Here's a second proposal with an interlocking cog. I'm looking for a way to use hubs but we don't have a lot of space. >>>> >>>> <WPD-API-icon-draft2.png> >>>> >>>> Seb >>>> >>>> >>>> Le 4 janv. 2013 à 01:43, Scott Rowe <scottrowe@google.com> a écrit : >>>> >>>>> Hi Seb, >>>>> >>>>> I think this icon is headed the right direction. Maybe all it needs is another interlocking cog, or maybe two - all of different sizes. The teeth could be smaller. Also, the cogs could have hubs. >>>>> >>>>> I do think this is better than the old puzzle piece icon so heavily favored everywhere, and that was the only other symbol I could think of for an API. >>>>> >>>>> Thanks for doing this!!! >>>>> >>>>> +Scott >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> On Thu, Jan 3, 2013 at 3:07 AM, Sébastien Desbenoit <Seb@desbenoit.net> wrote: >>>>> Hi Scott, hi All, >>>>> >>>>> I wish for you and your close ones a very happy new year! >>>>> >>>>> Here's a first draft for an API icon. I'm not very happy with the concept lying under the icon but we need a start. If you have some idea of how we can conceptualize the idea of API in a shape, I'll be happy to hear. >>>>> >>>>> Have a nice day, >>>>> >>>>> Seb Desbenoit >>>>> >>>>> <WPD-API-icon-draft1.png> >>>>> >>>>> -- >>>>> Sébastien Desbenoit >>>>> twitter : @desbenoit >>>>> site : http://desbenoit.net >>>>> blog : http://internetetmoi.fr >>>>> mobile : +33 (0)6 98 54 92 93 >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>> >>>> -- >>>> Sébastien Desbenoit >>>> twitter : @desbenoit >>>> site : http://desbenoit.net >>>> blog : http://internetetmoi.fr >>>> mobile : +33 (0)6 98 54 92 93 >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>> >>> >> >> -- >> Sébastien Desbenoit >> twitter : @desbenoit >> site : http://desbenoit.net >> blog : http://internetetmoi.fr >> mobile : +33 (0)6 98 54 92 93 >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> > -- Sébastien Desbenoit twitter : @desbenoit site : http://desbenoit.net blog : http://internetetmoi.fr mobile : +33 (0)6 98 54 92 93
