1930's poster art (such as 1920's advertising and WPA posters) might also be an inspiration. Preferred colors would be red oxide / red / brown ("boxcar red") colors, yellowed paper, darker colors for the dirt and grease that goes along with railroading. Photos on both pages could inspire a logo based on abstract figure hanging on a boxcar with the lantern showing the strong color.īecause switch lists are not as used in the modern day, I'd prefer train images should be older (1960's and before, even 1920's and 1930's) rather than modern.
There were explicit signals for waving the lantern. * switchman's lantern (or railroad crewman swinging lantern) The lantern was a common symbol - every switchman had them to signal to an engineer in the distance when to move the train.

* the switchlists themselves (see 1950's switchlist.jpg) No idea how to make such an icon identifiable. A switchman hanging on a car (either realistic or in silhouette) could both convey action and express what the program's for.

It hosts Arduino Libraries and Sketches all in a single source code repository and downloadable file and is a place where people can contribute their own ModelRailroad sketches and. It includes a search feature along with a picture box, so you. This project is about Model Railroading with Arduinos. It keeps track of your model railroad inventory. I've used a side photo of a boxcar as a logo in the past. Train inventory is a inventory system for Model Railroaders. * freight cars / boxcars as the objects being manipulated. I've attached one photo of a handwritten switch list from the 1950's. SwitchList can generate several different styles of switchlists ranging from hand-written lists on official forms to computer-generated dot-matrix lists that modern railroads use. It automatically generates realistic switchlists - lists of where different freight cars need to move - to let the crews running trains simulate real jobs. SwitchList is for serious model railroaders who want to run their model railroad layout like a real railroad - think Dungeons and Dragons for model trains. Icon should be all-picture, and without text in the typical Mac app icon style.
I'd prefer *not* to have an icon on a rounded corner frame - that would be appropriate for iPhone, but not for the Mac App Store. I'd prefer to match Apple Human Interface Guidelines - generally realistic images on a transparent background, perspective or 3d, with colors that will stand out on the Dock with a light or dark backdrop. I need a 512x512 icon suitable for the store, and a 128x128 icon suitable for the Dock, derived from the same conceptual image. I'd like to get a more professional looking icon to represent the program. I'm planning on releasing SwitchList, an open-source model railroad program, on the Apple Mac App Store as a free app.
