New logo for Weapon regeX

[nhaajt]

In (late) celebration of v1.0 release, I’m proposing a new logo for Weapon regeX. This new design addresses a few issues with the old logo:

• Simplified design with more balanced proportion
• Better legibility with the monogram WR and the regex \\?
• More related symbolism of mutating regex (QuantifierRemoval mutates \\? to \\) in Stryker’s red

I like it 🤩!

But I do feel it's a missed opportunity not to put forward slashes in the logo. Do you think you would be able to manage that? Since /forward slashes/ are a regex literal in JS 😎

Very interesting idea. I'll keep /that/ in mind for v3 😉 when wrx hits the next big milestone

I also like it! @nhaajt if it's not too much work, could you also try a version with a line connecting the first two backslashes? That might make it a bit more clear that it's a W

Here are some quick edits with a line connecting the first two backslashes. With only 2 colors, the \\ and ? seems a bit lost. A 3rd color is needed to separate things. Overall, I’m not really satisfied with these since it adds unnecessary complexity to the design.

Hmm, I agree. The original is best ✨. I like it!
