Based on a discussion that originally began in the thread, Slicer module panel icon in dark mode , I wanted to show variations of a proposed new Slicer logo that I mocked up. My requirements: Must be similar in design to current logo and still recognizable as “3D Slicer”. This includes shapes and …

I like the second one, even if they are not the original colors of the labels. Love the contrast. I like the labels not being in the center of the sphere.

I personally like the purple variations, because it includes one staple of Slicer, which identifies its usage in papers even without a citation: the famous blue-ish gradient in the 3D view!

It looks good with both light and dark style: [image] [image]

Having a different favicon for Slicer wiki, readthedocs, and discourse is important for me. Usually I open up all the open questions on discourse and open new tabs for looking up links on Slicer wiki to answer. Initially the favicons were the same and I had a hard time navigating all these tabs. Now…

So are we set with the logo as shown in Proposed new Slicer logo - #66 by lassoan or should we keep iterating? poll [image]
