This font very decidedly evokes the United States Navy. It looks like the name on the side of an aircraft carrier.

(sorry, I’m a bad person)

You have to be very careful with block fonts. Most evoke either collegiate sports or the military.

Here’s my input for colours

[https://color.adobe.com/UAVCAN-color-theme-12106273/](https://color.adobe.com/UAVCAN-color-theme-12106273/)

a logo using the primary blue colour from that theme:

I grow weary of this thread. Save us @Zarkopafilis!

Can’t win, can we? I suggest we just go with Comic Sans.

I swear I will hire a professional designer unless we agree on something very soon. _Yes, this is a threat._

Thank you all for voting.

I hereby benevolently dictate that this is our new logo:

![logo](https://forum.opencyphal.org/uploads/default/original/1X/e32e8e4773294c34c000f940ae89459d1a4a9fae.svg)

And favicon:

![favicon](https://forum.opencyphal.org/uploads/default/original/1X/6bae02e56feef78fc81435f11a6ad437cc5be90a.svg)

The color `#1700b3` is chosen from the color palette suggested by Scott above. For future reference, the other colors from that palette are: `#0003ee`, `#00dac6`, `#007e87`, and `#b00036`. If we are unhappy with the choice of color, we can still change that.

Disregard, I see they are in SVG format.
