Took a stab at making a little graphic for the vote token

It's a little tweak of this icon from flaticon.

By the way there is a whole election icon pack if you want to check it out.

i'd be cautious with icons regarding the licensing (i do pay a fee on thenounproject.com to get full rights on the ones we use). I think that we could simply work with the olive emoji 🌿 for iconic purposes since it also resembles the democracy.earth logo :)

Those are actually free to use if author mentionned. But yeah I can work on a simpler version with the 🌿.

simple and clean. to be honest i dont like that icon much :) for icons is good to use things that also work in black & white or stamped without colors.

the colours make me think of the american flag... that could have bad connotations...

I think it could be like Aragon's but with the olive branch in the middle. Not the olive branch of the emoji because that one could be any branch.. it's not distinctively an olive branch. Perhaps like the one from DEFs logo

love the idea of the single stalk of wheat in the center but realize it's not a priority to custom design a token at this point.

re: token image design, aragon did a nice job with all of that layered visual interest through pattern, texture

lets keep it to outlined drawings.

its looking better. now we need to make sure that even if its reduced to 32x32 pixels, the drawing still makes sense (like emoji icons).. the olive there wont fly.

for the sake of a literal/analog token representation, probably a coin with 'vote' written in it should be okay.

At 32x32 ... this more simple version might work well.

Following @paulamlb idea. image image image

I really like your proposition @herbstephens

virgile-dev avatar Aug 17 '17 13:08 virgile-dev

ok, so now im being a pain in the ass: the olives will render better if its only the outline (without the inner drawing inside the leaves). you can all troll me now.

santisiri avatar Aug 17 '17 15:08 santisiri

If really small, filled olive branch works better @santisiri don't you think ? image image

virgile-dev avatar Aug 17 '17 16:08 virgile-dev

@virgile-dev i'll try to do something asap.

santisiri avatar Aug 17 '17 16:08 santisiri

@virgile-dev, try making a coloured version too (purple background, white label, colored olives maybe?). use the official ones from our twitter icon.

There you go @santisiri vote-color
