Even the person who made that icon has stopped defending it against the one we produced in collaboration w him, he was a hard critic til we got it right. See our pinned thead. FreedCreative was also involved, but is no longer on fedi afawct. It took collaborators from Jan21 to mid-22 to get this usable design. Almost everyone who is not ex-military prefers the #fediOrigami variant. Military people and pentograms, right?
To celebrate the total demise of #birdsite as a thing, we **finally** had the PNG image files added to this page.

Adding a fediverse icon to your website is now easier than ever!
Boosts welcomed.

Speaking of "#fediverseButtons" you may be interested in using the #FediverseIcon we developed over the course of two years with consultation from various Fedizens, who were interested in a better icon.
Find our pinned toot that chronicles the development quite nicely (last we checked), or simply visit the repo:

It was done for a more usable icon for general use on websites. As you may see in the thread the story is very simple. Someone in Jan'21 said fedi has no "official icon", and we, an Australian-based supporters group, realised they were right, there is a real need for something more usable than the seldom used variant at the time, and…3/4

PNGs are not uploaded yet but it's trivial to download the SVG and convert them to PNG using #Inkscape. We strongly recommend PNG for #TorBrowser users who cannot view SVG.

YOUTUBE ALTERNATIVE ICONS
If you've ditched #YouTube for #Peertube or Fedi, consider one of these for a bold statement.
Theese icons have a similar shape and colour to the legacy site but designed from the party-style of the #fediOrigami icon.

THE TRANSPARENT #PNG
The minimum pixel-size of this lineStyle variant is 48px. You can get that by reducing this image to 6.25% in GIMP.
Need 96px? Reduce to 12.5% etc

The following are of the party colouration but using lines in the style of #arcticons a theme for #handhelds. As such we welcome @donno and @joel to have their say.
Of course #GPL'ly and #SVG format.

We produced How-To-Draw for the #fediverseIcon.
It was produced completely without measurements and somehow we produced it at #A4 (1mm off — ie. 211mm rather than 210). We produced it for the web anyway — so don't even think about #printing it!
:P

Pleased to announced v3.
Something wasn't sitting right. A friend we miss, Freed Creative, said rounded edges suit fedi better, we went and tried that and it solved our annoyance. Also improved the colours of 'party' version, and shapes generally.
Now also with both an on-light and on-dark sticker.

'Party' (gradient) version.
The SVG is ready to be uploaded. If anyone wants to serve it (@lightone ?)

As promised here is v2 of the #fediOrigami design.
More chilled, subtle brown, fixed the green (decided against exact fedivert), shorted the green base so the icon is slightly more square (does make it more clear).
This is the "party" palette of the #FediOrigami icon design.
It includes gradients and is more suited to websites that are going for a more colourful, vibrant look.
Pleased to showcase our last Fediverse icon design. We're calling it '#fediOrigami'.
If you have ideas to improve it, please tell us and we'll consider. There are two colour palettes for this design. This palette is the "organic" palette, see below for the other.
SVG to be uploaded. If you have a repo and would like to host this content, again, just sing out.
