Hi, i am a logo designer and I can make a logo for you, can you give me little brief of how do you want the logo look like?

[clanstyles]

What about a bunch of gophers on a bunch of scaffolds orchestrating a crane that is putting colored containers (docker containers) together? I've seen this before with a PaaS but it sorta makes sense here too.

[nilfanif]

Isn't that too complicated for a logo. There are too many elements.

Any logos on the internet that you like for inspirations?

As a suggestion:
https://www.iconfinder.com/icons/882754/ladder_scaffold_stairs_steps_icon#size=256
with the kubernetes logo somewhere at the top being supported

[nilfanif]

Kubernet logo is a trademark of linux foundation, and I don't think we can alter and combine the logo with scaffold for this project. This is the guidelines for the their trademark https://www.linuxfoundation.org/trademark-usage/

[nilfanif]

so, I made two version based on the brief you gave.

and bellow is a friendlier version

[nilfanif]

those are as simple as it can get, i can add more elements to the logo but it will look terrible in small size

[nilfanif]

@dgageot what do you think?

[dgageot]

@nilfanif I like the second one better. @r2d4 @dlorenc @viglesiasce any feedback?

[nilfanif]

Cool, just let me know if you need any tweaks or refinements

[dankohn]

When this is finalized, could you please provide in SVG format. I'd like to include Skaffold in the CI/CD section of https://landscape.cncf.io/grouping=landscape&landscape=ci-cd

If you want to create the entry yourself, please see https://github.com/cncf/landscape#new-entries

[nilfanif]

both version in SVG format.

I think this is still a bit too busy for a logo with all the lines especially when we shrink it down. Maybe a version with scaffolding designed into the letters?

[aaronkorver]

Can there be scaffolding around the letters of "Scaffold"?

[dlorenc]

@kimsterv can you link in the logo?

[dankohn]

I converted the eps to svg and updated here: https://landscape.cncf.io/grouping=landscape&landscape=application-definition-image-build&selected=skaffold

[r2d4]

Awesome thanks @dankohn!!

My 2 pennies worth... I like the logo by @dankohn

@r2d4 made the logo. I just converted to SVG and added to the Interactive Landscape.
