Proposals for a new logo? #31

Open maresb opened 3 months ago

maresb commented 3 months ago

I made the current logo in about an hour with DALL-E and GIMP under the sole criterion of not being totally embarrassing. I'm not particularly proud of the result, and I'm sure others can do much better. If you're motivated, I'd be delighted to receive alternative proposals.

For technical reasons, the logo is ideally a PNG with an alpha channel.

It would be great if the logo will be provided as a SVG file, which is a vectoric format, thus it will look good when scaled.

That was my original thought, but I think Qt6 doesn't natively work SVG. (I might be wrong though, I was not persistent.) Also I played around for a few minutes in Inkscape with vectorization, and it ended up discretizing the gradients and looked worse, so I abandoned that approach. Of course SVG is always nice, but I don't think there's much downside to a high-res PNG.
