In reply to:@tenderlove I’m gonna shave my beard off tomorrow.
“The people united will never be divided” is a truism.
It’s meant to be “The people united will never be defeated”.
In reply to:@evanphx The grey states are like “WY ME?” :P

Previously on IndieWebCamp Logo Redesign
I’ve been in the process of redesigning the IndieWebCamp logo. The last round of iterations ended with this version which had an admittedly not the best C in the logomark.
No new attention has been paid to the logotype. Ignore that for now.
Iterations of Rounded C Knockout
Based on suggestions from the #IndieWebCamp IRC channel, I worked on rounding off the knockout in the C.
Original version with rectangle and square corners knockout
Iteration with rectangle and rounded corners knockout
Iteration with pill shape knockout
Iteration with taller pill shape knockout
Iteration with longer pill shape knockout
I felt like this read more like a C. It’s pretty fun, kind of looks like a racecar drive / astronaut helmet. And it’s pretty evenly balanced within itself and within the whole logomark. So at this point, I made the one color and three color versions.
Tennis ball iterations

But after a while, it started feeling like a tennis ball. I got some more feedback from the #IndieWebCamp IRC channel which led me down the path of using just a single cut for the knock out.
Iterations of Thin C Knockout
Here are four slightly different variations of the same idea. Rounded vs square. Half vs three quarters width.

The third one resonated best with the group. I like it too. So, I made the outlines and three color version as well.

If these versions are well accepted by the group, the next step is really nail down the logotype. Which is currently fine, but not that great.
Again, direct any converation about this over to the IndieWebCamp wiki’s /logo page.
@brianloveswords Error. Please allow me to remind you about table based layouts and pixel perfect designs.
@chrisaldrich Fixed. https://www.facebook.com/events/1701240643421269
In reply to:@chrisaldrich Hmm. It's a private event somehow. But I don't see how to change that on Facebook. 😕

Raising the minimum wage to $15 by 2022 is colossally too little too late and doesn’t help the millions of people who need that wage now.
In reply to:@mattetti Nah. Just saw that post and was admiring the wildness of the place because humans left. Maybe one day.
If not for the radiation, I’d love to explore Chernobyl.
