I love it! The 🥚 in the "o" is a great touch
Yes, this is cool.
I like this one. That font for the other letters (o-r) feels a bit cartoony.

It is an atypical and not "mainstream" design, but for this reason it is really interesting and recognizable, it distances itself from all the existent, like Nostr. I like it!
Maybe I prefer the not-boxed version.
I think t can be longer and made an ostrich head
The egg inside the “o” really puts it over the top, I had to snicker when I noticed it.
The idea of making the O an egg is really cool though🥚
I love it! The ostrich making the N and the egg making the O make it incredibly fun!
love it!
is that... the final edit...?
Nice! And I tink you are totally right, having a logo will definitely help spreading it!
Ich finds gut, so lange nichts besseres kommt benutze ich das 🙂

Quella "n" è davvero una bomba!
great work
Vielen Dank!!!
It‘s crucial to have one! I like this one.
Thanks @Evelin!
This is the logo I use on printed material

Anche l'uovo in "o"!
Yes it can be a long legged n .
It can even represent ostrich legs!
😍😍😍
Very cool

Why this fixation on ostriches? They’re shit. The only possible reason is ‘they’re a bird, you know like Twitter!’ but Nostr is so much more than Twitter, or will be. Needs its own identity.
I mean, I really like the actual logo I just don’t like this weird ostrich thing that’s now the law. I prefer something more like

as I've heard it the ostrich was used because it is the biggest bird. and also because it has -ostr in the name.
I agree that nostr will be bigger and more things than the other little blue bird app will ever be but there's a charm in having a collective history.
I don't like it. it's cartoony and doesn't seem to take itself seriously.
I mean, we don't really take ourselves seriously *gestures towards all the memes* but there is gravity in what we're trying to grow here.
Yeah, I don’t hate the concept of “ostrich head in a lowercase n” but it does come across a bit cartoonish as-is.
Thank you!
I like this one even less. the ostrich in the n by Marco is a way better logo in every way. more creative, more recognizable, more artistry.
I agree that Marco's version is more creative and memorable. Though whether I like it or not makes no difference, for the sake of the discussion I will say that I can be won over to it but it primarily comes down to execution. I like it in concept, though this specific execution reads more as a logo for a children's brand. I think if it were refined a touch more, it would be a strong contendor.
My two sats as a graphic designer.
@walker, looks like we need a little history lesson here 😂
Except for the fact that it is an ostrich.
Yes you are definitely correct. I also would like to draw from attention to the language around the UX of nostr clients. I want to use new verbiage then the plain old "Like, Repost, dislike" ext. It's really important to create vernacular around these actions that express the decentralization, censorship resistance, and other advantages of this network. "Zapping" is a great example of this because it's a completely noval action online. The old words of other social media should be revamped rebranded to better express our ethos.
the nostr aristocracy cant kill the ostrich.
To be honest, I don't like the ostrich theme.
Yeah, I know the history, I’ve been here for almost a year. I still think ostriches are shit and awful to look at.
Bruh, you’re taking this too seriously😂
Show me on the doll where the Nostrich hurt you…
Where do I point to my deep sense of disappointment and boredom?
Autism is a curse it’s true. And I don’t like ostriches, because no one does until now 🤣
Fun idea mate… but TCP/IP or SMTP don’t have logos and I struggle to think why Nostr should have one long term without creating some weird exclusive club. I suppose if the community generally gets behind it and it helps in some way then I could get behind it but we shouldn’t make any “official” logo or even pretend to. Generally (freely) accepted guidelines like Purple + Ostriches are fun and harmless but we don’t need an official flag or whatever
I'm on mobile so it's hard to check, but if i remember correctly there's a banner style logo in here...
I still like these the best:
