Logo Design

[ghostofiht]

Hi, I make design contributions for open source projects. I have a great logo design idea for PySolFC. You want to see this?

[shlomif]

@ghostofiht : yes, please share it as long as its licence is compatible with pysol fc's gplv3-or-later - https://opensource.stackexchange.com/questions/7759/gplv3-explicit-version-number-or-any-later-version-implications

[ghostofiht]

Don't worry about the license. The main idea of ​​the design; "Portable card game". That's why I designed the cards in a pocket. I hope you liked it. If you think of any changes, you can say that. I can do that. And please specify the color you prefer.

@ghostofiht : thanks! I had some initial reservations but they were soon gone. I prefer the green colour, but think that the upper dashed line's side should be more distanced from the upper edge, similar to the other lines. @Programator2 @lufebe16 : what do you think?

[ghostofiht]

Sorry about the top dashed line. I arranged it as you wanted. The final version is as follows. If you don't have another change, I'll send you a logo with a PR. ?

[shlomif]

The line looks great now - thanks! Note that I feel that the font used is a little strange-looking. Perhaps use a somewhat different font. I also want to get opinions from more people.

I'm sorry, but I don't like the design. Here are my comments:

• Combination of 3D and 2D - cards are shown in perspective viewed at an angle, but the pocket is viewed straight on. It looks strange to have flat object slapped on 3D object. Logo should be displayed either in perspective or flat, but not both.
• Cards are not main focus - most of the space is taken by the pocket. In smaller sizes (like on the webpage) it looks like a shield. Cards should be more prominent and the pocket should take less space.
• Cards in the pack are not aligned, gaps between cards are not consistent, it looks a bit messy.

[ghostofiht]

@Programator2 You may be right. In fact, my goal was to make the cards look natural by showing them a little messy. I re-edited it for you. And I made the cards come to the fore. I'm here for you. Feel free to let me know your requests.

@ghostofiht Thanks for the update. My favourite is the third version, flat and simple. Let's see what others think.

[shlomif]

@ghostofiht : I prefer the rightmost version too.

[ghostofiht]

I'm glad you like it. What do you think about font? Here you can choose from among thousands of fonts. Or you can say any font. This is your logo, guys. We should design according to your preferences.

[shlomif]

@ghostofiht : one problem with dafont is that many of the fonts featured there are not open source fonts (see https://opensource.com/life/16/2/top-sources-open-source-fonts ) so one needs to be careful. There are some other font collections in the link. I'll try to see about that.

[ghostofiht]

@shlomif I think I need to review the subject of licenses. Thank you for your information. Have you chosen a font?

Sorry - not yet - I was busy with other projects.

[ghostofiht]

@shlomif Good choice. I applied it so you could see how it looks.
