I'd love to propose something like aboves picture as new instance icon - to make it more "lemmy-like" Maybe not my exact picture, which I put quickly together in photoshop, but maybe someone could smooth it out or make something similar to this.

Of course :) Like I said its a bit rough but maybe that's not even visible at that size.
I know nothing about photoshop etc, literally not a clue so sorry in advance for these possibly stupid questions :)
I think the ears get cut off at the tips so the image needs shrinking a touch. Also yeah I can see when you say it's bit rough when I zoom in, compared to the normally Lemmy icon. What would need to happen to bring the resolution up? I think this image goes on the join lemmy website too so will need to be at their quality maybe?
I litterally left reddit and joined Lemmy today, so I don't know if I'm doing this right, but anyway.
I liked OP's design, and i have a little bit of experience with illustrator (or in my case, affinity designer) so i made a high res version of OP's original, and also some other versions with some changes which might help.
Sorry OP, I cant remember how to do patterned strokes so the zip is a little off, but i tried to be as close to yours as I could.
Man those ones are awesome!
Second one is my favorite, it comes closest to my idea that the left eye is the zipper thingy.
Cheers! And same to you, I like the design.
I’m not really that creative, just good at making high res stuff since it used to be my job
Could you make a version of the second one with the ears and the whiskers behind the head?
Here you go, a version of your original with fixed ears and whiskers:
And @[email protected], here's a fixed version of the one that is up at the moment, I'm not used to the actual Lemmy logo yet so I didn't notice it was off haha
Thats great, I've updated it thank you :)
Awesome, thank you!
Oh yeah, I didn’t even notice that they moved to the front, whoops.
I’ll have a look
