Love the Lego ones! =D

And the wooden ones.

AND the coffee cup ones!

I had no idea there were so many styles! I never pay much attention to them, since I don't go to too many networking sites. I have a Facebook page that I update occasionally, and a MySpace page that I almost never visit.

I think the inclusion of "US" may be (incorrectly) perceived by some as divisive or parochial - "US = U.S." rather than "US = us". There are a lot of us here from all over the world, and we may as well try to be as inclusive as possible, not least by simple implication.So my vote is for a simple "X" in its distinctive form.

Here are some. My aim was to make some which looked sociable and receptive.

Are there specific dimensions for these images that you need? Like favicons are always 16x16. What pixel dimensions do you need?

 

I don't know how these examples are being created, but they're of extremely low graphic quality. I'm not half bad at making buttons (I favor orb buttons, myself), so let me know if you have that piece of information.

There are no specific size requirements at this time. For quality purposes, it is probably better to make them larger and then re-size them.

I like the simplicity of the double orbits with nothing else. It looks cleaner. Anything more like adding the "us" at the end is confusing or cluttering. Just keep it simple.

I made a few icons with different color schemes. They're at pretty standard sizes: 16x16, 32x32, 64x64. The images you see below are PNGs and useable as they are.

The "X" as it stands is just a bit too thin to hold up on small icons, so I made it a bit thicker for these. It's still recognizable as the same logo.

 

 

 

 

 

Should I try any other color variations? What do you think?

Cory, I really like these. It is along the line of what we want.

I wonder if we should pretty up the colors somewhat? They match our theme, but I don't know if they would look the best up against other buttons.

Also, do you think the buttons would look good if the "X" expanded to the edges to divide the box into four pieces? Maybe our orange with a clear "X"?
