I would like to put a recognizable logo for gopress, something simple that captures the essence of blogging and the wordplay.

Let's try to get GPT to give us a hand:

"We need branding for a blogging system called "gopress". It paraphrases to wordpress (the biggest blogging platform). My initial idea is a key cap from a keyboard with a letter G on it, it represents both the action of pressing buttons to create articles and the press as a printed media. Also if you can, generate a prompt for dall-e"

And GPT's response below:

That's a great initial concept for the "GoPress" brand! Building on your idea, here's how we could potentially refine and detail it:

  1. Logo: A single keyboard key cap with a stylized "G" on it. The "G" could be designed to also subtly incorporate elements of a pen or a typewriter to further signify the writing aspect. To represent the digital, modern aspect of blogging, you could include circuit lines or binary code design elements within or around the "G".
  2. Color Palette: A combination of neutral tech colors like sleek grays or silver along with vibrant pops of color. This could include a bold green (representing the 'Go' in GoPress) or a vibrant blue (often associated with information and technology).
  3. Typography: The word "GoPress" could be written in a modern, sans-serif font that's clear and readable. The "G" and "P" could be capitalized to emphasize the brand name.
  4. Tagline: To drive the message home, a tagline like "Press to Express", "Your Thoughts, One Press Away" or "Empowering Voices, One Key at a Time" could be used.

Now, for the DALL-E prompt, you might want something that aligns with the branding of GoPress. Here's a suggestion: "A keyboard key cap with a stylized 'G' on it that is subtly incorporating elements of a pen or typewriter. The 'G' is vibrant green and surrounded by circuit lines or binary code design elements."

Please note that the actual results from DALL-E might be different because as of my last training cut-off in September 2021, DALL-E is not directly integrated with the model and the capabilities of the model have likely evolved since then.

When using the prompt suggested by GPT we get images in DALL-E that are hardly usable for the favicon:

Images generated by DALL-e from GPT's prompt

Iterating a bit more, some good images emerge that can be used as a post header:

Prompt:
Prompt: "a favicon key from a mechanical keyboard with letter G on it, bright colors"
Prompt:
Prompt: "a favicon key from a mechanical keyboard with letter G on it"

It seems nothing usable as a favicon that is recognizable when drastically reducing its resolution.

I'm still searching for a logo. Any ideas?
