These are only meant to help for cases where the full tux is too detailed to display, see examples in the linked README. But the shape also works well for single fill cases, like in the keychain example. I wouldn’t want these to be used when the full tux could be displayed in all its glory instead.
One issue I have is I do not know how to license these properly, I wouldn’t want them to show up in a trademarked logo or anything, but I would still want them to be freely usable as tux icons anywhere. What do you think?
I have chosen the CC BY-SA 4.0 license, thank you for helping me!
Obigatory
OP should make an extended forehead alt icon pack in this image’s honor
OMAHA
I’m no expert, but would CC BY-SA do the trick?
I LOVE these! Great work!
Oh dude this is really awesome. Fresh.
thankyou! btw, since you’re a billion dollar corp can you send me a check? cheers
LoL I’m not. Just an early Lemmy user with weird taste
aw ok… you never know ig heh
I love Tux and these icons!
I now I also know how it’s skull looks like :P
Honestly I hope any of these variations replace the old logo. Looks great OP! Thanks for sharing
hell no, full tux is the best, these are just simplified icons. but thanks for the compliment!!
No problem stranger 👈😎 lmao
The middle one reminds me of Elan from The Order of the Stick
Looks nice, thanks to show it with us :)
I could see something like this being a common use icon, it’s very well done. I prefer this look to having the big bodied Tux on a small icon, this solves the problem well. Good job!
Very nice icon, would you consider contributing it to font-logos project (where a lot of FOSS projects logos are, including Tux) that is used on nerd-fonts so people can use it on their terminals? Nice to see SolveSpace being used for it. Edit: Fix typo.
oh yea that would be cool, let me see if i can do it
@[email protected] I will wait for the license issue to resolve, seems better?
@[email protected] Sure no problem, I’m still not 100% how to proceed, I hope in any case it get resolved before new NF release.
aw I missed the release. maybe we can get it in for the fall release. ( personally I would prefer to get it in under the right license, than in a new one or in a grey-area). thanks for reaching out back then, it would be crazy to me if people had access to this icon in neovim etc.
I’m still figuring out some things and also have been busy, eventually should be done.
no problem at all, I will try to get it in whenever it is solved, I’m in no hurry :) thx
