Www.rust-lang.org: Fix inconsistent social icons in the footer

Created on 5 Dec 2018  路  4Comments  路  Source: rust-lang/www.rust-lang.org

The icons in the footer need to be changed.

Current situation:

rust social icons

My proposal:

rust social icons 2

Reasons

  • The icons look inconsistent, since the YouTube icon is the only flat icon.
  • The GitHub and Discord icons are outdated
  • The GitHub and Discord icons are hard to recognize due to the significant differences from the original.
  • The icons do not follow the guidelines by GitHub, Twitter and Discord. Each of these companies has established rules for how their trademarks may be used and modified.

Official icons/trademarks

github icons
discord official logo
twitter logo
youtube icons

PS: A tooltip (short text displayed when the mouse is over the icon) would be nice. It's really easy:

<img src="/static/images/youtube.svg" alt="youtube logo" title="YouTube">
A-Design good first issue help wanted
