Yeah that's getting pretty close now. Well done!. If it's an SVG it could be converted to a SmallBASIC program.

I do like green and blue, my favorites when both are present. The AI report has given me some good ideas, I believe.
How to jam all that into a simple scaleable image, what a challenge  :o


The logos which you designed are quite interesting.

here cleaned-up versions of the logo as svg. Converting them to png with different pixel-dimensions is easy with Inkscape. If you like, I can also combine the logo with "SmallBASIC" i.e. for the website.

(because I'm not allowed to upload svg-files, I zipped them)

The logos are nice.

1. Convincing logo

2. Pretty user manual

3. Cool official website

Perhaps a whole new image for SmalBASIC will be born after 1,2 and 3 are finished.

The SVG images work perfectly with android studio's image wizard.

I think the top of the cube needs something.... perhaps a subtle indentation with some shading, or a gradient?

I tried some ideas. Most thinks I tried just don't look good. It happened quite easy, that the details become to small. Than down-scaling will not work anymore. I attached a svg file with some gradients and stripe patterns on the top of the cube.

I played a little bit with colors. Would be other colors instead of blue more suitable?

I think you're on the right track. Starting to look really good now.

Orange, green, purple or brown.

I have one more idea. A cool website doesn't require a complex design.

The website of Yabasic is an example. Not too complicated, not too colourful, but nice.

What about our existing web site: https://smallbasic.github.io/
Not cool enough?

I hope you put keywords into categories like QB64 (keyword reference by usage). Currently you mixed everything into a long alphabetically sorted list that looks like a mess I can't stand. I admit I have only used the most common BASIC features. I have never utilized the full strength of SB yet.

@bprlhe

Are you aware of this page at the SmallBASIC site:
https://smallbasic.github.io/pages/reference_help.html

Keywords are divided under categories. eg there is Arc keyword under graphics (that I'm not sure I was aware of :)

Look for the More... link just above that load of Keywords under Language Reference.

The current official website of SmallBASIC is nice, too.

Yabasic's website may make new visitors feel friendly and comfortable. I like its design because:
