#1 is our previous icon.
#2 is our current icon.
It was suggested yesterday that we revert back to our previous Discord icon (#1), or to one which uses a 'proper' logo of ours, more in line with what a couple of our other places use.
I took issue with the first because it was a very basic, temporary icon I slapped together in about 20 seconds using pre-existing artwork when the channel was created, just so we had one up there, and was the reason I later chose to design #2 so we had something a little nicer for our channel and something which had actually had some real time spent on it.
I took issue with the second part because I feel that #2 is as much a logo of ours (whilst yes, being based off the Persona 5 inspired design I did at the time) as any other avatar, sig or banner which has used different variations of the star over the years, and that (I feel) they are all representative of the Shattered Star even if we do have a standard star & colour scheme for it. Not just that, but if #2 isn't to be considered as such, then using that argument, neither should the previous icon with its missing outer ring. (Using the exact same (standard/official) styled star and colours every time would get quite restrictive and boring when it comes to designing stuff too..)
Anyway, I have put together a bunch of different icons for you guys to pick from. We can revert back to #1 if people want, stick with our current icon (#2) or go with something from #3 - #10 which are a mix of icons using other existing STR artwork as well as a few new and adjusted ones. Which do you fancy? Top favs?
