Conky: New logo for conky

[su8]

Hello sir @Tobaloidee,

Can you make some logo for the awesome conky ?

Regards

[Tobaloidee]

Hi @su8 nice to hear from you again..Surely! I'll make a design for awesome conky and post it here when done..thanks!

[Tobaloidee]

Hi, good day! @su8 here's what i came up with..

I created a meaningful and simple design that targets the purpose of the project which is to display any kind of information on desktops. I laid it out on a light and dark background to show that it is very visible on both. It is also very visible in small sizes. I hope you like it. However, it is still open for suggestions. I picked that color (purple) from the images displayed on the readme.md

[su8]

Great work, your designs are always amazing. Where does this creativity comes from :D

I like the horizontal one, @lasers what's your opinion here ?

[su8]

Can you fill the bars/the background inside the display with real conky configs like this one for example:

[lasers]

@su8 Same opinion. White and calm. Would like to see smaller versions since conky often cramp things in small window.. Feels weird to see a large size font popping out. Idk. Maybe it's fine if we scale it down.

[Tobaloidee]

here i made some adjustments to it from suggestions

[su8]

You nailed it my good sir :smiley:

[lasers]

Can we see one without white boxes inside the C?

[Tobaloidee]

without the white bars :)

[su8]

The one without the bars rocks. @lasers shall we proceed ahead and tell mister @Tobaloidee to open up a PR ?

[lasers]

I leave this to @brndnmtthws.

[Tobaloidee]

yes after comparing it side by side in my desktop this one without the bars looks cool!

[lasers]

You know he have a kickass logo already. :stuck_out_tongue: What Is Conky?

[lasers]

It would be interesting to see what @Tobaloidee could do with the logo above. ;-)

[lasers]

@su8 I think I would like to have him in the logo. Too good to pass it up.

[su8]

@lasers I don't know if we are breaching any copyrights if mister @Tobaloidee proceeds ahead with this new idea.

[plikhari]

That old one was from some Canadian TV series - right - I think the new one with the white thingies is good - else the small one looks too dull.

[brndnmtthws]

@Tobaloidee thanks for the contribution.

I think the logo here is the one to go with.

Would you like to open a PR to add the logo to the repo? And perhaps put it into the README as well. If you have source files (svg or whatever) those would be great.

[Tobaloidee]

Yes yes, i will finalize the files and make a PR..thanks thanks! :)

here's the PR #630 for the logo upload & readme update.

You can also get all the different versions and file formats like SVG-PNG-Ai on this LINK

Thanks and my best regards to the project!

This can be closed now. The logo is awesome! Thank you!

Just one question: I am thinking of using the logo for the conky-for-macOS organisation and for ConkyX/ManageConky.

What is the license of the logo? Am I allowed to do it?
I am a total illiterate when it is about licenses!

Thank you! ;)

PS: ManageConky and ConkyX are MIT Licensed.

I guess the logo would be under the GPLv3 along with the rest of the
project. Conky isn't trademarked or anything, so you're free to do as you
please with it.
