Hi everyone! I'm currently re-designing our logo. I wanted to highlight that we are available as nf-core pipeline but also as PyPI standalone package, hence, the color choices and the little nf-core apple on the hat and the PyPI logo on the stethoscope. However, @Franziska Bonath pointed out that the details might get lost because they are so small. Do you have any ideas? (The pipeline is about evaluating drug response prediction machine learning models)
j
Colours are fine But what happens if you emojify?
j
drugresponseeval2 it does become rather small
j
The main issue is the stethscope and the eyes
But it's not toooo bad? But I have good eyesight so lots of other people complains when I say LGTM 😅

The problem I see is that in the stethoscope is the logo for PyPI, which is important but unrecognizable in small icons
j
I dunno if that is so important though tbf

I'm not sure that it's that big a problem. Logos within logos are kind of an "added bonus". If it's in a big enough format that you can see it then great, if not then it still works as a recognisable pipeline logo

j
You've got the colours already
j
that's what I thought, too
is it an issue for the merch?
p
I think the same logic applies. Might be blurry / unreadable, just depends how important it is to you
j
Merch logo sizes can be big (tshirt) to small (pin badge)
f
I am not the logo police 😅, I am happy to put anything in the shop that you like, just thought that there may be others that could weigh in with good suggestions

haha that's not what I thought, don't worry 😄 I love designing logos, could spend hours on it 😄 so always open to new ideas/feedback!
there is also some "dead" space on the top and bottom because the logos are always square but the pills just occupy a rectangular space - maybe I could do something about that, too
maybe then the details can become larger
j
I was about to say that
Particulary the eyes/mouth
f
Do you have an svg? I would like to try something
j
DrugResponseEvalLogo.svg
DrugResponseEvalLogo.svg
I could rotate them?
but that just makes them a little bigger hm…
j
Could you make the stethscope grey instead of black? Might also help make that clerarer (also in emoji)
f
It doesn’t really work…
j
I mean make the whole thing grey
f
grey will make it difficult with the blue
j
Maybe a bit lighter?

Too light and we get in trouble with the yellow
j
she could also have another accessory like a headlamp?
(not final version) 😄
but it also looks a little like a bandage …

j
oh no the eyes are cursed hahaha
f
you didn’t see them when the lashes where white… 😂 Straight from hell
😂 3
j
i also thought about flipping the colors but then it looks weird with the double yellow
and then if I flip it completely we have the same issue with the green pill …
but at least like this, the green pill looks a little less sick haha
f
I am playing around, but don’t get very far
j
aw kind of like a condensed logo, I see!
