Logo Proposal for NuKeeper

[area55git]

Hi, I'm a graphic designer and I like to collaborate with open source projects. Do you know that the graphic image of a project is very important? thinking about it I would like to design a logo for your Project NuKeeper.

I will be pleased to collaborate with you.

[area55git]

Following the graphical line of NuGet I present this proposal

If you like I can send you the files in PNG, SVG or any format you need.

[AnthonySteele]

Hello

Thanks!

For context, the current icon that I use for the NuKeeperBot account is not worth keeping - It's just the NuGet logo and a "robot face" emoji pasted together by me.
And something better would be nice and we would definitely give credit where it's due.

So, the proposed logo is very similar to the https://www.nuget.org/ logo, with the diagonal line from top left to bottom right, and circles + squares. This is actually good, so long as it's not too similar.

If I was to add one thing, I want to keep the idea of "automation". I don't know how you represent that in a logo though.

[area55git]

Generally the concept of automation is represented by a gear or a robotic arm.

What do you think of these proposals?

[AnthonySteele]

I like the second one with the gear. The first seems to have too many "moving parts".
I think I would prefer a (slightly) brighter, bolder shade of blue

[area55git]

Perfect, I will prepare the files in various formats (SVG, PNG, JPG and others)
I will send you a link in GoogleDrive and I will make a PR to place the logo in the Readme folder and merge it.

[area55git]

Hi @AnthonySteele, What color option do you like?

[AnthonySteele]

The blue at top left. Also, the other logo with the gear.

[area55git]

Hi @AnthonySteele

[slang25]

❤️ #3

[AnthonySteele]

Agreed # 3 is best!

[area55git]

Perfect, I will prepare the final files in various formats and sizes, I will also make an RP to place the logo in the Readme folder to merge.

[area55git]

The files will be on a link in GDrive

[area55git]

Hi @AnthonySteele The final art is ready, can you create a folder called "Logo" in the repository to upload them?

[area55git]

I made this design for the Readme folder, do you like it?
If approved, let me know to make a PR and place it so that I can merge it

PR #371
I could not upload the files to the "Logo" folder, excuse me but I do not know how to do it. I just made the change in the Readme folder.

[AnthonySteele]

I have added those files to the /Logo/ folder. Named NuKeeperTopBar.jpg and NuKeeperBottomBar.jpg.
Also the .svg file is stored there. Can you adjust paths in your PR?

[area55git]

That's enough for my portfolio, just merge the PR, thank you very much for allowing my contribution in your project. If you need a logo for another Repository you can contact me.

[AnthonySteele]

Merged and looking good!
Thank you so much!
