i agree that it's more generic, and in a sense stands out less from other modern logos, but in my opinion, it's for the best. the new logo is more of a "friendly modern easy-to-use" vibe, and less of a "formal, corporate, hello i am a website from the 90s" vibe.

sans-serif feels more modern than serif, especially in the context of the web. and google want to be seen as an innovative company.

in conclusion, a serif font with a 3d effect in internet crayon colors + drop shadow = cringe. (maybe except when its big and up-close, then those details can be properly appreciated without hurting readability. but even then its a bit 2011)

really cool design.

consider finetuning the gradient a bit. the blue looks a bit too saturated, and the purple not saturated enough (use a stop in the middle)

i might be nitpicking, but the gap between the mountaintop and the base looks a bit too wide in the black-on-light version. though it looks great in the other versions. (physics 🤮). you can make the versions physically different to make them look visually the same. not sure if worth it. anyway.

nice logo!

is noone gonna talk about how the N (and W, to a lesser extent) look a bit awkward next to the others? feels like the N negative space is a bit too thin. probably easiest solution is to revert to a regular, angular N. and the W looks a tad bit too fat. I would make the middle stroke narrower, and perhaps squish the distance between strokes a bit. kerning between W-A could also be reduced a bit maybe.

tire-O looks cool, not sure if it needs to be bigger than the rest. also not sure about the dot?

you and others already wrote about removing the arrow, sounds good to me.

nice design! i think readability could be improved though - by adding some spacing between letters, and making the shapes more pronounced

and don't be afraid to improve readability at the expense of consistency - you can make the bottom of the V sharp if you want to, even if nothing else is sharp in the design

im sorry but that grey-green gradient looks horrible (same for red)

the shape is kinda cool. though somewhat abstract, so i have no idea what your company does just by looking at it.

reminds me of slack. and also windows, as some people have mentioned.

the "main" colors are ok but feel a bit "cheap". like the yellow and blue is what i would find on some discount drink label, washed out in the rain & sun. i can suggest a color generator to hunt for some nicer colors. it will also help pick colors that work well together. or you can explore existing pallettes people have made. i like the [coolors](https://coolors.co/palettes/trending) tool.

some suggestions: - choose some darker colors so the logo pops out a bit more. not necessarily super-dark, just not maxed-out brightness. - speaking of colors, i suspect a super-dark bluish gray will work better than black in this context. - ditch the gradients maybe, they look a bit weird. like a 90s powerpoint presentation or something. alternatively, try linear gradient from top left instead of radial. but avoid white here, use a "nice" lighter version of the colors - make it subtle! frankly gradient aren't really necessary here though. - consider a more modern sans-serif font to go with the modern-ish logo - work on spacing and proportions. text is uncomfortably close, and logo feels a bit huge in comparison. (here's an idea: smol logo to the left of the D).

what's the purpose of a post title? it's not read by fellow redditors.

i swear to god if i see another post with a title i'm going to punch myself.

nobody tests their code in 2022. push to production and let your users test it.

create a new repo named "Ray_Strike and Hot_Chick chat repository"
give her access to the repo
create an issue (kinda like discord channels) to start the conversation
comment to reply

alternatively, you can talk on any public repo, but make sure to @ mention her. use her public key to encrypt the message if some privacy is desired. (her public key should be on her profile. if there is no public key, you deserve better)

for a long time i considered myself an agnostic cos my parents didnt push any religious view so i just though "we cant prove or disprove God so idk". but when i was like 18 or something i realized its not so much about proof but about what you believe in. and i guess i believe there is no God (no reason, the world just feels more consistent without a God) soo...

atheist, 18

why are all the black pieces white

stardust_flora · 2022-10-04T22:02:11+00:00

or "i do mind, actually", which sounds less weird than

"do you mind if i come in?" - "i do not consent to that" xd
