Since JuliaCon and its avalanche of stickers are upon us, I thought it would be nice to give JuliaDiff a logo. We have one on GitHub but it’s old and not really differentiation-specific. I gave it a try with Luxor.jl, but I’m a bit of a newbie, so I would really like to know what people on here thin…

The poll is unambiguous , the general direction of the logo will be the \nabla of Julia dots . From now on we’ll focus on suggestions of design for this specific direction, such as: respective size of the gradient and dots spacing between letters contours etc.

[image] cormullion: but using a better font in the first place is probably easier. :wink: It’s the official Julia font so I kinda like it?

[image] cormullion: Drawing the triangle the hard way is probably best. :slight_smile: Question about that: I need two different thicknesses so I have to draw two separate paths, but how can I get the corners to play nicely together? Something like the square linecap here [image]

Might be better as: @draw begin background("white") sethue("black") setfillrule(:even_odd) ngon(O, 100, 3, -π/6, action=:path) ngon(O + (10, 0), 70, 3, -π/6, action=:path) fillpath() end 800 400 [Screenshot 2024-05-01 at 11.35.32] It’s always better to avoid line thickness…

Do you need or want it to be drawn with code? Adjusting the details in a SVG is much easier.

I think it’s nice to use ecosystem tools like Luxor.jl, especially cause we get first class support from @cormullion . And because it makes it easier to change things programmatically

One think I like about having stroke lines in the symbols is that the contrast in dark backgrounds can be adjusted: [image] vs: [image]

[image] lmiq: One think I like about having stroke lines in the symbols is that the contrast in dark backgrounds can be adjusted: True but it feels slightly less “modern”?

My favorite is the M.C. Escher nabla logo from @cormullion . It’s both simple and compelling.

Let’s do a poll between the most popular orientations! The options are: Initial organization logo from GitHub \nabla f with blended colors by @gdalle Original Escher \nabla by @cormullion Rainbows and arrows by @lmiq Nested \nabla by @lmiq 3D Escher \nabla by @gdalle Relativistic Julia gradient by…

Now time for bikeshedding on thicknesses and spacing
