App icon submissions

[tbodt]

The current iSH home screen icon is not that nice looking. I'm bad at designing icons, so I thought I'd see if any users have good ideas. I'm also bad at judging other people's icons, and iOS apps can change the home screen icon at runtime, so why not put in every icon? Post your icon idea here and I'll add it to the app.

Rules:

• The icon should make sense as an icon for iSH. (duh)
• The icon should not have rounded corners. Those get added by iOS automatically.
• A 1024x1024 PNG of the icon should be under 50kB. I don't want to end up with icons taking up more space than the rest of the app. The current icon fits in 5kB so this shouldn't be too hard.
• To save space, I'll only accept a few different color or style variations of the same icon.
• The icon license must allow it to be used as an icon for iSH. CC-BY-4.0 works well. There will be attribution, in the form of your name and a link to your GitHub post. In case someone forgets: By posting an icon here, you agree to license it under CC-BY-4.0, unless you specify otherwise.

@01010101lzy @TechUpdateGuy any preference on which of the icons you posted you'd like me to use?

[alessaba]

I like @TechUpdateGuy 's first and @PyDann 's third, if my opinion matters 😅

@01010101lzy @TechUpdateGuy any preference on which of the icons you posted you'd like me to use?

I personally prefer the last two "i#"-like icons, although the colors may need some refining.

@01010101lzy I played around a little with the colours on your i# suggestion. Hope that's ok 😀

Probably the text should also be a little bigger?

This is the image

I messed around with one other icon submission but I lost my glasses so if I’m blind please tell me

[tbodt]

@TechUpdateGuy I unfortunately couldn't use your icon because it's too big: 1.5MB as a png, and the limit is 50k

[terhechte]

I dabbled a bit and came up with this (multiple previews for the same icon, I also already exported all the App Store required sizes):

Here're all the required iOS icons (including spotlight and so on)

[terhechte]

I created a unrotated version that mimics the "$" at the beginning of a shell line in an empty container

[tbodt]

@terhechte That's a nice icon, but unfortunately 20x the 50kb limit. I'm considering adjusting the rules so you only need a 256x256 icon to fit in 50kb, rather than 1024x1024. But keep that in mind when submitting.

[terhechte]

@tbodt I can get it to ~180kb as a png and 35kb as a jpeg (in 1024x1024) if that helps. 256x256 would obviously be easy to pull off.

[TechUpdateGuy]

@tbodt I heard you had problem with File Size, so I been creating a Automator Shell Script to compress my files as much as possible. Do you by any chance have preference for the Zip compression " either .zip or .tar.gz" ?. I was planning to submit zip file.

[TechUpdateGuy]

Just Found something interesting, that aligns with App Interface. (24KB w/ ImageOptim)

I made this with Canva so it should'nt be licensed.

So how do I get my logo submitted as a public icon? I’m also on the urgent development team for the latest version via TestFlight.. I’d love to get even more involved but the image would be a great start! Thanks.!
