I don't have any experience with those kinds of combining methods for SVG, but I see it now. Thank you for pointing that out. I will make appropriate changes and adopt these techniques. Should be updated in about an hour or two 👍 |

Update: Believe I'm getting close to finish now, doing it the correct way. Feel free to verify. I just need to make final adjustments to the highlighted part that I missed, as they could create a small section of "blur", then make another push. |

Pardon this possibly ignorant question- is there any reason to have these versions in this repository of canonical forms, since they can be trivially generated from either of the color versions by changing the color to black/white?

To answer your first question, they are 100% identical. I will have to rename the index logo to make it consistent and logical with the colour versions.
To cater for differences in versions, the naming could be something like
zig_logo_black.svg for colour symbol, black text.
zig_logo_white.svg for colour symbol, white text.
zig_logo_black.nev.svg for black symbol, black text.
zig_logo_white.nev.svg for white symbol, white text.
zig_symbol_color.svg for colour symbol.
zig_symbol_white.nev.svg for white symbol.
zig_symbol_black.nev.svg for black symbol.
Second question, there's two reasons you'd have these versions.
-
If for print, white/light version is sometimes adjusted slightly to be "thicker" some places to make up for ink flow tightening margins, much like smaller sizes on screen. This reason is not applicable here for web.
-
Second reason is to have easily accessible versions for people that do not have access to nor knowledge of working with SVG's. If you feel like this is not a concern, you can remove the folders containing copies in various colour combinations.

the "full logo" part can be removed now, yeah?

You mean the part of the reference in the README.md? Yeah, doesn't matter much as the naming is clear like it is now.
Aside from that, yes, it is ready :)

Done! Thanks again. It looks great! |

@KeyboardRage is there a missing crisp edge on the top bottom of the Z?
|
Shouldn't be. Changed that along with top of the "opening bracket" yesterday—but that doesn't change the fact that it looks like it, and most likely is. 🤔 |
Reference to issue #5
I've made the optimizations I could find on the logos. Feel free to do a double-check in case I missed something.
The logo on one of the illustrations was also changed to have new version of logo.
I've also added versions of the logos, and a short description on when to use which logo versions.
Color changed from initial version I proposed, where the orange was a bit off from what you currently use—this has been adjusted to be the same as the color you are currently using, so it is consistent with existing theme.
