Embassies Page: New design with a logo each

[pdarcey]

Each embassy needs a unique logo. (We could also use a default logo)

[spllr]

I propose logo in next release.
Let's make sure embassies look good with just text and coordinator.

@spllr When does this coordinator appear?

[bloomingbridges]

You can set a coordinator in the admin, then it will appear in the appropriate place.

[g7morris]

@bloomingbridges While yes I can set the coordinator's email in place, no ability to set twitter avatar to reflect who is coordinator. No text based information as well.

For example:

Delft
The Netherlands

Cordinator: Jon Modal
Email

[g7morris]

@bloomingbridges @spllr In addition, to not being able to show the Coordinator avatar,

the Coordinator Nickname, Summary and Description fields don't do anything when text is placed in them.

[g7morris]

Merging this ticket with #9

[g7morris]

@spllr How do we fix this and assign the coordinator/avatar object to be visible?

[spllr]

Should work. Will check. Email is set on embassy. Coordinator is the twitter handle without the @ sign

Send from mobile device

Ah. ok will update pages that need it.

[g7morris]

Whoops clicked wrong button. Logos are still needed. @pdarcey @bloomingbridges what is the status of this?

[bloomingbridges]

Well I know that for instance the Warsaw subsidiary has its own logo

Should we perhaps get in touch with the coordinators and ask them to send one over?
If we want wavy flags like the one in the design then someone needs to pay for a set of wavy flag pictures..
Perhaps I'll try coming up with another embassy icon, in the meantime I'm against just putting the Appsterdam logo on there.

[g7morris]

@pdarcey @spllr Can we have a ruling on this? What is the template for all new embassies?

[g7morris]

@bloomingbridges In addition to logo design, #108 outlined a design needed for the Summary and Description of each Embassy.

To sum up tickets #72, #100, #108 together

Each Embassy needs a design for:

-The flag/logo
-The Summary
-The Description
-The ability to show events beneath each one (1-3) from the meetup.com or other events page.
-URL link

[pdarcey]

We need to involve the embassies themselves in the design of their logo. We could go with something like the Warsaw design, which is basically the Appsterdam design with the addition of the name of the city + swapping Amsterdam's XXX symbol for the local symbol. But we should make sure the embassy coordinators are involved. I'm happy to move a little slowly on this.

[bloomingbridges]

Here's a mockup of the integration of the little function icons as discussed and a placeholder logo.

@pdarcey @spllr Thoughts, decisions?
