Well for the ghostbsd icon I have a little "example/template" since I still do not fully understand the papirus guidelines for an icon but it is a .svg (uploaded .png) and does not use gradients so it should be ok (at some point)

The FreeBSD icon already exists, there is no need for another.

@morealaz I said only about the FreeBSD icon. Relax :)

There is also a PacBSD, but I can see to find a good official logo

Most of these already have a flat logo, so:
Proposals:
OpenBSD: Let the fish exactly as is, plus added the fish inside a red circle or maybe only the fish itself, since it is already a round icon
NetBSD: For that I thought about it and I came to some ideas: The flag entirely gray on a orange circle, the opposite to that or the flag icon as is inside a slightly different orange circle
DragonFlyBSD: Maybe just make that circle bigger to the point the dragonfly is inside of it, it's a very flat icon in the original
TrueOS: Get these flames and remove these horrible "3D" circle and put a flat grayish circle in the place
GhostBSD: Get the "G" and put it on a gray circle that matches the logo
MidnightBSD: No idea, already supper flat

What do you guys think of my idea?

@varlesh Can you give your thoughts about the icon I made? I'm quite a beginner into the vetorial images things, so I want to know what can I improve, thanks!!

@GrayJack OpenBSD logo should be much simpler. For example Numix icon:

openbsd

Ok, what about now? Give me your thoughts :3

Btw, the icons need to be round? Cause only a few distributor logo aren't round

@GrayJack

No, feel free to draw the icon w/o circle.

The icon looks great, but it not fit like Papirus icon. Create a new PR and we fix it together.

Ok, in the end I end up making the netbsd, dragonfly and ghostbsd too, I'm pretty sure they aren't all like Papirus icon.
What's is better for you? PR all in the same request or multiple PR?

@GrayJack let's start from OpenBSD only.

Ok :3
