Re: How would you feel about this derivative logo for Nonguix?
Thank you all so far for your feedback. I'm taking note of your suggestions and the suggestions on Gitlab. I'll give the thread a few more days before trying new logo variants based on your feedback. Hopefully, it'll get more comments in the meantime. Cheers, OpenPGP_0x0AB0D067012F08C3.asc Description: OpenPGP public key OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I think it would be best to avoid the all-caps look, though, because we're already losing the fight in correcting people who insist on writing "GUIX" as if it was an acronym. "RTOS GUIX" is the name of the Microsoft thing. Perhaps the tail could be a little curved towards the end? -- Ricardo

I like A1, although in a fit of disrespect I might have placed the horns upside down like a scorpion... Great work. The project is very lucky to have you! Kind regards Felix P.S. Please do not use Nonguix if you can avoid it.

There's a clear visual continuity, but with warnings and (in options B-D) part of the Guix horns covered up as well, emphasizing the "non." I had read rms's "install fest devil" idea and immediately thought of it when I saw your options, even without making the connection that the red line was a tail (I thought it was an arrow pointing left?) - it might be an obscure reference to many but I think your execution was spot on in that regard. Not that my say-so carries any weight, but one thumbs up from me. Cheers, Ryan
How would you feel about this derivative logo for Nonguix?
Hi, Nonguix would like to have a logo. @jonsger contacted me asking if I'd be interested in helping them with that, based on logo ideas from the community. I don't use nonguix myself, so I thought I wouldn't have the motivation to design a logo. But I couldn't help it and suggested to reuse the GNU Guix logo (which is a free cultural work after all) and proposed the following designs: https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix/-/issues/317 That page also mentions the reasoning behind the derivative logo. I don't see any issue if Nonguix uses such a logo (specially variant D2), but what do you think about it? They don't want to upset the GNU Guix community.
