Hosts: Icon-Logo design proposal

[Tobaloidee]

Hi Sir @StevenBlack good day! I am a graphic designer and i want to contribute to your good project by designing an icon-logo for it to be able to be more visible and gather interests from users. If you like and want to use the design I will be gladly sending you all the needed files as my gift for free to the project.

Thanks a lot and best regards!

*removed my initial image proposal because of similar design with others.

Hello! Thank you for opening your first issue in this repo. It’s people like you who make these host files better!

[Tobaloidee]

Before anything else Sir..I will edit my proposal for i have seen similarities with other logo designs..I will update this asap

[StevenBlack]

Hi @Tobaloidee, this is great! I really like what you've done here. Nice! I look forward to the update!

[Tobaloidee]

Surely Sir! I will show you here my updated design as soon as i get home..do you have any color in mind that you prefer Sir?

[StevenBlack]

@Tobaloidee please just call me Steve 😄

Color? You're the artist. You decide.

[Tobaloidee]

Hi Steve! :) here's the updated design.

white on orange

black on orange

blue

I prefer the white on orange but I think you can use it all in different implementations. :)

[Tobaloidee]

Overall it Shows the letter "h" "H" for the initial of the project which is Hosts

I hope you will consider using it! :100:

[Tobaloidee]

Nissar @funilrys voted twice 💣 😄

[funilrys]

I like both :smile_cat:

[ScriptTiger]

Sir Steve, O.C.!

[Tobaloidee]

Blue is leading! :)

[anudeepND]

@Tobaloidee What do you think about this font instead...in bold?

[Tobaloidee]

used the font suggested by Sir @anudeepND and made a new version of blue with black H

[Tobaloidee]

but using this new font will take away the similarity with the main design of the 'H' in the logomark.

I based the design from the previous font that i used

[anudeepND]

@Tobaloidee I agree with you, the previous one looks better

[Tobaloidee]

but thank you for that font that you suggested Sir @anudeepND i downloaded it and it was nice.
i will use it in my future designs. :)

[kronflux]

I was actually thinking that previously - why not use the same font for both the logo and the text?
I'd even think somewhere along the lines of a digital clock font for both.
Something like/similar to this?

[Tobaloidee]

I think it will fit the logomark..I will edit it as soon as i get home Sir @kronflux

[Tobaloidee]

here it is..

[kronflux]

@Tobaloidee I really like the first two! I'm wondering how you feel about making the logo match more closely so it's more appropriate!
I threw this together, obviously it's not perfect because I don't have the source material, but it gives the general idea :)

Edit: oops I forgot to raise the right side of the H. but still, general impression xD

[kronflux]

had a little spare time so I fixed up my suggestion/example!

[StevenBlack]

I declare BLUE the winner by a landslide!

I'll try to add this for the next update.

[Tobaloidee]

Can I make a PR Sir and place it in Readme file?

[StevenBlack]

@Tobaloidee in readme_template.md, yes please!

[Tobaloidee]

or ill create a folder in the repo and uplaod the needed SVG/PNG files also Sir?

[StevenBlack]

@Tobaloidee yes please.

Also, credit yourself in the readme_template for the logo 😄

[Tobaloidee]

Okay Sir Steve! I'll do it now

[Tobaloidee]
