I think the name is appropriate. These looked so good that I just did a rather sensuous sigh when I saw them.

gilbarbara5• 11 years ago

my thoughts exactly! :)

I just realized Polymer logo : http://svgporn.com/polymer.svg reminds me of Visual Studio for some reason - I needed to hover over it to see it's not some VS version.

personjerry• 11 years ago

I think the name cuts your potential users. Some people would rather not risk nsfw and thus be wary if sent such a link.

talles2• 11 years ago

Ya, "SVG Porn" doesn't hint at all that porn is an innuendo.

TazeTSchnitzel4• 11 years ago

Scalable vector erotica might be nice, but that's a different audience.

dav432• 11 years ago

unfortunately it automatically gets filtered by corporate firewalls.

pacaro• 11 years ago

Yeah, I had similar thoughts

svgcandy.com is available, which would convey much of the same idea

ObviousScience• 11 years ago

I didn't click on the link before reading the comments... or even after, now that I'm here.

Turns out that momentary pause is a killer.

TazeTSchnitzel4• 11 years ago

Some web filters will block any URL with "porn" in it.

mytochar• 11 years ago

It's part of the new verbage of the internet. Similar examples include: https://www.reddit.com/r/earthporn

pimlottc• 11 years ago

Just because it's a trend doesn't mean it's a good trend...

bbcbasic• 11 years ago

Or conversely, would be disappointed when clicking the link.

modarts• 11 years ago

The site's title font is awfully suggestive too

Prometheus1981• 11 years ago

Well, I know that I've been flagged by the IT system for going to a url with porn in the domain name :/

talles2• 11 years ago

These must be great to make stickers.

P.S.: I bet that most people never seem the JSON logo (http://svgporn.com/json.svg).

d2xdy2• 11 years ago

the Require.js logo has the hover title 'Redis'.

rpcope1• 11 years ago

Any possibility or getting Erlang and Scala logos?

TazeTSchnitzel4• 11 years ago

Where are these from? Recreated by hand? Sourced from official sites where possible?

Shouldn't there be attribution?

gilbarbara5• 11 years ago

I just added a copyright notice in the git repo.

TazeTSchnitzel4• 11 years ago

Git repo? Where?

Don't link me it here, it should be on the site.

The site owner should seriously consider running these SVG images through "scour" because each image is roughly 2X the size it should be.

Since SVG images are using XML, they can be minified just like JS, CSS, or HTML documents. Scour is a python script that does just that, but is SVG aware so it removes unused XML attributes, etc. Like any lossless optimization, the resulting file is a pixel perfect copy (can you still say that for vector images?)

Does this really help. Yes actually. I'm getting over 800 KB of savings across all the images applying scour.

No no no! Plz do not shrink them! Every developer knows how to shrink SVG. But it's really hard to get nice readable SVG back from shrinked ones. Better this way...

ygra• 11 years ago

There isn't much you can do to SVG to hurt readability, actually. Scour mostly removes things such as superfluous IDs, superfluous elements in <defs> that are not used, shortens IDs, rewrites CSS into XML attributes where appropriate, removes attributes that replicate defaults, rewrites paths with a bit less whitespace and most importantly reduces the accuracy of numeric constants. The latter is in many cases the greatest reduction. And you don't notice the difference between 8 digits after the decimal point or 5 (unless the local viewBox is seriously fucked up).

wyldfire• 11 years ago

`xmllint --format` is probably pretty good at recovering readability.

RobertKerans• 11 years ago

Depends, though - speaking from the perspective of a front-end developer/designer, it's almost universally preferable to have the non-minified versions of any image, and in this case, being able to easily work directly on the XML is a massive plus. Ideally they should be minified as part of a build step. A minified version for prototyping/rapid development would be handy though.

billyhoffman2• 11 years ago

I completely agree. Keep original unminified versions of all of your resources, and do the optimizations as part of a build process, so your production visitors are getting the smaller version

gilbarbara5• 11 years ago

Yeah, that's the point. I think it's best to have the proper unminified version and do as you please

jameshart• 11 years ago

Scour isn't 'lossless'. "Scour attempts to optimize the file, and as result, it will change the file's structure and (possibly) its semantics"

Scour can do things like change Ids, remove 'unused' data, and so on - but if you are planning on operating on the SVG using script, maybe you need those IDs or that data.

Any reason why Facebook’s logo is missing?

jader201• 11 years ago

These logos appear to relate specifically to development tools & libraries. Facebook is a tech product, but not typically considered a development tool/library. Similarly, you don't see Twitter, G+, Reddit, Instagram, etc. logos.

seesomesense• 11 years ago

SVG pornography ? Is that some kind of NSFW fetish ?

gilbarbara5• 11 years ago

It's a fetish, but it's safe for work!

dav432• 11 years ago

it will filtered by most corporate firewalls, like mine.

SunboX4• 11 years ago

Plz add a option to download them all as ZIP file. :) Btw. nice work!

jakobegger• 11 years ago

You can use the "Download ZIP" button on the Github repo: https://github.com/gilbarbara/logos/

SunboX4• 11 years ago

... or is it at github? That would serve my needs. ;)

SunboX4• 11 years ago

same minute. Thanks! :)

davidpelayo2• 11 years ago

It would be also nice to have title-tooltips to show the product name, in case you don't know one of them

davidpelayo2• 11 years ago

ok, it's already in place...! however in mobile browsers you can't see them

gilbarbara5• 11 years ago

11 new logos added tonight!
