Mr. Doodlezz Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Hey Affinity community! Over the last few days I've been tinkering with an alternative app icon for JOEY, an Android client for Reddit. I originally saw a post on Reddit where a user presented their attempt at an alternative symbol. I asked them if I could try my hand at it and refine it a bit and they agreed. These icons are the result and they were quite happy with the outcome. (Please click the preview for more details.) Any constructive criticism is welcome! velarde, dannyg9, Hilltop and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v_kyr Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Since the overall tide on flat design icons got borring over time, I like the top one most!

Have you checked the other versions as well? There are some free forms (aka no squircle) and a colour variant based of the initial draft. 😉 And yes, one or two of them are actually flat designs, but I also prefer some variation in style on my home screen. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I had looked at those too, but as initially said, the one with the white filled background looked best to me and thus would be my first choice here.

Mr. Doodlezz Posted March 31, 2023 Author Share Posted March 31, 2023 Added some variants to the app icon. The baseball cap variant was a bit tricky because you want to stay within the squircle template. Let me know how I've done and which one's your favourite. 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
