@renaultJB I would like the toolbox to have a logo as well. I think the logo should play with the STAPLE meaning and convey the idea of creating reference systems at the same time, so I quickly draw this one in Inkscape (absolutely preliminary):

Let me know what you think about it! Personally I am not very happy with the S, I think this needs some more brainstorming

Nice, I like the general idea. It's already nice as is 👍

For the first S, maybe two staple in mirror and shifted can make a S. General idea:

@renaultJB harder than it sounds to modify it as you suggest unfortunately, because of the thickness of the lines...
@mdjaere can I ask you a critical opinion here? I trust your creative input and you can be blunt!

  • Very nice Luca! It has a cool 80s postmodern + some art deco vibe to it, and It looks FUN! It has quite a lot going on. You mention the S, did you try a version with it up straight as well?
  • As part of a brainstorm I've made some examples where I stripped it down. Without the colours I realise it's perhaps a bit boring (the third one might be my favourite of these).

@modenaxe It helps to have a lot of options to choose from, so if you have more versions put them up here as well

Another variation to match the ortho crosses from the rest of the graphics

I'm throwing in a few more in the mix, two with femur outlines.

I like the first one, less those with the bone. I have had an idea for a different concept, I will share it here as soon as I have time to work on it

@renaultJB @mdjaere I think I will keep the last attempt as logo. Do you like it?

@renaultJB actually I was referring to the simple S. Simple and immediate, in my opinion.

Ah, ok. Yes that is a good idea. The simplicity is a good thing.
