Again, based on @FixedFun 's original designs so creds to them for the idea.

Thoughts about these ones? For the one on the right, I tried a different angle to hopefully give more bird and less bald man.

I’m conflicted. The right bird is pretty, but I think I prefer the left one.
Either way, nicely done.

I liked your first iteration better, to be honest. The left-hand one here is too squat. The right-hand one is cute, though - people are not wrong about that.

Maybe I'm missing context, but I'm not seeing the "bald man" image in either of these. I see that avoiding it is the reasoning behind the right one, but I have to say that I feel a greater appeal towards the left image. Just seems more happy and bright (not in color, as they're the same colors, but in mood from the tilt of the head)

That said, I don't mind the right. Just prefer the left.

Definitely the one on the right! Fun, clean, attractive

[–] PleasantineOhMine@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The one on the left has more character, but they're both adorable!

[–] jontique@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I like the left one's bird design more, but right one has a better "alert" expression.
If I had to pick I'd go for the right one.

Love the on the right, its awake and paying attention just like a social network should.

[–] 34@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm fond of the one on the right.

Since 'kbinaut' is a fairly frequently suggested name for people on kbin, a suggestion I have for a bit of extra fun would be to add an astronaut helmet (kbirdnaut?)

Also right birb best birb, but both are very cute

[–] astrsk@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

One on the right is much better, has a lot more “life” to it.

[–] Scridgeon@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Definitely the one on the right!

[–] DessertStorms@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

No more Sumo wrestler lol

I think right probably just takes it for me, I really like the gap between beak and face on left though.

Either way, good job!

[–] Gamers_Mate@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Both are really good but I prefer the one on the right as a logo.

[–] timmcg@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I really like this update. Having the crest up signifies interest. The old design looks sedated, almost scared, in comparison.

[–] ripcord@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Looks great! And much less dude with a ponytail!

[–] tonyk451@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'll put my vote in for the second one. Cockatoos' crests go up when they call out so it's more accurate :-) (Source: lives in a place with them around)

Support :) love the logo's.
