Redesign sos icon? #50
Comments
As a first pass, shall we try: https://www.freelogodesign.org/index.html (Just googled a few, to be tested. BTW the more i look at the current SoS logo the more I grow on it. Your design has this interesting characteristic) Update: the last link seems promising. |
Just a couple of examples that one can play with the https://www.logocrisp.com to get a draft, then download and AI it. |
The icon between two S in the last example looks interesting as it shows the hub nature of SoS. |
The complete one could be the icon to the left of something like the bottom of the first one. |
Sure, i was just playing around on that website. I think a horizontal one might fit more context, though. I cannot send a link for that specific icon ... but if you go to that link and search SoS under cateogory IT you'll run into it. But it might be random -- just tried again, and it is on the 20th page ... |
I think we first need to find a good rectangle icon (without word SoS). Adding word SoS under or to the right of the icon with appropriate font/color seems to be easy. Let me look for ideas for the icon. |
Great arts! I like this one: It has two S, and a flavor of Python. Some of the others indeed look a bit funny. If somehow the idea of communicating or blending can be reflected it would be even better -- currently it simply suggests stacking codes. Also ideally it should standout (be different from) other logos in both shape and color: https://vatlab.github.io/sos-docs/#features So the 2 "S" design is similar in idea to SAS but we cannot avoid it. Even python logo has the flavor of two S. The shapes are different though. In terms of color, green seems a bit Javascript. BTW your other post avoids resembling SAS and Python. But not as mature as your new post. |
The one you like can be twisted together with a helix shape, almost look like chromosome. |
Well ... this last one might have copyright issues, right? But the idea of flow is good. Maybe adding arrow at the tip of those
Indeed. I was more thinking of a single dot like a pin sticking at the center where the 2
This is in flavor along the lines of this post -- i thought rectangle idea is worth a shot though less mature. |
Then we can have a single S with a Python head, and a body formed by a workflow. |
I think we are allowed to use Python logo https://www.python.org/psf/trademarks/ Derived Logos

I will email you the ai files. |
Got your AI files but I think you've drawn what I too think of, though I was only having 3 colors in mind (dotted center connecting head and tail). But I think your last one is as good as a paid professional can come up with! |
The reason I said using less color is for the case when the icon is very small (eg 16x16) it still has good visibility. Do you think the latest one will have some issues when zooming out to very small icon? |
We will have to zoom it and see. |
I am trying to make the arrow uniform. |
Why is the ratio changed when in Jupyter? I think it got squeezed to slimmer! |
Perhaps the png version was not exported correctly. |
The fatter rectangle version looks good. It will be a lot of work to apply this logo to our doc, images etc. That has to be done gradually. |
Icon for SoS was created by someone without any artistic taste (a.k.a, me) and does not match styles of other icons, at least in JupyterLab...
