earthquake

[Mariusthvdb]

I have:

• [ ] Searched all issues to make sure there isn't a request for this icon.
• [ ] Searched the current library to make sure the icon doesn't exist.
• [ ] Only requested a single icon (or a few near-identical ones) in this issue.

Usage

Provide some context of how your icon could be used.

need an icon for the earth quake feed sensor, in case of active quakes (or none..)

Examples

Include any example images so we know what the icon should look like.

now use the

        icon_template: >
          {% if states('sensor.count_earthquakes')|int != 0 %} mdi:google-earth
          {% else %} mdi:earth
          {% endif %}

because the google-earth is a somewhat twisted Earth ;-)

preferably we would have an earth with a crack in it maybe, or, the Earth with 2 or 3 bent lines next to it, to indicate motion. Taking it down the seismic road, use a graph of some sort, but that might be too complex for such a small icon? some variant in the chart family.

thanks for considering

Would this suffice?

o dear that looks rather horrific ;-) might be a bit too much for a warning....seems to be in the fatal stage already.

I do see use for these, but had hoped for an icon with the earth featuring in it.

Could always do earth-vibrate :P

Hmm ... Dunno that that would communicate earthquake to me, even with context.

Would an alert modifier work with the earth icon as a generic "disaster" icon?

What about a house-pulse?

many options ;-) thanks for all these fine suggestions!

imho, the best examples in @JapanYoshi 's post https://github.com/Templarian/MaterialDesign/issues/4358#issuecomment-524112862 are the ones with the 'trembling' lines besides the houses, indiction, well, a tremble. A quake. Would hope an earth-vibrate (or -quake of course) could be made using these lines?

or, something like this, with an earth symbol and an epicenter indicting the quake:

if too small to do so, wouldn't an earth symbol with the plotted line like in @MrGrigri 's house-pulse be possible, creating earth-pulse?

for reference, this seems to be the 'standard' quake representation in apps:

(though admittedly that could just as well be a cardiogram ;0( ) And, since you mentioned Japan, I'm in search for this for the Indonesian region, which has just as many quakes, probably originating from the same plates in the earths crust..

tbh, I don't think this has the looks of a quake at all, seems more like a fence to me. If you want to stick with the house as main icon for earthquake (instead of the earth..), I suppose one of your earlier posts has a better one:

main visuals: the crack in the earth (!) and the trembling curved lines along the house.

[Mariusthvdb]

has anything been decided on this icon? if anything, home-broken in the first reply would already be much appreciated

[Mariusthvdb]

dear people, contributors to my issue..

I would love to add these icons you made to my Custom Icons repo at https://github.com/Mariusthvdb/Custom-icons. before releasing that, I kindly request your permission. Ofc full credits will be given.

I will add a fill color, so the users with a dark theme can still see them alright.

Here is a good icon that is already in one of the home assistant modules (this would be added):

[Mariusthvdb]

yes, that is https://pictogrammers.com/library/mdi/icon/pulse/ as is used in house-pulse above

[Mariusthvdb]

btw, guess this can be closed as no official icon will be added? please any of the devs in charge feel free to do so?
