A poster I made to promote the Fediverse.
The PDFs and the light version is on the Internet Archive.
This work is public domain, so feel free to do whatever you want with it; for example print it on a T-shirt!
EDIT: Low-contrast Solarized versions are now available!
I like it
Neat!
Wow this would look really cool on a t-shirt / hoodie
Each one of the circles could be an icon for the different mainstays
-Lemmy
-Mastodon
-Pixelfed
-Kbin/Mbin
-?The main problem with that is that most of these platforms barely communicate with each other. I think mbin right now has the best multi platform support but even that is somewhat lacking.
That is true, but I don’t think that’s a good enough reason not to use them as the representations. The interoperability will improve over time, it just has to be developed more.
However, I am also hesitant about it for another reason in that I’m not really certain any of these platforms are static or will just forever keep changing over time. How do you represent a forever changing, evolving, dynamic network of platforms?
Also, we should try and focus on what are some of the ways that it could be improved as well.
I wish I could say this is great, but it’s an unreadable mess. Looks like EEDT.
I saw FFDI. Not much better.
That’s what I saw too at first
Perhaps lower the contrast a bit? Use some gray and charcoal color? Presently it looks like what I see when I have migraine aura… and I don’t intend that to be mean or anything!
Fair enough, I will make another version shortly
EDIT: Solarized low-contrast versions are available; I think it would look much better!
Solarized dark looks great!
That looks like an Iain Banks non-sci-fi book jacket
Question, what kind of design is this logo?
Sort of vaguely op-art. Or postmodern brutalist perhaps.
It could be a bit better thought out to improve readability and find a more pleasing interaction between the letter and logo elements, but it’s an interesting idea to explore further I think.
Either put the letters or the logo in the background. This mixing effect is just hard on the eyes and triggers even my migraine. Definitely don’t use this logo to promote the fediverse.
It’s a poster design, not a logo. It doesn’t need to be as instantly recognizable. Putting one or three other in the background would make it a lot less visually interesting.
