I was looking through the icon theme and found some icons that needed to be updated.

That new Pandora icon is :fire: but is going to be a pain in the ass to do anything with numix wise

really-need-an-api-key commented 3 years ago

Perhaps something like this for web-pandora? pandora-square

I'm not even sure if the icon wasn't updated again.

palob commented 3 years ago

I think it's just a blue P now.

really-need-an-api-key commented 3 years ago

Their favicon is still colourful.

palob commented 3 years ago

OK, maybe straight diagonal lines on the P and a coloured baseplate for a softer contrast?

really-need-an-api-key commented 3 years ago

I'm finding it a little difficult to pick a good base colour that works well with those stripe colours.

pandora-square-2

For the stripes i might forgo the blue and use a blue base, but it stops the logo from feeling "fresh" then, and the similarity of the shape colours make it feel more like PayPal.

pandora-square-4

I think it would look better if the stripes weren't as regular, hence the waviness in my previous comment. Maybe I could break the regularity by not having every line be parallel.

palob commented 3 years ago

I don't think it looks all that bad. Maybe slightly lighter / less saturated colours and a significantly lighter baseplate?

palob commented 3 years ago

Given the colours even alter in strip direction maybe there is a way building the P from blocks?

How are the waves aligned w.r.t. the pixel grid?

really-need-an-api-key commented 3 years ago

They weren't really, but I adjusted them to be.

palob commented 3 years ago

Looks like the way to go!

really-need-an-api-key commented 3 years ago

If the colours are okay I'll make a PR. pandora-circle panora-square

palob commented 3 years ago

Maybe a bit brighter/less saturated colours on the symbol for a softer contrast and it's good to go.

really-need-an-api-key commented 3 years ago

I sat on it for a little while and decided I can do better. What about something like this? pandora-circle-alt-4

palob commented 3 years ago

It certainly looks cool but on the other hand it's a bit busy and maybe not as close to the original. I'm not sure. I'd say go ahead with the PR, show the other one as alternative and let have others chime in with their opinions.
