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

Trying to get a picture with smoother anti-aliasing for the site logo. The jagged edges really bug me.

SVG file: https://pastebin.com/6ywmisZK

[–] vsp 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good edit. Thing is, I think there's some compression going on in the backend, so even with an .SVG file, it might be somewhat complicated.

I'm going to probably make a quick GitHub page for the editing files with an .SVG, so the mod team, admin team and community managers can access all the files and edit them to spec.

But you're right: the pixelation on the edges is causing my artist OCD to flare up. Good suggestion, Margot!

No problem!

We need one of Apollo’s icon guys.

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

Am I the idiot or is it really a penis next to its right cheek on the images with the globe? Maybe both.

[–] vsp 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh dear. Now that you mention it, I kinda see it too. Thanks for the flag: I'm... going to give it a think about how to shift it so that... isn't there. Maybe in the second version.

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

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

[–] Drunemeton 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[–] vsp 4 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.

[–] Drunemeton 2 points 1 year ago

Excellent to know. Thank you!

[–] samus12345 2 points 1 year ago

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

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

[–] nH95sp 3 points 1 year ago

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

[–] shotgun_crab 3 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

looks clean and nice. good work.

[–] phillycodehound 3 points 1 year ago
[–] GustavoM 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] k0mprssd 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] wit 2 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...

I'm digging the 2nd one. I like the 3D effect, though fear that it would be lost on smaller versions of the logo.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

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

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

[–] zerozaku 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

congrats but did you at least get a shoutout?

[–] vsp 2 points 1 year ago

Oh! I got a shoutout on Mastodon.

With all of the bits and bobs in flux, it's all good. I'm already noted on the Mastodon instance and on the blog, and for other projects, so it's all good.

We're probably due for a monthly update in late July, when things quiet down and things get sorted. So, I think a shoutout makes the most sense then (or maybe later).

[–] Drunemeton 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Here’s the logo with a brighter palette. In fact it was created using Mastodon Purple (#563ACC) as the root color for the new blue, and green colors so that "Ruud Worlds" harmonize.

I like the first one!
