      @Josele13 i do like the principle of the design as @Aury88 proposed it with 3 persons, reaching the hands.
      I personally have less a problem with the basic design than with the coloring and the additional ring that in combination immediately reminded me of runes. And living in a region where people tend do abuse runes for unfriendly political codes, I rather prefer not to have a badge which makes me look like one of them.
      Therefore I would prefer a badge which looks first less like a rune and secondly underlines the connection to the original design of Ubuntu.
      I tried despite missing mastery in GIMP to illustrate my point by coloring the sketch of @hummlbach changing it only in two regards: linking the heads with the body and adding a colored circle. By linking the heads with the body the proposed rigid structure of lines and circles is broken and by adding a colored circle which intersects with the heads in their center a quote of the logo of ubuntu is introduced...trefoil-of-friends_c.jpg

        @Vartojas I like your proposal. We can call it "The friendly jacuzzi logo" 😄

          @Josele13 the color was only a choice during the Yunit Project (the orange is from the Ubuntu color palette associated to the community) but is not the point of my suggestion here.
          Also changing color in Inkscape is a mater of few seconds.
          As a yumi badge I would have kept it in the current style as a bright white "symbol" on the dark-gray background.
          The choice of putting inside the circle instead of outside was merely to give more space to the arms part and because I feel it more phisiologicaly-correct 😛 LogoCore.png

              The last one looks best imo.

              Everyone believes that their actions are better than the alternatives.

                But imho it could lead to confusion have a symbol on the yumi badge different from the one displayed in the project logo 🤔

                  @Aury88 As Marius said in the original post and I quote
                  "One point i want to add, is that we might want to remove the "Ubuntu logo" since for this exact reason we are limited." It could all change.

                      @Aury88 That's why I emphasized could.
                      The Ubuntu badge might just disappear which would solve any issue with Yumi. Or Yumi might have a Yumi/Ubports specific one which would also solve any issue using them as we wish. I Personally quite like that idea.
                      Maybe the less that looks like the Ubuntu (the badge) one the better. That would stop any other associated issues maybe.
                      After that..........

                        I really like the bottom logo on this one a lot, far superior to the others in my opinion.

                          so if we are talking about a symbol that could substitute the Canonical's circle of friends imho we should also consider how it look in other UBports logos/symbols:
                          for examble:
                          Test Logo.png
                          also this is the only one among my suggestions that fit in the project name

                            I think a new badge is a very good idea: I've privately maintained that Yumi was the lovechild of Wall-E's pet, Hal, and his girlfriend, EVE.

                              @Aury88 these are exactly what i was thinking of if a "total rebrand" came about. good work!

                                @Aury88 i think, I do like the last best and I liked it even a bit more, were the 'o' in the color of the logo, not the letters.

                                  The last one with the three linked circles reminds me of the borromean rings:

                                    @hummlbach I was thinking instead that among all of them the one with the three linked semi-circle is the least recalling a runic geometry (also because the three semi-circle are not properly linked). the others I immediately associate them with a Triquetra

                                      @Aury88 great work - I like the first and the last one best
                                      idea: what about completing the circles in the first logo (gray and faded) on the phone display ...

                                          If the concern is a move away from Ubuntu branding, has anyone checked how broadly Ubuntu has trademarked human silhouettes seen from above with linked arms? A logo trademark search site I've used in the past didn't turn up any trademarked logos for Ubuntu, which I think says more about that search engine than it does about the state of IP protection of Ubuntu's logos. Even Ubuntu's website doesn't go into the specifics of what might have been trademarked in terms of what they call their "circle of friends" logo.
