Definitions[edit]

The Whonix Unified Design logos are subdivided into:

  • Text logo: A textform version of the logo which could be used in a text paragraph. Can be identical with Landscape logo if this is wide
  • Icon logo: A simplified version of the logo for cases where the logo needs to be very small. If the logo is already very simple this might be identical to Logo

Use cases where Whonix logos will be typically used are:

  • Profile image: On various platforms there will usually be profile images which are used to identify the user. In most cases a square image will which be displayed as a square or a circle
  • Banner image: On platforms there will mostly be the option to decorate your profile with a banner image. This image is often wide with a 3:1 ratio or more
  • Post image: To create posts about whonix there will be an image needed to represent whonix as an OS as a whole. These images of often around a 16:9 ratio
  • Favicon: To identify your page in a Browser there are very small images called favicons displayed in the browser tab before the text. Those images are squared, very small, eg 64x64px and can have transparency
