Please let me know if this approach works for you, and I'm available for any feedback or suggestions. 🖌️
