Conversation
Alexa ranking: ~61k Take note there is a similar site called Vox that tackles on news/opinions and it seems to be unrelated with each other based on my quick search here. |
Yes, they are completely unrelated. They are written differently though (VOX and Vox). Shall I add some kind of suffix? But there is no official suffix (like TV or DE). |
Personally, I would go with the suffix 'TV' (making it 'VOX TV'). I'll wait for the other @simple-icons/maintainers to see their take on this. |
I think we should go ahead and add this one as just "VOX". We're a fair few icons deep on this project without (as far as I can see) having had any clashes in brand names. If and when the time comes that such a clash does arise, we can address it then. Of course, Sod's Law dictates that, now that I've said that, someone's going to immediately request a vox.com icon! |
I don't think it is unlikely the vox.com icon will be requested and ideally we deal with name clashes before that happens, as it will likely result in backwards compatibility issues 😞 That said, I'm really not sure how we would do that. I opened #2260 to discuss this further. In the meanwhile I will mark this with "Awaiting replay" and I don't think we should merge this in until we found a suitable solution. |
Coming back to this one again, I don't think that #2260 should block us merging it as I think whatever we do do avoid name clashes should be done on a "first come, first served" basis, as best we can. For example, should the other Vox ever be added, we could quite easily solve the problem in this case by calling that one "Vox.com". Thoughts, @simple-icons/maintainers? |
As there have been no objections, I'm going to invoke the "first-come, first-served" rule here and finally get around to reviewing this one! 😆 Taking the source SVG as-is, there are quite a few differences between your version (in green below) and it, @vigonotion - could you look into those, please? Also, since this PR was opened, we have changed our requirements for source URLs from Wikpedia & Wikimedia; they should now link to the file's page rather than the brands so could you update the URL in your JSON to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:VOX_Logo_2013.svg? |
I used the 1993 logo, because it was already (almost) monochrome. But if desired, I redo the icon based on the current logo |
Yeah, I thinkwe should go with the latest version. Warning, though: That SVG is a mess of multiple paths and there is an Before you go to the effort, though, you could try doing a visual comparison between your version and the logo from their website as, just by eyeballing it, the circle does appear to be slightly smaller there than in the latest version on Wikimedia. Alternatively, this version can be found in the HTML of their site: https://www.vox.de/safari-pinned-tab.svg It's very poorly Potraced but it might be easier to clean it up than to work with the Wikimedia file. |
Are you still working on this one, @vigonotion? |
Didn't have the time yet, gonna look at this again this weekend as this is probably not a big change |
Sorry it took me so long, but here it is. I used the 2013 logo svg and drew a circle above that red ball (which was an image in the original svg). I eyeballed it, as the circle wasn't even a round circle, but I think this really is good enough. |
The SVG looks good now, unfortunately the size of the logo is just slightly off (possibly due to optimization). Could you look into this and fix that? |
Just chipping in with a path that is passing the linter.

Man, I can't believe this one's still going, over a year later 😆 @adamrusted, in the interests of getting this off our plate (and finally giving @vigonotion some peace!), I don't think anyone would object to you pushing your version directly to the branch and we'll take it from there. |
@PeterShaggyNoble sorted - if another @simple-icons/maintainers could take a look at this, we may be able to finally get it merged! |
Thaaaank you @adamrusted, that thing was a journey 😄 |
@adamrusted I can see a slight difference between your version (red) and the source (black). Probably due to optimizing it and the circle only having two points. On the other hand, the V and X have A LOT of points, that probably aren't really needed. Would be worth it simplifying it a bit in my opinion. I've created a simplified path (with a precision of 3) that should still match perfectly the source, while it only has 1/4 of file size.
Could you review it and if it matches the source push it and merge it? 😊 |

Spot on @fbernhart!
Thanks @vigonotion for the work on the original PR, hopefully now you can rest easy at night! 😆
EDIT: would help if I pushed the new SVG before trying to merge it, wouldn't it?
