It would be great to have logo, to be able to print tshirts and do other things with it.
This page should collect proposals, until we find a good one. Where good means: is a good logo (can be resized, works in one color, etc - search the web for "good logo design" and read a few of the many results) and conveys the idea of the project (eg. should visualize/represent: "one source, several builds, several identical results", but other ideas/messages are certainly possible…).
Also, we actually need to two Logos: one for Reproducible Builds and one for Debian Reproducible Builds, which should probably be the logo plus the swirl

Using of a circle to represent a build that is reproduced:

- a circle divided into 3N sectors (= pie chart), where each N consecutive sectors are the same color.
- 1 color = 1 build
- N sectors the same color = N builds the same output

A double helix.
Rationale: each strand of the double helix can be used to completely reproduce the other. Also, DNA is somewhat analogous to machine code.
See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:DNA_icon.svg (and the category) for a schema of a double helix. (In DNA, the yellow and green rods come in four kinds each, and each kind of green is always paired with the same kind of yellow.)
#11
"drawing hands" -- nerdy M.C. Escher reference, reproducible builds build each other. I don't know how to make it into a proper logo, though.
Suggestion from dkg, hopefully more graphically-inclined people can make it better.
TODO
- link more existing proposals here
actually turn these ideas into actual logos, eg they should work without the text "reproducible builds"
comments
lamby: re: your logos: as said, #7 reminds me too much of the logo of https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freiheitliche_Deutsche_Arbeiterpartei and then i dislike for #7+#8 that they both dont really work without the words reproducible builds". and then they both (to me) symbolize endlessly running in circles, and not many builds results in one result * h01ger likes the _ideas_ of #1, #10 and #11 but i dont consider them ready/suitable as logos _yet_ * h01ger dislikes #2, #4, #5 + #6 - i dont recognize anything in them
