New logo
Closed this issue · 22 comments
Hey there,
I had some free time today so I decided to redesign the logo, what are your thoughts?
Example propaganda image:
Logo (png):
Banner (for github readme):
This is a vector (svg) so you can scale it at any size. You are free to do whatever you want with it (if you don't think it is too ugly haha), that's a gift for this awesome OS that I'm using everyday!

That's awesome!
Totally up for it!
I like the current one, because the bluer tones invoke the frozen/snowflake theme more.
I can try to use bluer tones if you want
I like the re-imagining of the logo, in particular I like the blue pink and white going on. That said, I don't think updating the logo is on the table right now :)

Thank you ! <3
I didn't create it with the intention of replacing the current logo haha. I'ld love to see people use it in wallpapers for example tho!
Not a fan of it over the current version we have, but i do think it would make a great addition to the artwork in general.
I didn't like the shadows, but I really liked the pink part!
so I got inspiration from this and made personally wallpaper with palenight colorscheme. thanks.

Awesome, where can we see it?

You can see on my nixconfig repo. wallpaper.png on root.
I'm not designer or anything so I just used fill tool on gimp to edit nixos logo color and I put it above palenight background though.
Looks cool!
I'm just closing this because it has created some confusion about what NixOS's official logo is. Thank you for submitting it!
Follow up for 20.09:
r20.09 logo with dark background
r20.09 logo with transparent background
r20.09 logo with large text
And for the OGs using unstable:

I really like these colors. It feels welcoming, special, professional. Thanks for sharing!
But i don't think we should change our current logo (that much) since we have build a brand over the years. If at all, changes should get applied in small iterations like professional brands do.

Thanks, I understand what you mean. If you want I could try to make one or two iterations between the current logo and this one so the transition would be better.
@Th0rgal yes, that would be nice. you can try to make the colors colder, so it looks more frozen :D
Then, i guess the forum is the best place to discuss it.
What software was used to make this?
i wish this was the official logo it looks so much better

Hey, I used Adobe illustrator
Is there anyway to re-open this issue? I do really think the Nix logo could do with a facelift.
- The small gaps between the Lambda's really doesn't scale well when the logo is zoomed out.
- I'm personally not a massive fan of the font they use for Nix either.
Interestingly there currently is a slight shadow on each lambda but I think that should either be removed or made more prominent like in the suggested logo in this issue.

+1 on this.
