I often need to find logos and was not impressed by the existing logo search engines, so, in classic bikeshed mode, I built my own. Because it makes total sense to try to compete with Google. And Wikipedia. And countless others (some of which I list on the alternatives page).
Why is mine better?
- just logos
- instant results
- only SVGs
- hyperlinked directly to the source
- no right-click hijacking (or other dark patterns)
- totally awesome domain name
It is open source (AGPLv3), so you can see the tools I use and how it works (and criticize my code). The sources have their own licenses, so be sure to check there before using.
It is still a work in progress and there are some glitches (I mean, who would use a percent sign in a file name? And I'd love to try to fix the Wikipedia redirected images if I could only find the source...), but I want to see if people find it useful.
So let me know what you think! And I'm always looking for more sources!
