I love the server but I still don't like the icon. Here are my submissions for possible alternatives:

Oh I really like the first one! It's simple enough it wouldn't look weird when made into a small logo.

Very nice.

I actually really like the last one, with the vague globe and trees, and I think it would work for the page header and other places where you can see it clearly, but I think the two more cartoonish ones would stand up better to being shrunk down to the browser's tab bar. Of those two I like #3 better than #1.

Okay, last one before I actually get back to work: ๐Ÿ™‚

Cropped and zoomed so it works as an icon with the mascot still discernable, and looks nice when the server masks it into a circular shape, but you can still see the curvature so that the "world" theme is faintly present.

I really like the first one, it has quite a playful feeling to it.

Some quick stuff I put together roughly based on these:

(Maybe wanted the ears in the circles, but scrapped these up real quick, so yk ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ)

[โ€“] mo_ztt 1 points 2 years ago

Yah I like these too. I like my world icons enough that I feel like maybe the official Lemmy graphic over one of my worlds would be nice, but also, I'm not sure if there's even interest on @Ruud 's part for any of this. So IDK how much more time to invest in it.

Also, I just like using AI to make icons; it's enjoyable for me. ๐Ÿ™‚

This is more like it. 3 & 6 are nice

[โ€“] mewpichu 1 points 2 years ago

My fav is #3. Simple enough that you can decipher it in a small format while clearly communicating what it is.

[โ€“] dan1101 1 points 2 years ago

Number 3 and 7 are both great. ๐Ÿ‘

[โ€“] ImTiagoSousa 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

1, 3, and 7 are the best. Did you make them yourself, or are they AI-generated?

[โ€“] mo_ztt 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

All 100% AI generated; if I made them myself they'd look like lumpy stick figures. ๐Ÿ™‚

[โ€“] ImTiagoSousa 1 points 2 years ago

Still looks great, nice one!
