#4 is my favorite

@minnieo

Big fan of the Kbinaut one! Kbinaut has been the term that clicked with me.

#1!!!

I voted in the poll. Don't forget to utilize it everyone!

Can we, uh, have the whole gang? You know how some mascots have a group of friends they hangout with?

I'm still cheering #4 though. #6 is now my second favourite.

You should run a poll on these. #1 for sure.

I like 1 and 6 the most!

I couldn't view your last post (apparently there's an issue with having with having thumbnails set to off making you not view the image even when the post is pulled up) so I have a few things I want to say:

1. Changing the outline to match the background instead of just black was brilliant and really livens up the icon
2. That subtle change from the original to #1 in this post with the perspective/curved bottom line added a lot of character to the bird
3. You have a spoopy profile pic but golly can you make a cute design!

#4 or #1

I like #1

#2, #3 and #5 looks elegant, fancy; #4 and #6 looks friendly; BUT #1 IS JUST TOO ADORABLE

#1, no astronaut

I absolutely love the collaboration you and @FixedFun have made with this design, as well as the callback to the unfortunately deleted kbeanaut thread.. I'd also like to second @birlocke_ and @Gamers_Mate's alternate idea of the Bird in a bin (ala bin chicken).

Personally my favorite is #6, followed by #1 and #4!

If these ever become an icon pack I'd love variations of all the birds as well as kbinaut mode!

My vote is for #1. I like the vibe of #4, but prefer the silhouette of #1. The border of the head seems to follow the plumage rather than slightly resembling a decapitation.

They're all great though. One thing I would love is if missing profile pictures (of kbin users) were replaced with variations of the bird - different shapes and background colours - until the user decides on a profile picture. It might have a bit too much personality for a generic profile picture, but it would be a cute indication of kbin users.

Also, for some reason I like the name Kevin for the bird. Sounds a lot like Kbin, and I have a sweet spot for animals with human names.

That Kbnaut design is amazing!

I have an umbrella cockatoo so these icons hit different. I like 1 because it's representative of being alert and engaged.

#1 still holds it for me. The overall shape scales the best from tiny icon to larger mascot.

#1 is my favourite

#1 and #4 are the only ones I cannot see some (distorted) form of the balding guy looking left,so those are definitely my favorites.

Very nice! My favorites are #1 and #4.

I'll pile on and vote for #1 as well.

#3 could be interesting because of its different shape, but overall I'd go for #6!

ooo lovely. 1, 4 and 6 are my favourites.
you should do a "kbinaut" style one but with the bird in a bin for the "kbinners" : D

#1 and #4 are the best. Think I slightly prefer #1 at the moment. #6 is close too if you want to keep a 3rd option in the running.

I looked at the small ones at the bottom to get a better idea of how they’d actually look as app icons on people’s phones. I think number 1 is best.

For several of the others, I can imagine someone mistaking the beak for an ear, and the gap in the feathers as a mouth. Number 5, in particular, could be mistaken for a puppy.

I vote for #6

My favorites are
#4 > #1

1 is pretty nice
