Design idea: logo, custom emoji etc #148

Not certain whether the current logo is "The Postmarks logo", or a temporary one.

Adding a possible todo list item to think about a logo that would be usable as a recognisable icon across platforms, as a default favicon, etc.

It might also be nice to have a custom emoji icon for use on e.g. Mastodon and other services that support custom emoji.

There's potentially a whole set of related customisation options that could be added for branding / theming of a Postmarks instance, but a nice visual identity would be cool as an out-of-the-box default.

Thanks Andy!

I have no strong attachment to it-- I'm not even completely attached to the project name/branding as a whole, to be perfectly honest, (though I recognize a full-on rename introduces confusion and other issues)

I'm definitely open to this if there's any talented branding-type thinker out there reading this who wants to lend a hand. Under our current governance you'll have to deal with me as the fussy client who rejects all your favorite ideas, though, so if that's you let's chat before you get started!

I really like the name, but I do note that there's at least one thing with a very close name 🤞🏻 Either way, for broader Fediverse awareness, would be great to have a recognisable "brand" of some kind.
