New logo for Bromite

[csagan5]

Bromite needs a new logo. The current logo is a derivation of Chromium logo and it makes sense since Bromite is 99% Chromium, but for the sake of the project it is better to have an original one.

I am thinking to create a submission window and reference it from the official website to give it visibility, and/or create a Reddit post for this. Suggestions welcome.

Edit: I added the official news post here: https://www.bromite.org/news/2018-09-05-submissions-for-new-logo
it will be edited and act as the reference for the submissions for the time being

What about these icons?
All suggestions should be posted here.

It could be me but I don't understand what the icons are trying to express.
I checked Wikipedia for the chemical formula of Bromite (I thought this is the background for the name), but it's too complex for an icon 😅

I remember those, nothing worth using IMO, they are a quick job. There was even an user that setup a steemit page claiming he did some work for this open source project; we are not using any of those.

First of all, who said material design? I know Chromium is getting a new material design UI with release 69, but it does not mean that everything must be done in material design for Bromite as well. I personally would prefer a minimalist design.

Second, those are quick jobs. They were posted a day from the moment I said Play Store does not like Bromite's logo (note: I never asked for a logo submission back then). None of them cater the idea of a browser in my opinion. Also I would stay away from trying to visualize the idea of privacy, it is difficult and ambiguous.

The only one which was probably done decently is this: https://steemit.com/utopian-io/@iamfo/sngt-version-and-my-version-new-proposed-logo-design-for-bromite

I have great respect for the work of designers, but the donations are not enough to pay one properly. Any work done for the logo of Bromite will be obviously a donation itself, since 100$ are probably an indecent amount for most professionals (depends from the part of the world, I know).

This may interest you.

I will give a look. There is also 99talent, but I am not sure I want to register to some platform that will send me endless spam for life if I want to use the service once.

@subh98 thanks, it would be too similar to the Chromium logo though. That is an exclusion criteria as described here.

Hi, I have a new icon suggestion for bromite!
png format:

svg format:
MyBromiteIcon.zip

The chemical formula of bromite ion is hidden in this icon😎
I do not know what it looks like, a green Doraemon maybe, with red (bromine is a red liquid) hairs and eyes😅

Hello, I will make my proposal 😃

[ggabogarcia]

Hello here are my proposals, I made 3.

The first proposal is a test tube inside a circle which represents the world.

In the second proposal I made an extraction of the image of the chemical component, in which I superimposed circles according to the pattern.

The third one I focus on when you say:

For example the logo - in its most basic design - could be a greenish world with a test tube overlayed.
