@tobimensch

Nothing yet. I want to make a logo, but I have never made it...

@fox0430 I'm not good at this but...

Maybe with another font?

tobimensch commented 4 years ago

@unihernandez22 Hehe. Van Gogh would be proud. I mean, sarcastically.

Maybe someone can make a logo of a Japanese symbol, such as this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Rising_Sun

Or this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Precious_Crown

Or maybe there's a better one, unfortunately my knowledge of the Japanese culture has limits.

Or maybe a logo related to Otaku Culture?

fox0430 commented 4 years ago

My ideal is a logo related to Otaku Culture. But it may be simple and good. The most important thing for me is the image character in the end. (I don't have a character idea yet...) For example, https://github.com/syuilo/misskey

Make Logo and Pet. 😃

Titillium is the official Nim font https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Titillium+Web Xirod font also similar.

@fox0430

A further suggestion: how about relating the logo to the meaning of the editor's name? A web translator translated the Japanese origin of the name of the editor (https://github.com/fox0430/moe/blob/develop/README.md?plain=1#L151) to "sprouting". The idea would be to create something based on this plant growing topic; maybe some crops with the Nim crown on their tops growing out of a sheet of paper symbolising the edited files? Maybe this can be also combined with the other suggestions.

This would also make a good slogan: "Moe -- the place to grow your code."

@kevinmatthes The etymology is, in fact, unknown, and has a similar meaning to something like "to love" or "to like": See

fox0430 commented 1 year ago

"sprouting" is not completely wrong. The origin of the current meaning is unknown and we use to mean "to like" and "to love" but in ancient Japan, it was used to mean "to sprout." I think it's a not bad idea.
