These are my takes on alternate Sync logos for Lemmy (I made that rat from a while ago)
The logo for Sync is so tied to Reddit for me personally, that it was hard to think of ways to translate it to Lemmy (or the Fediverse overall).
Orange and Blue are signature colours for Reddit, but Lemmy doesnt necessarily have a colour scheme. Nor should it. that’s up to the instance operators to choose, making their community unique.
I also like the general Fediverse pentagon logo, but it can look quite busy…
I did what I could. I’m an average designer at best ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Why not just keep the original one? There’s no reason for people to keep the Reddit app installed anymore
It’s about the symbolism of the color change, the fresh start
I really like the middle one.
Middle is cleanest, the separation of the top right and bottom left elements makes it very readable.
I like the middle Fediverse logo. The bottom right one is a little swastika-y.
Just wanna add that I didn’t see it as swastika until it I read the comments. I still don’t.
Uh, ignore the pride-themed swaztika with an extra arm
😂 I actually like it 😭
do you want to become an artist aswell?
Follow-up question: what are your thoughts on respecting the sovereign borders of Poland? Art school admissions must be a stressful job
poland? what poland? all i see is Lebensraum
I have come back to this to try and post the baby runaway GIF several times and it won’t let me.
Spectacular work with this reply BTW!
The propoganda poster were designed in Illustrator
They already are!
LGBTQanon logo
I like the bottom left
Middle all the way down
Bottom right is my favourite. Although the original is also still amazing.
Any of the middle ones!
Ooo I like these ones, they remind me of sync without being a direct copy. Really nice concepts
These look really great. Well done on iterating while still keeping the “sync feel”. I think the default logo should stay the reversed colours of the sync for Reddit logo but I would love to see some of these as alternate icons!
Only little note is that the bottom left should have 1 more purple leg (the one going straight up should be purple).
Re: your note, your change would make it the same as the middle. I think it’s meant to show overlap with the green being the first layer.
I’m really not sure how I missed that. I’ll leave my original comment as is but you’re definitely right.
Middle middle or middle left. Still has the Sync vibe with a new spin.
Same.
Either just swapped color and the same shape. (Middle left)
Or those bit distinct triangles remind me the ears of the lemmy logo. (Middle middle)
Middle middle is great! I like middle left, too.
I like both the 2nd and 1st ones on the 2nd row in that order. Still looks similar to the app we lost, but the new colours are good for showing that Sync is still about doing the same for Lemmy. The bottom row is more noisy to me but as long as it isn’t that last one (sorry it does look a bit too much like some kind of fascist symbol) I am good with what you go with!
That’s what I was trying to incorporate the idea of :) glad it came across that way
