(From the PAL Team-Ada directory, Tiff files converted to GIF format, 22 KB and 13 KB resp.).  This logo, approved by AJPO Director Don Reifer and Ada9X Project Director Chris Anderson, is for use on all new Ada marketing materials. It combines the globe symbol used by the AdaIC with the logotype that reads, "Ada, The Language For a Complex World." 1994/10/18 (From the AdaIC ftp-server, 4 KB).

She was the assistant and patron of Charles Babbage; she wrote programs for his "Analytical Engine." (From the AJPO FTP site, 21 KB; compressed PostScript original, 69 KB)  Another classic picture: a portrait of Ada, Countess of Lovelace, acknowledged to be the world's first programmer, from the cover of John Barnes' book "Programming in Ada", 2nd edition, and used with permission of Addison-Wesley Publishing Company (Mr. Simon Plumtree). The original art was adapted from the portrait of Ada at the offices of John Murray, the London publishing company. (Contributed by Dirk Craeynest, 11 KB)  Probably the original color portrait of Ada mentioned above. Evelyn Silva scanned this from a picture she found "in the trash" in Lousianna, USA, and submitted it to the Ada Picture Gallery in October 2000. She wrote: On the bottom of the picture it says "LONDON PUBLISHED NOV 1 1838 FOR THE PROPRIETORS, No 18 & 19 SOUTHAMPTON PLACE, EUSTON SQUARE, NEW ROAD". In the lower left corner it says "Printered by Mc Queen". On the lower right of the picture its "Engraved By W. H. Mote". On the left "Drawn by A.E. Chaton R.A.". There was also a page with a bio on it. This was not in a book when I found it, it was loose along with some other Ladies of the Queens court. So I don't have any other info on it. It is an orginal print from its time, not a reproduction. (Contributed by Evelyn Silva, 46KB 631x786 JPEG)  A similar, but slightly different black&white portrait of Ada. (Contributed by Dirk Craeynest, original from Axel Nennker, 256 KB)  The picture of Ada that was given to many of the people on the original Ada committee back in the early 1980's. No restrictions on its use are known. (Contributed by Dirk Craeynest, original from John A. N. Lee, 54 KB)  Two undated letters from Ada Lovelace (left) together with Babbage's son's instructions for operating a section of the Difference Engine and the medal awarded to Babbage in 1824 by the Astronomical Society of London. The first letter on paper hallmarked 1838 and attributed in a later hand to 1840 or 1841, asks for an acquaintance's address: it is addressed 'Dear Mr Babbage' and signed 'A.L.', and refers to an impending visit to London. Neither letter mentions the subject of calculating. (Contributed by Dirk Craeynest, original from http://www.londonmall.co.uk/babbage, 114 KB 535x699 JPEG)  Other Ada pictures

A series of pictures taken in Ada, Minnesota, by Mike Kamrad. He wrote: As for background info about the pictures, they were taken in mid-July 1997 while I was visiting Fargo, North Dakota to participate in a beer judging contest. Ada, Minnesota, is located in the Red River valley, in northwest Minnesota. The Red River is noted as being one of the few rivers in USA to flow north, where it empties into Lake Winnepeg, Canada. The Red River valley is one of the flattest places in the world. I put all pictures together in a whimsical html web page, about Ada Boy (the vanity tag on my car) going to Ada.
