Come one, come all! Today we begin the voting process for Aux’s logo! This poll will run for one week (2024-05-12 through 2024-05-18). Once complete, the top-voted logo will become the official Aux logo! Note that you may vote for as many options as you would like. If you like two logos, vote for both. Please also note that some tweaks may be made to the winning logo to fit into different use cases.
Also I didn’t look at the vote till now @jakehamilton I did mean for this one (dark background) to be the candidate for smiling instead of the white background. (Its got a few adjustments the white background doesn’t)
Probably won’t get any votes if added now but maybe worth swapping with the light background one.
Honestly the second one is amazing, having just the little head as a “minimal” logo for icons and whatever, and the full logo for branding in general. I just think the colors are a bit weird? I dont know! Looks nice either way
You will indeed lose all the existing votes if you restart a poll, but that’s what happens when you start the poll without making sure you’ve got all the nominations. Not even all the nominations that had positive comments in the nominations thread!
I’m not sure whether I need to explicity point out that you didn’t specify a format before closing nominations.
If this is how you run a poll, I’m not comfortable with your efforts at running a community.
It may be a good idea to take a break for a little bit, the response here seems a little disproportionate.
I didn’t think I had to clarify that the logo submission should be an image, but now I know. It’s an honest mistake. If you want to submit an image version I can still add it to the poll and we can extend the runtime until next Monday.
He missed my image too by accident. But let’s keep things in perspective, this is the first real poll for this discourse (license poll was just for feedback). He’s already recognized (in a different thread) that this poll/nomination wasn’t the greatest, and that future ones would be different.
I don’t think this poll was intended to be too serious, it was just that some logo was better than nothing, and probably was best to get community feedback rather than just Jake pick a temporary one on his own.
To make this postive, I didnt even think about nomination formats when I gave my 2cents about making polls better. I’d really like to hear your ideas @Heliobri in the Voting and Ensuring Integrity thread.
