Here are some proposed graphics.

EDIT: I've now made a repository on GitHub, so that you can download the graphics and use them for your communities and projects. There's even an Etsy store selling stickers now.

this looks great imo!!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

These are great!

My best idea for a logo was the lemming-gerbil humping the shit out of a planet. It was... not a good idea.

So, uh, is this a response to the ISIS thing?

Any logo is better than the current one tbh.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Adorable, I love the ones with the earth in the background.

Everyone should start setting this to their profile picture on Reddit before we bail out forever. :)

I miss the old logo. It looked very old internet. The kind of thing I'd see on the cover of a vaporwave album.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Ohh.. I really like these! If you want to do a banner for [email protected], that would be awesome! We need one...

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago

I'm complimented by the request!

I recommend... Checking in with your community, first. I've always found when there is a group of folks who get together, and create together, form some really amazing bonds. So perhaps give your team on your community a swing at a banner first.

And, if no one puts their hand up, let me know in a month, and I'll see what I can do!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

If we're talking about the logo, I vote for #4

For banner, I'd say #1 or #2

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I agree.

Number four just hits different.

So apparently they passed it and used the most basic of available versions.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It makes sense to go for simpler.

Also, the banners might need some extra work, as I think the various community pages might need a level of customization to reflect their local work (ie: listing the /c/support url).

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

#2 looks a bit forced imo. #1 is better.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago
[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I like the last two, although the "world" part is less obvious.

congrats man, your logo is now showing on this site

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty hyped. I still have some edits to do and items to add/shift, and to send over to Ruud later. But this is going both on the fridge and into the resume! ๐Ÿคฃ

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago

Dont really like any of them. They are to busy for no real benefit. The logos are not unique enough that you would instantly recognize them. Because they are not better than the current generic earth picture I say we just leave it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago

love them! much better than the current one id say, its got too much going on.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Why a mouse? Seems a few Lemmy instances have a mouse as a logo / mascot.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I believe it's supposed to be a lemming, but the ears are way too big.

Ah! It's an inherited piece of artwork, based on the mother instance, err, or the original instance of Lemmy.ml and the open source project itself. It's a bit of a nod to the musician, the Mario character, an old video game, and, of course, the adorable critter.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

The Mario character is named after the musician, so I found that point odd when I first read it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Excellent to know. Thank you!

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I like #1 and #2 for the banner but the globe should be different colors than the mouse

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)
[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, that looks great! Having slightly different colours makes a big difference

No reason why it couldn't be!

I think [email protected] would love a themed logo, with extra whiskers and cat ears! โ™ฅ๏ธ

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Got 6 cats in my farm house back home in Australia and the number of mice they kill a week is in the double digits. Before I got them I had a burning hatred towards the little buggers.
