[OSM-talk] RFC - OSM contributor mark

[Gregory]

When I started reading the proposal I liked the idea. Some icon to say "I
use OSM data behind this, and I'm proud!" instead(well in addition to) the
compulsory attribution.

But the faded "teardrop" took me ages to find on the examples, and then I
just though "what, is that OSM?".
It doesn't remind me of OSM at all (although to be fair, it's new and not
in use yet). But it's small, not proud.

I'm also with the majority of people that disliked marker/teardrop icons in
previous design comps. (although I did like the 'armpit' design)
Markers are what people can add to OSM, not what it is.

I like the simplicity of the page the hammer tear links to, and the
presentation of the 3 points. Although I'm not a fan of 80% of the screen
being a photo, I'm also not a designer.
Has it been thought how the photos would be chossen, and when/how they
would be updated? Is it going to be another task like Image of the Week and
Map Task of the Month?
