Backup and Migrate - create a logo

Created on 12 May 2023, about 1 year ago
Updated 19 September 2023, 9 months ago

Create a logo that is 512x512 square dimension in PNG format without animations. Suggested file size should be 10k or less. Use a lossy image tool (such as pngquant) to reduce file size while keeping the image quality at around 80%.

MAINTAINERS: The logo should be added to the root folder of the repo, and be named logo.png. This must be present on your project’s default branch. If you have a logo as the first image in the Images field on your project page, please remove it. The logo will be displayed on the cards in the Project Browser grid and list views.

Proposed resolution

The existing logo proved difficult to work into the 10k requirement due to all the gradients being used. A new logo thta's similar was created. Passing this one over to the module maintainers to consider.

    It would make a good project for someone who is new to the Drupal contribution process. It's preferred over Newbie.

    I kept the dump truck from existing in my mind while creating new logos.
    Please review.

    Thanks

    I like the dumper truck idea, but I find the implementation a little bit too busy. If it could be simplified, maybe with a more styalised version of the truck, I think it would have potential.

    At present, I think my preference is for @Dandolorion's because of the clean lines. I'm really liking white logos on a coloured background, so I've gone for that version. At the moment, this version gets my +1.

    I've confirmed that both logos are PNG images, have a resolution of 512x512 and are under 10K.

  • Good morning, I here, I also leave my suggestion, it has the specified sizes, as well as a transparent background.

    I don't understand logo 6 and doesn't represent the module as much as the second logo in comment 4.
    I like the more solid logo versus the one with the green.

    Here's a preview of @JVBrian's logo from #6.

    It's nice, but it took me a while to figure out the top part was a cloud. Also, there are plenty of non-cloud backup options, so I don't think that fully represents the module's function.

    I agree with @volkswagenchick that the 2nd logo in #4 is representative of the functionality. Since the dump truck logo is already associated with the module though, I like @urvashi_vora 's https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2023-08-02/backup-migrate-2.png → which is similar to what is already on the module, but it the correct size. Maybe add a few lines behind the tires to indicate backing up?

    Adding few more versions, please review.

    Thanks

    I've had a look at the current logo the module is using. It's very large, but it also has a lot of gradiants, so it is difficult to get anywhere near 10K, even when reduced to 512x512.

    As an alternative, I have redrawn, keeping to flat colors. I tried redrawing the 1s and 0s without the shading, but it was proving difficult to keep them looking nice, so I've replaced with a drupalicon in the tipper truck instead. I've also put motion lines behind the wheels, indicating it's backing up.

    I've made a preview:

    The logo looks great @lostcarpark.

    Agree that this new logo looks good and meets the requirements.

    Also, it's close to the existing logo on the module page on Drupal.org. Moving to RTBC
