Update logo for compatibility with Project Browser

Is there any problem with this?

RE: Question from @ivnish "Is there any problem with this?" -- Are you asking from a technical perspective or a visual perspective?

If the latter, it's not clear to me why a dump truck is being used to represent Backup and Migrate.

I get the idea of using a truck to move something from one place to another (migrate), but why a dump truck? IMHO, a dump truck implies carting away debris more than it does moving to a new location.

Why not use a moving truck or a flatbed truck or something that conveys a more positive image of moving to a new home? Or, an image of a safe or storage locker to convey the idea of backing up a site for safekeeping?

Most of the proposed module logos have been so creative and represent the modules very well. I found this one a bit jarring.

I hope this helps.

I asked because this simple issue is blocker of a new 5.1.0 release

@ivnish -- OK, thanks for the clarification.

I see now your question needs to be addressed by the maintainers and was not a question for general discussion about the logo itself.

The truck is backing up in the image, so that conveys that part. But I agree that it's not easy to understand at a glance.

Yea, I agree, this shouldn't be a blocker for the 5.1.0 release.

Agreed. Project Browser is still in alpha and not used by many sites yet. I think 5.1.0 should be released.

Hi @camhoward. Thanks for the inquiry. The Project Browser team did not introduce the dump truck. That was part of the existing logo for Backup_migrate. We resized the logo, etc to make it comptable with Project Browser. The logo we provided is a suggestion, your team is welcome to change the logo to better reflect the module if you wish. The requirements for the logo can be found at bit.ly/maintpb. Let us know if you have any questions.

Hi @leslieg -- Thanks, I understand. It seems I misunderstood the question from @ivnish and thought he might have been opening a discussion about the logo itself. Since that was not the case, the maintainers should proceed with whatever they think best.

I committed the logo files to the repo, which is a rendition of the existing logo file.

We can discuss updating the project's logo in a separate issue.

Thanks everyone.
