This Issue is to track all icons that start with the letter A. We encourage contributors to let us know of any icons we've missed as part of this scope in the comments below this issue. They will be added to the list below by the maintainers.

Checking Icons

For each icon in our collection, the following steps need to be carried out. Once you identify an icon that needs updating, please comment below this issue with details and we'll add it to the table below.

  1. Does the brand still exist?
  2. Is it still within our scope?
  3. Have they rebranded?
  4. If they haven't, does our icon line up exactly with the source?
  5. Even if it does, are there any improvements that can be made to our existing icon (e.g., reducing precision, or removing excess points)?
  6. Is our hex colour correct?
  7. Are our source & guidelines URLs still valid?
  8. Does the guidelines URL actually include brand guidelines?
  9. Are we conforming to all available branding or trademark guidelines?
  10. Are we using the correct license?
  11. Are there any branding or trademark guidelines, or a license available that should be added?

Looking through the AWS website, they refer to themselves much more frequently as "AWS" than they do "Amazon Web Services'. So, while I'd agree that we need to rename our icon, I would suggest that "AWS" be the title and "Amazon Web Services" the alias.

  • With a Similarweb rank of almost 2.5m, Actigraph is outside our scope and should be removed.
  • ActivityPub's rank has absolutely tanked since being added and is now in excess of 3.5m so should also be considered for removal.
  • Apostrophe is now also firmly outside our scope and should be removed.

A note on Aiqfome: I can't access their website - I'm assuming thanks to geoblocking - so there may be better branding material available there than the SVG in one of their GH repos I've linked to above.

@adamrusted, that's not so much a potential rebrand for ASKfm as it is the fact their branding has always been all over the place. We should, though, update our icon to either the icon they use for their social media links in the footer - there's an SVG on their advertising page that could be used as a starting point - or the full wordmark, which they make available on their press page. My vote goes to the former.

Just a note about Airbrake.io, I think it should be renamed to Airbrake only

Might be a good objective to close the letter A before the next major release 😅, what do you think?
