Pretty self-explanatory but the idea is to combine the “share” logo with the crossbones. The message is peers 2 peers, from many to many, sharing is caring, but the deisgn still recalls the awesome pirate flag.
I love it! Would definitely vote this as the new logo
What if we use this as the bones, and put a skull above it
This stands well enough on its own. And the skull, although kinda classy in an edgy way, will always hold a rather negative connotation.
Obligatory Mitchell and Webb sketch.
Call me corny but a little floppy disk or a globe or something could be cool
A globe for the cranium and a floppy for the jaw maybe?
Looking at this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolly_Roger
It looks like the main historical elements used in pirate vexillology were:
-
a skull
-
a skeleton
-
crossbones
-
a sword, spear, or dagger
-
a heart, often bleeding
-
an hourglass
-
elements of period seagoing clothing
-
Add a dot on top and below the middle dot to form a hexagonal shape. Hexagons are the bestagons!
But then it isn’t a crossbones and hexagons, whilst being very bestagon-y, are not really obviously related to piracy
Oh shit forgot I was in the piracy
subLemmy Community
Minimal and good, I like it
The jolliest Roger.
It also looks like a central node branching off into four, showing centralisation over peers.
Maybe a more spherical structure with links between all nodes?
Well I like it, it‘s fairly simple and that is good for logos.
also makes sense for fedi being made up of hundreds of smaller nodes, nice
It looks a little like the World Government flag from One Piece.
Thie is worthy of r/vexillology, or the eventualy Lemmy equivalent. Well done!
Edit: Turns out there is a vexillology communtiy on Lemmy. Awesome!
I need a sticker of this. You mind if I make one for myself?
I’ll say yes, so technically if you do use it it would be an act of piracy 👀
I think you can just take it. 😄
I wouldn’t steal from another pirate. That’s just uncivilized
Righttttt
I’m so happy about the transition!
Commenting so I can find this again later.
Can we put Lemmy Kilmister in the middle of it?
That fucking rules!
