Create a logo that is 512x512 square dimension in PNG format without animations. Suggested file size should be 10k or less. Use a lossy image tool (such as pngquant) to reduce file size while keeping the image quality at around 80%.

MAINTAINERS: The logo should be added to the root folder of the repo, and be named logo.png. This must be present on your project’s default branch. If you have a logo as the first image in the Images field on your project page, please remove it. The logo will be displayed on the cards in the Project Browser grid and list views.

Hello! Logo attached for consideration, based on Redis's real logo.

Based on feedback for another logo I added, swapping the original out in favor of a transparent-background version of the logo. The word "redis" now has a slight white stroke on it for better contrast if it appears on a dark background.

Forgot to optimize the image to reduce size. Reuploading.

The last file has the expected sizes. +1 for me.
But just one thing. I haven't seen any other transparent logos around. What does the community think about this?

Moving to NR, to wait for the community's opinion about the transparency.

Although the border helps with displaying on the dark background.
The stroke may cause the kerning and legibility issue, especially on the smaller icon for the list.

Based on the Redis brand guideline, the current proposed logo may violate these two rules.

  • Do not change the orientation
  • When using a dark solid color background, always use the reversed logo

Use the original horizontal logo or just the cube and make it with a default background color would be better, IMO.

Thanks for the catch on the brand guidelines. Two new versions attached, one with the cube and one with the full wordmark, both on a white background.

I prefer the version without text. The text will be on the project card anyway, so duplicating on the logo seems unnecessary. Text on images is not accessible to screen readers. Text makes image files larger, and can cause issues when scaling to small sizes. Finally, the text takes up significant space, so leaving it out allows a larger and more recognisable logo image.

Whichever version is used, I agree it looks better on the solid background.

Both versions have correct dimensions and fit the file size expectations.
