The openSUSE community’s logo contest submission phase is now complete and voting for the logos has begun.
This competition marks a pivotal moment for openSUSE and the voting goes until Dec. 10.
Before making any selections, people are encouraged to visit en.opensuse.org/Logocontest and view the logos before voting.
The number of submissions speaks volumes about the community’s enthusiasm and engagement with 18 submissions for Kalpa, 24 submissions for Slowroll, 21 submissions for Leap, 32 submissions for Tumbleweed and an impressive 36 submissions for a potential new openSUSE logo.

In my opinion one of the full design themes should be picked because some of those single designs look very nice individually but would clash with others.
My pick would be Emiliano’s theme, it looks the most like an evolution of the opensuse style. Imo the others are either a bit too minimalist or deviate too strongly from the original design.
Nikolayan’s design is also good, but I prefer Emiliano’s because that you can recognise the chameleon better in every logo.
I like this one

It is a friendly recognizable chameleon and they did a good job with integrating the existing abstract logos.
From the Solo designs I loved the ones with the branch with different endings a lot. It had a warm touch to it, but was a little to filigrane for a logo.
That one is my favourite. Cute chameleon (or was it gecko), but also simple. Looks great
Always has been a chameleon. It was named Geeko, which generated some confusion.
Kinda looks like an embryo to me.
I can’t help but see a squirrel!
Bottom row, 2nd from the left. Simple, clean, distinct.
Does the order get shuffled each time?
In the thumbnail?

Ailyaut must be a debian fan :)
No
Agreed, it really stands apart from all the rest.
Even from the one right next to it that looks almost identical??
Especially that one.
These are two variations from the same artist.
Aliyaut’s logo? It is clean, but it’s hardly even identifiable as a gecko. It blends in too much with all the modern corporate logos we have today IMHO. It’s not a bad choice if they decide to go with it, but they could do better.
Ah yes, green Debian
I love all of the minimalist options here, they are so cute!
Bottom row, far right. Simple, minimalist, caffeinated, unhinged.
Also looks like Toothless from How To Train Your Dragon.
This is a very important feature
People would ask what guy is it
I don’t hate it. I feel like the goofy smile makes it just distinguishable enough to stick out from all the other minimalist logos.
Personally, I like the theme by td0 the most. Minimalism was never my preferred style. Although, I don’t like the color choice for leap specifically.
Bottom and 2nd from left Bottom and right most
These look nice
The survey is crap on Mobile! Literally not useable
Please not another ultra minimal mono color logo
Too bad for you, they already have the logos for some of the variants and that’s exactly what they’re going for.

Agony
Yeah felt very obvious which ones will be chosen regardless of the survey…
I don’t feel like they’re inherently bad, but they’ve become so popular that they all feel like they’re blending together. I think it’s kind of stale at this point.
Is there a reason given why they can’t use their current logo?
They can, they just want to change branding to look less like SUSE logo
I really like these two : <img alt="1000000785" src="https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/f21dc6a8-f4ab-446f-8a72-55630a5b8350.jpeg"> <img alt="1000000786" src="https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/6aff108b-aec0-4acf-ae33-497a44439bbd.jpeg">
The first one is definitely a xenomorph
<img alt="" src="https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/d4a33f71-79f2-4bae-be11-577001bc63ff.jpeg">
too bad they're already doing minimal mono color logos. maybe if one of these designs shifted to adding up all of the colors of the remixes it'd work
the calebp one is cute
Note that there are way more logos than those you see in the preview.
I just hope they don’t ruin the logo with too much minimalism. There are good submission in all of that
.
I like the chameleon
Most of them are pretty good IMO
The Kalpa goatse logo is interesting

Giga and Frogster looks nice
I always lean to logos that also has the name of the company in them, but that’s my personal preference
Giga, but tuck openSUSE closer to the mascot. Use the negative space between the feet and above the open in a clever way.
The Leap version logo where there is a line ‘making’ a leap is very clever
The center bottom one looks like the sicp snake.

The survey was absolute hell on mobile until I actually read the part where it says you can just double click. Made it so much easier. I personally chose the more intricate designs as my favorite and less intricate and more simplified designs as my least favorite. Detailed and intricate designs or nothing for me.
pprmint designs are by far superior imo
I liked the ones that didn’t stray too much from the original. I always liked the gecko, but found it to be a bit weird looking.
Can someone explain to me what the fuck are the abominations labeled “Pab150n”?
I am a bit late but this is the description: Represents the redesign of the SUSE logo to combine it with Colombian styles from the 70s and 80s
Thanks, just looking at it made me dizzy lol.
