Logo
We need a logo for the website. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
@XhmikosR Hi, my name is Richard. I'm a graphic designer and I love making contributions for open source projects. I see that they want a new logo for your application. If you wish, I can do it for you without any problem ... I can present some modern ideas that would improve the appearance and image of your project.
Hey @richardbmx. I'm thrilled to see someone actually show up here :+1:
To give you a better understanding what this project is about, I can recommend reading up on Subresource Integrity (short: SRI) on the wikipedia article or MDN.
This website srihash is to help developers compute the integrity="sha384-+/M6kredJcxdsqkczBUjMLvqyHb1K/JThDXWsBVxMEeZHEaMKEOEct339VItX1zB" part of their <script> or <link> element. The website srihash.org tests whether the resource you are linking to supports SRI (they need to set a specific HTTP response header) and it also performs a browser check to see if your browser supports SRI (which is about 90% of web users by now).
I don't think I'm able to articulate my preferences and needs, so how do you suggest we move forward here @richardbmx? Are you intending to prototype a few directions and we choose something that's worth exploring further? How do you usually approach these things? :)
Again, thank you for reaching out!
@moebrowne Perfect the way in which I make this type of contributions is the following, I make some ideas and once you decide which one you like, it is perfected and I send you a google folder with all the necessary files to use the design, you can also make a PR with the integration of the logo in the readmi file.
@moebrowne @XhmikosR Happy day, I would like to present these four proposals that I have made, all focused on the function of your project. the number one proposal is a symbol formed by nodes to give an appearance of computer science and that at first sight it is understood that it is a project focused on computer science, the proposal 2 is made thinking about the security function so incorporate a shield inside the text in the letter S is a simpler design but it looks very good, the proposal 3 the basis in the search funsion that I saw on the web so that it forms a symbol with two fused magnifiers which gives a very clean image simple and minimalist that will be easy to remember and unique for your project, and finally the proposal 4 that is based on a shield formed by thick lines that at the same time form the letter S in a very minimalist way, I hope you like some of these If you want any change you just have to ask for it and with pleasure I can do it.
@richardbmx Thanks a lot for pushing your drafts here. I have been out traveling the last week, so apologies for not getting back to you earlier.
I think the avenues that 2 and 4 are exploring. I think a shield is a common choice for security related projects. What I do not like about 4 is that the S ends up looking too similar to the html5 logo, which also has shield-like appearance to it. Maybe we could make stylize not just the "S" but all the three beginning letters "SRI"?
Please also note that the SRI must be capitalized, as it is an acronym. The starting 'H' of Hash could also be capitalized, but does not have to.
Also paging @XhmikosR who might also have some feedback :-)
I have been thinking some more. (Please disregard this, if you do not wish for these kinds of tips / ideas. I'm not a good creator of logos myself :-))
I think the core value here is providing integrity (i.e., correctness checking) for CSS and JS files. The Noun Project has some interesting iconography for integrity (here and here) , that might be worth exploring.
