    This sounds like a fantastic solution for anyone needing a quick, professional-looking logo! Struggling with branding, especially for MVPs, is a common pain point. LogoMVP (https://logoMVP.com) seems like a great way to generate a solid foundation without getting bogged down in design complexities.

    The ability to choose color scheme, typography, and icon all in one place is super convenient. I can definitely see the value for startups, side projects, or even brainstorming sessions.

    I'll definitely check it out and provide feedback! Love the idea of building tools to solve personal problems – that can lead to some really innovative solutions.

    It's a great concept. Something I would recommend is:

    - a checkbox to remove the TM at the end of the logo.

    - expanding the color and typography options. For quick prototyping, like the "Lorem Ipsum" of logos, this selection is probably fine. If you add more palletes / colors / icons, you can break the toolbox off into separate tabs.

    - Removing the "Product Hunt" badge from the toolbox to maximize the space of the content, and instead putting it in the footer

    - (Personal preference): Moving the options toolbox to the right of the screen instead of having it on the left, or giving the user the option to change the layout.

      Definitely, the product hunt will be removed once the day ends.

      Yes, I think the main challenge will be fixing the UI once we have more options like choosing the icon library, etc.

      Thanks a lot.

    I can't even tap the buttons to unhide the page. iOS 14

      Sorry about that. I will check this issue. You can tap anywhere outside the banner, and it will close.

      Maybe I can show the banner only if you download or copy the logo.

      Thanks for the comment.

    This is delightful!

    The only issue I've ever had with these types of tools is they usually charge a monthly subscription. That probably makes sense for some kind of agency, but as an individual I don't need a subscription to a logo service. I just need a simple logo now, one-time.

      You could also buy a ready-made logo from a marketplace like https://bootstraplogos.com.

      Don't get me wrong, quick logo generators like this serve a purpose too, so not knocking OP's tool. But sometimes, even a small budget can get you a pretty pro looking logo.

      I'm a designer, but also an indie hacker, so I understand the struggle of just needing something simple to start.

    This is neat. Well done.

    I'm curious how well the "buy me a coffee" model works with projects like this.

    It sure would be nice if there was a workable middle ground between selling subscriptions (or one time payments) and just giving everything away.

    • lentesdev 84 days ago
      That's a fantastic question. This project is an experiment for myself to ship something without overthinking and also start creating value.

      In fact, I got my first donation, but I will certainly experiment with other revenue streams.

      Currently, I don't feel that the tool is worth any payment, but maybe I will add more advanced features like mockups, domains, etc., to introduce a single payment plan.

      But yeah, overall I've found that the "buy me a coffee" approach doesn't generate too much in this field unless you're a big open source project.

    Love this one, curious to know, how do you determine the placement of each color in the palette on the icon image? Like, how do you know a lighter color should go on the icon and darker on the background etc.

    Its simple and pretty easy to use, looks promising. Would be great to have a bigger library. Wondering if canva can be used for this?
    • lentesdev 84 days ago
      In the future, I may add more icon libraries and types. I guess I need to balance the number of options to avoid making the design more complicated.

      My main goal was to generate an SVG so you can use it everywhere without being pixelated.

    Looks great, it's free, and the shuffle button does wonders to inspire. Bookmarked and will use it for sure.
  • throwawayaghas1 84 days ago
    Would be great to have a color palette shuffle mode that keeps the name and logo the same. Given you may know your name and what icon fits your name. Also you misspelled palette on the website.
    • lentesdev 84 days ago
      That's an awesome point. I have changed the button to just change the colors, which makes more sense, and I have also fixed the typo. Thanks!
