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 just love it, the Kbird never looked so good, I don’t care about credit I just want the Kbird to exist one way or another

    Ok. I am someone who feels like kbin doesn’t really need a mascot at this point in time. It seems really early and tbh the whole thing feels a little forced. Really not into the bird design either. I just don’t get it…

    But holy shit this new icon on the right has 100% changed my mind.

    It is adorable and I’d put that on the first page of my phone home screen, no questions asked.

    Well done.

      Nice plot twist!

      This is all open source so let talent do talent and let community decide.

      Good “propaganda” is a must tho in digital economy and community sourced and voted product is the way to go IMHO

        Lol this is exactly why I held my tongue for the first few of these posts. My first reaction was a pretty strong NO but I thought, let’s let this evolve organically and see what happens. Boy was my initial reaction wrong.

        Really love this little guy!

    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.
