I’d love to have one for !microbiology@mander.xyz, and I have this sketch I made that I’d be happy to use, but it doesn’t quite fit the style of other communities:
Is someone in particular making these, or are they coming from a particular place?
I like this style a lot! Thanks for sharing it! I am away from my computer this weekend but I can add it as an icon tuesday morning. The style is unique and stands out, but I do think it fits well with other icons. And I am not trying to adhere to a specific style. I would just need to either make the bacteria lie inside of a white circle or make the background transparent, and then test that the width/height ratio is correct such that the image doesn’t get cropped.
The first community icons and the mander icon I drew with inkscape, and my girlfriend helped me make some, like the jumping spider for /c/arachnology. More recently some users have contributed their own icons to a few communities. And a few days ago I asked an AI called Midjourney to make a few icons for some communities that didn’t have them.
It’s great to see the care that goes for this instance.
I’m also happy to contribute with icons and other graphics if anyone needs them- just give me a nudge.
Great! I can move stuff around a bit so it works a bit better in a circle. I can also share a transparent and white-background version to play with - the bugs are a bit translucent, so just removing the background with Photoshop/Gimp won’t work that well
