Way back at the beginning, when genAI was new and LemmyNZ had but one user, our logo was created. It's terrible, it's AI generated, and I hate it.

lemmyNZ logo - kind of a 3d lemmyish creature with green rays coming out, with an AI generated vibe

I am keen to get a new one! There's also an option to get a new banner if that's what people want, though people have expressed that they like the current banner.

lemmyNZ banner - the famous Laser kiwi flag that was submitted to the flag competition when NZ tried to change it's flag. It's black with a silver fern at top left, and a kiwi shape on the bottom right with a green laser coming out of it's eyes down to just above the bottom left corner of the flag

This post is to ask for people to supply their ideas for a new logo or banner. Hopefully there are some artists out there that can help! After we have some options I will organise a vote.

i can try to draw something but a) i am shit at drawing and b) it might take me a while to figure something out because of a).

edited to add: just an idea but maybe the banner could be a monthly community thing? like if people have nice/fun photos they have taken around the motu, or relevant art they have made, pop it into a monthly pinned thread to choose the banner for the following month?

    We actually tried having a rotating banner for the c/newzealand community, but didn't get many submissions after the first month 🙁

    We can give time for you (and others) to have a play at making a logo, no rush.
