MyBrandNewLogo – A 3-step Logo Generator • Hacker News Board

I was hoping https://mybrandnewlogo.com/how-it-works was a little more in depth of how it actually works but I suppose if they gave away their secret they wouldn't make any money :)

I'm guessing they have a stock library of vector art somewhere. I'd love to know what library / libraries they have used.

Edit / added:

On a different topic. I routinely by logos from Fiverr for about slightly more than these (typically $80 - $100) and generally speaking the one's from fiver weren't using any stock art.

That made some logos Im very interested in (and we happen to be looking for a new logo). Just wondering if the icons are internally created or from another collection?

Edit: Looks like they're not unique icons, damn.

Edit 2: Since they're using nounproject, I hope they're properly licensing the works and not just assuming they're creative commons so it's free. I'm not seeing any credits given on their site or anything about the logo including the royalty free license.

I had a difficult time with the "keywords" portion - I'm assuming they're tying keywords to an icon library.

It'd probably be more useful to have a list of words to select from, rather than guessing which ones will be useable by their algorithm.

The way that a lot of these logo generators work is actually using Noun Project[0], which keeps very good tags for vector icons.

Do you have anyone on fivver you'd recommend in particular? I've had pretty bad luck with designers just reusing logos but charging full rate.

This is very well done, both in the results I got from using it and the UI experience while using it.

That's an incredible resource. Thanks so much for posting. I'm wondering how the licenses apply if I modify an icon, or merge two together. Happy to attribute both authors but would that even be allowed?

Edit: it is.

> Yes, you can modify and build upon the symbol as long as you follow proper attribution requirements. You can use the icon for free as long as you attribute, or pay via a NounPro subscription
