I am a tech enthusiast/early adopter and Marvel nerd, currently studying Design.

Not quite sure what all I'll be getting into here, but I'm excited to see where this all goes!

Haven't had a ton of free time today to look over everything yet, but the Samsung display stuff I saw was pretty neat. Especially the transparent display. Lenovo also announced a neat 2-in-1 PC/tablet that runs both Windows and Android in their respective modes.

Introducing a new Copilot key to kick off the year of AI-powered Windows PCs (blogs.windows.com)

Today, we are excited to take the next significant step forward and introduce the Copilot key to Windows 11 PCs. In this new year, we will be ushering in a significant shift toward a more personal and intelligent computing future where AI will be seamlessly woven into Windows from the system, to the silicon, to the hardware....

Okay, sounds good!

For now, I've switched out the UFO for a rocket ship, and I can easily adjust it around accordingly as more feedback comes in.

No problem!

This time in addition to the cutout of the Kbin logo, I also added the color gradient from Kbin's logo to the solar system as I thought it pulled the whole thing together well. But I could switch it to a single solid color instead if that's preferable.

Additionally, I could also put something together with a similar style as memmy's icon if you like that concept better than the solar system.

Okay. I adjusted the size of the stars in the background, though I can adjust them a little more if you think that would be better.

And I did adjust the galaxy slightly, however in order to stay in accordance with the Android Adaptive icons guidance I can't make it any larger without part of it potentially getting cut off when it's in use on an Android device.

I made a few adjustments, so it should work better now as an adaptive icon without additional work.

I also have a monochrome variant of the icon ready that can be generated once a final version of the icon has been decided on.
