Better logo? #27

The current one looks like shit ricedb-black ricedb-white

I made two versions for you in GIMP; the image in the background is public domain, and the font is San Francisco Display from Apple. If you need these to be re-rendered, here's the xcf file

Feel free to edit the readme.md and use one of these. If it looks good I'll merge it.

Pull request is done, feel free to take a look; I also took the liberty of adding a slightly different tagline. https://github.com/install-logos/riceDB/pull/28

@RicebowlLinux took issue with the logo for being too similar to theirs. Guess we have to change it....... again.

emgram769 commented 9 years ago

why? the logo itself is for an entirely different product (a configuration management system not a distro), the use of chopsticks+bowl is not unique, our use of the chopsticks + bowl looks like "db" whereas theres seems random.

do they have a trademark or any other reason to steam the pot?

ricedb-black ricedb-white Again, I have a finalized version of my logo. @emgram769 I know you took issue with the "yellow texture in the background", which is actually a rice terrace: rice-terraces-214725 I'll see if I can find something else I can use, but as of right now, I think this is the best logo for the moment.
