Yes, more good news. First one is that StupidZombie has a logo; This all product of the hard work of DrRommstein (at ITT, Idaho) and after some time he came with a logo and theme that really reflects the spirit of this project. But I would rather quote him on the explanation of the logo and how he came with the idea.
“Blockhead” as I lovingly call the mascot is a zombie done in classic green, and sucken eyes. The eyes are a little off to relay the message he might not be all that bright. Blockhead used to be a bellhop before he was bitten by zombie some time ago. The bellhop uniform speaks of servitude, friendliness and at your “beck-n-call.” To quote wikipedia:
“The job’s name is derived from the fact that the hotel’s front desk would ring a bell to summon an available employee, who would “hop” (jump) to attention at the desk in order to receive instructions.”
Sounds like a good association for what the StupidZombie program does to me.
I chose royal purple for the uniform – i because when paired with green it just kind of speaks of fun. Purple is also a unique color that not alot of places in society use especially for bellhops. It provides a nice contrast to the other colors and is very complimentary.
The light blue is very upbeat and again speaks of “clear blue skys” and creativity – good energy.
The circles are something I envisioned from the start – maybe its because the main vowel sounds in Stupid and Zombie are o’s. Maybe its a full moon. I know that circles represent often wholeness, completeness, etc. Anyway I think they work real well together.
My last thoughts on a logo: Somewhere inside myself I always think a logo should be cool enough that I would want to wear on a t-shirt, a hat, have a poster of it, just be really cool looking. I think, at least for me, that I really dig this logo. and would be happy to wear any swag with this logo on it.
I think the previous paragraph explains it all 
. But now it is time for you to meet “Blockhead” the official mascot of StupidZombie!:
Blockhead, StupidZombie official mascot
Great stuff. Now about the code, I have put together a Java Webstart shortcut for those of you who want to kick the tires and play with the application. No known bugs at this point, but if you find one then please tell me about it and I’ll fix it, and core functionality works. For the release 1.0 I plan to finish the look and feel of the Java GUI and this website and then will focus on adding more functionality.
Run it, enjoy it and eat some brains (OK, only if you’re a zombie)!
