Introducing STEEM POWER & STEEM DOLLAR Symbols

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

Hey guys!

Few weeks ago I started designing some Steem related infographics and a web UI. I couldn't find symbol designs for STEEM POWER and STEEM DOLLAR, so I had to create them myself. I have put a lot of effort into this, because I want to use the icons in all my upcoming projects. In fact I hope that with the feedback from the community we could arrive to a standard set of symbols that everyone can use.

Enjoy!

The CLASSIC set aims to merge widely recognized symbols with the original Steem logo style.

The FLOW set takes slightly more adventurous approach and tries to create symbols that feel more animated and less constrained.

The ELEMENTAL set uses only the 3 fundamental elements of the original Steem logo to achieve a minimalistic and futuristic look.

I personally love the aesthetics of the ELEMENTAL set most, but I think the CLASSIC set wins in terms of combining best of the two worlds - conventional symbols and the unique feel of the original Steem logo.

Please let me know in the comments which ones you prefer most!

Also feel free to post any suggestions and modifications.

Sent you $500 SBD as a donation and thank you! enjoy

Now THAT is what should be happening around here! People getting rewarded directly when they do something worthwhile like this. Hats off to you, Cass, for your designs and for rewarding someone directly with a significant gift for inspiring your own post.

I've seen it happen before where someone reposts someone else post as a "Showcase", and fully giving credit mind you, but they end up getting a couple thousand and the original only got 5 bucks or something, but there was no sharing of the reward. So wonderful to see someone give back to the source!! This should be a part of the culture here.

If you get a nice payday from being inspired by someone else, give them something back!

Cheers

Thank you so much for the support! Your designs are fantastic!

Creative..I like the FLOW... I think Craig Grant would agree :)

Creative! @ned & @dan make them official!

Love the graphics! Definitely can see these being used in the future! I personally like the classic icons the best!

These look awesome! Good job!

These are great! I love seeing the community make these new cool things daily!

great work!
my personal preference:
for Steem and Steem Power = Classics
for Steem Dollars = Flow.

great job! :) i prefer the flow and classic variants
are the admins currently looking for new icons for those currencies? i would also like to give it a try and present my own icons for that matter.

Some of these are simply fantastic..!

Double uptucks!

@calva upvote this man

Great post! Makes me want to go buy steem!

Neat design skills man! You reached the TOP 10 Trending articles on Steemit so I've added your post to the Flipboard Steemit Trending Magazine for everyone to see it. Nice work! Keep at it.

I LOVED THESE.
And I love when people deserve their up-votes
take my two pennies

love the classic 8]
nice work @deepsynergy

Very nice, design is a very underrated work here, it's all about developersdevelopersdevelopers!

My only critic is that I think some of these could suffer in smaller sizes. Keep up the great work!

Thank you so much! I included tiny icons for each set. They should be showing that it copes well with resizing even at very small scale.

@deepsynergy: I like classic steem and classic steem power symbols, and I like the elemental steem dollar one! If we had to use these symbols in the public domain though , one day they may have to be more simple, so not an icon, but a very basic symbol based off the icon.

Ty for vote. I am a graphic designer. You're really cool

May be it's possible to make a simple voting box inside the post to deside which one is better collectively?

Love it - imagine the creative potential of the most giftet artists on the planet that the steemit community will unleash - buckle up for awesomeness ;-)

Thank you. I was also looking for quality STEEM logos. You did a great job designing all the various elements. I will follow you and hope yo be able to use your symbols in posts.

nice work you did
flow is great

👍nice, I like ur logo... Keep ur work

loved flow too! but they are all good

For me elemental is the best, has more synergy and the power of 3's

These logos are really cool. Probably we should use them in our apps too!

So cool! I will use some in my next steem website if you agree!

Sure, they are free to use for the whole community!

Elemental is the best! Simple makes perfect (not sure, but seems Henry Cartier-Bresson said it)

Great Post! Flow looks great in my opinion.

Really love these! Great work!

Well done!

Muito bom! I love all, but the Classic is most Objective.

I like most of these the only thing I do not like is the Steem dollars symbols they all use the same S shape and I think that S looks pretty poor. Overall great job maybe redesign steem dollars.

Thank you for your feedback! I tried a lot of S shapes and this is the only one that made it feel like it is related to the main Steem logo. The color was not enough to convey the relationship. But I will try to come up with an alternative when I receive more similar feedback. So thanks again for taking your time to reply!

Classic for me ! Really good work, overall the simple clean lines of the Classic speak of the cool, collected, community power of the Steam cryptoworld. I also like how they give a nod to the fact that humans have "tamed and directed" steam power in order to make it a source of power. Peace.

Definitely Classic.

You are an excellent designer! Great work!

Thank you so much!

Classic. Nice work.

Awesome Job!!!

Excellent!!, i choose classic

where i can see the infographics?

My 2 favourites are elemental and flow. I hope your designs are considered.

Very well, but if nothing is done here, is what will happen to steemit: Read this is very important https://steemit.com/steem/@stea90/read-very-important-why-the-market-volume-and-value-of-steem-continue-to-decrease-what-will-happen

Great job! It's very distinct yet recognizable. My votes go to:
Steem Power: CLASSIC
Steem: CLASSIC
Steem Dollar: FLOW

These are all awesome, there's to many to pick!

i like the classic and flow steem power. the steem dollar looks a little forced i would work on it more from one graphic designer to another

All these are well done :) My favorite is the classic. Where it shows steem power, it has 3 waves but you can still recoginize it as a power button...what a underlying message you got there ;)

Some creative branding visual expressions going here @deepsynergy. Quite inspiring.
