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.

I like the bottom one I think. And number 3.

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

congrats but did you at least get a shoutout?

I personally like the little lemming logo, but there could be a benefit of a more universally liked aesthetic that isn’t a rodent.

We need one of Apollo’s icon guys.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Oh, I love their work.

One user exported all of their icons. I've been flipping through them ever since.

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

It won't help anyone to make a choice, but I love them all !

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I like the three last most in order 3 5 4. I do also really like 1 and 2 but the texture on the planet makes them difficult and a bit weird to look at in a small size, at least from the look at the post thumbnail.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

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

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

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

[–] [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).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Does lemmy have polls? It could be useful to see which one people like the most

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

congrats man, your logo is now showing on this site

[–] [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! 🀣

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

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Excellent to know. Thank you!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year 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.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year 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!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year 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! β™₯️

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year 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.
