How can I improve this logo for lemmy.world.

3 years ago by Thekingoflorda to c/asklemmy

Hey! I'm trying a little bit of logo designing. And I thought, why not start with a logo for lemmy.world.

I am a little bit stuck with this design, I don't dislike it, but I feel like it looks off. What could I do to improve this?

FYI, the world icon (the nose, not a ball gag, I promise) is a free image from the internet. I am not that good at designing lol.

You could make the world the head rather than the nose... also whiskers coming from around the nose and maybe a little thinner.

Its a bit tricky to get the hang of but inkscape could be good for logo design. Could also use one of these AI image generators.

I’m currently using affinity designer, as I’m more familiar with that.

Thank you for the advice. The problem I see with making the head the world, is that the head isn’t round.

Good point hadn't spotted that. Just checked the official logo has whiskers like yours but not going over the face. Maybe thats why it feels off.

doesn't have to be round! I think it'd look cool regardless
