I completed a logo design for JGroups which is a project under the JBoss umbrella. What is it? “JGroups is a toolkit for reliable multicast communication.” It needed to show precision and accuracy in delivery. We used abstract airplanes in formation to convey this sense of precision.
I also added it to the JBoss Cafepress store and created some swanky desktop wallpapers for the project’s community.

A while back, the Visual Design team did a branding project for the Teiid project on the JBoss Community site. The name is a play on “eii” (Enterprise Information Integration). Turns out, there are very few names that contain eii in them. What the project team came up with is a type of lizard. I had some fun with working up the logo.
What does the project do? “Teiid is a data virtualization system that allows applications to use data from multiple, heterogenous data stores.”

I just completed the logo design for a renaming project for an open source project at work. HornetQ is a project that deals with messaging between applications. The project lead wanted something a bit on the “sporty” side.
Here is the logo:
Here is a better look at the logomark:

In my day job, I’m the Visual Design Lead for the JBoss Community site. I’ve been working for JBoss.org for several years. My role is is quite interesting in that I’m responsible for the brand and the usability of the site as well as I help the individual projects with their branding. I also help with the usability and user interface design on the projects from time to time too.
Anyway, that being said. I’ve spruced up the site a bit by adding spiffy new desktops for the site and several of the projects. We’ll be adding new ones from time to time as we complete branding exercies for projects.
I’ve been working on a logo and jersey design for a local paintball team “Force” preparing to participate in the NPPL series. Through feedback from the team owner, I designed a logo inspired by mega-rock bands of the 1970-80′s.
After the logo was design, I worked up a jersey reflecting the grungy/alternative nature of competitive paintball.
