Ask HN: Do you need a free logo for your business?

Hi guys! I'm currently trying to build a solid logofolio, so I'm willing to design logos for anyone who needs them. It gives me a chance to build my portfolio and test out my skills :) I'm offering my logo services for free, but you may decide to throw some money at me if you really like my work ;) And if you don't like my logo, you can simply not use it. Also, if you have a website, you may get choose to get a backlink when I upload the logo on my portfolio :D Feel free to request a logo as a comment here or from my website (https://creatiffish.com/contact/)

Yes, would be interested. Can't guarantee the webapp will be around in 6 months though!

If you have a US bank account, I would be willing to pay depending on outcome.

I'd feel bad requesting a free logo for a business that makes money. So maybe for a free project.

https://random-character-generator.com/

It generates random characters to inspire writers.

I'd like something that looks nice as an app icon, i.e. square dimensions and looks good on small details. The current logo is just a stock image I bought somewhere.

Hi!

My website helps dental students and professionals. I make hand written notes and try my best to simplify complex concepts.

My website is https://bytesizedentistry.com

It would be nice if you can create a logo for it!

Thanks!

I have also messaged you on your website contact form.

I have no business, although I have some software projects I write and I don't know if a logo might or might not be suitable/needed/wanted.

I'm willing to create software logos as well :)

OK. Here is the list of some the software I write; see if you may be interested in any of these programs, possibly. (All of them free open source; a Fossil repository is also available for each one, in case you want to look)

- Bystand: A simple NNTP client with a command-line interface and using SQLite to store the articles.

- Farbfeld Utilities: A set of filter programs to make and alter pictures (including some effects that I have not seen in other programs, such as the ability to make the tensor product of two pictures), and to encode and decode various formats.

- Free Hero Mesh: A puzzle game engine, for turn-based grid-based games, like Everett Kaser's Hero Hearts.

- TeXnicard: A program to make a database of and to render cards for card games such as Magic: the Gathering and others. It is programmed with a combination of PostScript and SQL, and is itself written in C and also supports TeX fonts and TeX typesetting. If you have used Magic Set Editor, this is a similar idea although there are many things I don't like about MSE, so I made a better one (well, better in my opinion).

Maybe you are not interested in any of these programs, which is OK, but if you are interested in one then you can try to make a logo, make further inquiries, look in the Fossil repositories, or whatever else you might want. However, please note that I am unable to pay (as I have no way to do this; sorry).

These programs are not necessarily complete, although the first two are complete enough to use for their purposes (even if some features are missing); the other two are in progress, but some work has already been done.

I also don't know if a logo is needed or wanted, or what the logo would possibly resemble, because I am not a artist, but maybe you or someone else knows, even though I don't know.

Oh, I am very interested! I believe every software should have a logo. I'm willing to create logos for one or two of these. Can you please provide links to the projects? I'm having trouble finding them.

Hi. I've created a few logos. How do I show them to you? I can't find a contact form or email on your website.
