New favicon for TiddlyServer - Comments?

[Arlen Beiler]

Hello Everyone,

I made a new icon for TiddlyServer, since every windows program needs an icon :)

What do you think? Do you like it? Don't like it? The hexagonal shape is inspired by NodeJS. I didn't really want to include the cat because it felt like too much noise. But maybe I don't need to. After all, something distinctive stands by itself after a day or two. 

Thanks,

Arlen

And a few more I thought of after I sent the last email.

And here's a preview of how the white one looks next to the original.

I don't know, what do you think? :)

Arlen,

Given the number of Cats in my Pined Tabs, I would be happy with the first.

Here are a couple more cat options to add variation to your cats :)

Looks great but,...

tiddly.* without cat?

Really? I dont know...

Thats like Apple without apple, Mercedes without star...

(There is a similar but different cat in Riga: https://www.tripadvisor.de/Attraction_Review-g274967-d289084-Reviews-Cat_House-Riga_Riga_Region.html, and since Jack is rumoured to come from a farawy place, to....)

Having the same icon/logo on very component makes it easier for newcomers. And branding helps...

Ciao Arlen

You don't need the whole cat. A face would do. Or a tail. Or a comic version.

More seriously, I favour use of the cat in some way because its the nearest thing we have to a signature mark.





Thomas gave some images too.

How about the last one with the letters "TS" scaled to fill it?

Alternatively one could just use the shape you present but have some "Cat Badge" appear somewhere else.

Best wishes
Josiah

I favour

 relevant, simple, & meaningful icons.

An astronomic image, IMHO, is not appropriate to your case.

I think it would be more convenient to combine 

the

​standard TW's ​

cat

with some (static?) file server icon
