Again, based on @FixedFun 's original designs so creds to them for the idea.
Thoughts about these ones? For the one on the right, I tried a different angle to hopefully give more bird and less bald man.
I really like both of these a whole lot, but I have to agree with most others here - the one on the right is wonderful!
I also like the one on the right, it’s adorable!
Definitely the one on the right! Fun, clean, attractive
No more Sumo wrestler lol
I think right probably just takes it for me, I really like the gap between beak and face on left though.
Either way, good job!
Maybe I’m missing context, but I’m not seeing the “bald man” image in either of these. I see that avoiding it is the reasoning behind the right one, but I have to say that I feel a greater appeal towards the left image. Just seems more happy and bright (not in color, as they’re the same colors, but in mood from the tilt of the head)
That said, I don’t mind the right. Just prefer the left.
Support :) love the logo’s.
I really like the right one. It oozes confidence :)
thanks! bald man mostly gone I’d hope!
I really don’t want a logo that reminds me of that sexist shithead troll of a Reddit supermod.
who?
From the comment they are talking about AwkwardTheTurtle, but I wouldn’t have known what avatar Turtle used, and even having now looked it up it’s a bit of a stretch to link this with her avatar.
Throwing my vote in for the right one too. It’s adorable. I mean, the left one is too, but the right one is more adorable.
Much better, I almost don’t even see the balding man anymore :)
I just love it, the Kbird never looked so good, I don’t care about credit I just want the Kbird to exist one way or another
Oh BTW, I almost forgot, yeah right one is best, also more original
The one on the left has more character, but they’re both adorable!
What exactly are the new designs for? Is it for an app? Or to replace the cool purple kbin folder? I really like the cool purple kbin folder most.
Since ‘kbinaut’ is a fairly frequently suggested name for people on kbin, a suggestion I have for a bit of extra fun would be to add an astronaut helmet (kbirdnaut?)
Also right birb best birb, but both are very cute
It can’t be done, but I would be tickled pink if the left image was the default icon and the right image was the icon if I have notifications waiting for me. 🤣
This is 100% doable, but probably not worth the effort.
As an iOS app icon?
As an icon on the website definitely yes, and since it’s open source, maybe somebody will disagree with you.I don’t know anything about iOS development. I know it’s possible to add pills to an icon if you have notifications, but I have no idea if iOS gives you the ability to change what the icon looks like. Because we’d be talking about a PWA, the tools may also be a little different.
As for browsers, I actually misremembered how favicons worked. After refreshing my memory, This is actually much less effort than I originally expected. Assuming an instance wanted to implement this, they could just change the
linkthat defines the icon based on the currently logged in user’s number of notifications.
I like the left one’s bird design more, but right one has a better “alert” expression.
If I had to pick I’d go for the right one.
