so I was thinking about that hammock icon...

lread19:11:58

does that come across? hard to make itty bitty things look good!

borkdude19:11:52

is that a moon in the sky?

lread19:11:06

a parenthesis moon, yes

borkdude19:11:10

I think without the moon it would be clearer, since it doesn't really convey the meaning of a hammock?

sogaiu19:11:16

i think i understood it partly because i had expectations

lread19:11:28

could you see hammock and person?

borkdude19:11:45

well, the moon drew my attention, so it took me a while

lread19:11:02

looks nice bigger, eh?

sogaiu19:11:17

ahhhh, the multi-color part gets lost when shrunk

lread19:11:23

alas, yes

sogaiu19:11:00

possibly one drawback to the moon is that it sometimes suggests sleeping

lread19:11:27

the moon was kind of conveying sleeping on it... and filling an empty space.

sogaiu19:11:51

lol, i see -- i just remembered what rh said about pretending to be sleeping 🙂

sogaiu19:11:00

but you're right, part of the process may occur while sleeping

borkdude19:11:01

hammock isn't necessarily for sleeping, just relaxing

lread19:11:20

I think the moon has been down-voted 😄

sogaiu19:11:30

if it were to stay, i'd like it yellow 🙂

borkdude19:11:54

I agree, yellow is clearer

sogaiu19:11:57

hammock made small seems quite challenging

borkdude19:11:22

you can also make it a yellow ball, which can be seen as a moon or sun

sogaiu19:11:32

ooo, sneaky

sogaiu19:11:52

i like the angle of suggesting being outside

borkdude19:11:11

maybe a cloud which also suggest thinking about it?

sogaiu19:11:31

i like that ambiguity

lread19:11:57

I think hammock without moon works better too

sogaiu19:11:00

(does that encourage the use of a dark theme for one's slack ui?)

lread19:11:34

the little person is blue to show in both dark and light themes.

sogaiu19:11:09

use of blue and green seems appropriate 🙂

sogaiu19:11:05

the dark theme remark was intended to be linked to the idea of the cloud -- wasn't sure how well it would show up

lread19:11:05

I think I'm learning to keep things to minimum for icons. I'll just leave it as hammock and person for now. hammock

sogaiu19:11:13

sounds good to me

borkdude19:11:13

works for me!

sogaiu19:11:27

the thing i learned watching someone make icons over some years was -- compose existing simple pieces

lread19:11:00

how fantastic the hammock looks will be left a secret. simple_smile

lread19:11:26

yeah that's a good thing to remember @UG1C3AD5Z, thanks.
