Logo / Branding

[buschtoens]

Emblem.js grew to be such an amazing project, that it deserves its very own branding. This is my go at it. I am by no means a professional designer, but I think this looks okay. I invite everyone to submit their ideas! 😄

I think the icon idea is self-explanatory. A shield because of "Emblem" and glasses for the Ember mascot.

The gradient used is Endless River. (#43cea2, #185a9d)

In retrospective, the choice of font may not have been the wisest, as it is Exo 2.0 Light, the successor of Exo, which is used by ember-cli. If wanted, this can be easily changed.

I've also made a 16x16 version for file icons and/or favicons.
Again, I'm no pro. 😉

If you want, I'll share the .ai and/or .svg files.

Ah this is so cool, thank you so much! The shield with glasses looks pretty awesome, I think I'm sold, but hey if other people are curious to get in on the action and take a stab at an Emblem logo, I'd be curious to see it :)

[buschtoens]

Yeah, so if anyone wants to use my version as a starting point. Here it is. :)

So if I wanna throw this up on the site, what kind of attribution would you like?

Would be cool to also get some shirts.

This work is licensed under the WTFPL ( http://www.wtfpl.net/about/ ), which allows you to do WTF you want with it. 😄

I'm just happy to have given Emblem a face. 😉

I expect no attribution at all, but you may link to my website ( http://jan.pink - down just now ) when and where you want.

Rock on!
