If anyone has a name, feel free to suggest ...

Also, we need a logo and maybe other designs.

Glass, x-ray, transparency, unveil, etc

SebastianZimmeck commented 3 years ago

As our extension is an end user tool, the name should not be too technical. Other properties:

But I am also fine with a name that sounds good and/or is just intuitively good.

Usee, Checko, DolphinSense, ...

Could also be a name after a detective: Sherlock, Clouseau, ...

Couple thoughts:

SebastianZimmeck commented 3 years ago

BeeBeeVision, BeeBeePrivacy (kind of like DuckDuckGo). Animals are always good in my opinion. Just need to find the right association. :)

Maybe Octo Optics (Octopus are known for their heightened ability to see through dark (and sketchy) waters)

Privacy Racer (I have been watching Formula 1 lately :)

octo optics

An idea for octo optics

SebastianZimmeck commented 3 years ago

Can you make it look more friendly? For example, in the style of the Salesforce or GitHub mascots. Maybe, with a mouth, nose, ... ? Also, maybe a magnifying glass or something like that would be more fitting than a lock as we are more about seeing things as opposed to locking them.

We can also work with Octo Optics, though, I think it can be improved. There are two points for me. If I see it, I want to say Opto Octics. Also, I am not sure whether people will make the connection optics -> privacy transparency, etc. I am associating optometrists, scientific instruments, ... . Are there replacements for Optics? Maybe, also just Octo? The name also does not necessarily need to reflect the animal, in my opinion.

Does anyone else have thoughts?

Edit: Maybe, we will have also a difference between a logo (which can be simple so that it can be used as a favicon, for example) and a mascot (which is a more intricate design).

Sir Privacy (with some distinguished logo along the lines of Charles), Gadget Inspector, Privacy Penguin, ...

I am actually a big fan of Privacy Pal!

Apparently, some other people thought so too. I just saw that.

Maybe, have a loading graphic with a boat in a sea of HTTP requests.

SebastianZimmeck commented 3 years ago

@Lr-Brown presented a space ship theme to have a more modern pioneer than with a boat. To narrow down and have the final in a week, @Lr-Brown will do a quick survey among everyone in the Lab in the MS Teams all channel.

SebastianZimmeck commented 3 years ago

We need one favicon and one or two bigger logos for the about page, repo, ...

SebastianZimmeck commented 3 years ago

As discussed, let's aim to finish the whole logo, icons, and other designs issues by the end of this week.

lr-brown commented 3 years ago

Logo and name implemented!!
