Update favicon

[thekaveman]

@vykster would like a favicon inspired by the new homepage icons (with colors):

As Vyki says:

Colors with a transparent background

Thoughts on any of these @thekaveman ? Happy to iterate

[thekaveman]

Ooooo these are fun! I like 1, 6, and 8 the most -- not sure if you can squeeze all 3 highlight colors in one of those?

Maybe make the cross-hatch box purple in 8?

[segacy1]

Sounds good! Will also double-check how these look at the actual favicon size in the next round

@segacy1 7 and 8 (especially with the additional purple suggestion above) look good.

[thekaveman]

@segacy1 or maybe, at the risk of offending your design sensibilities, adding a small purple circle to the empty space on 8?

Vyki commented that 3/7/11 are closest to our actual "brand mark" i.e. the one that came out of the design process from Sublation a few years ago.

So I think we should probably stick to one of those but with the added pops of color over the straight black/white version.

[AnthonyRollins]

Out of those options, I like 3 the most. If possible, we should change the white to another color to work on both light/dark modes. For instance, I use light-mode and don't think white will show through. Unless @thekaveman, there is a way to switch the logo based on the user's light/dark-mode.

It has been many months!! I'm pulling in 3rd for us to use because:

1. It's one of the options Vyki mentioned
2. I think at such a small size, the white rectangle will look better with a fill as it is here vs. an outline as it is in 7

That said, they're all options are saved in Figma if you'd like to try!

@AnthonyRollins because there is a black fill included, it shouldn't matter if you're in light or dark mode!
