Add a nice favicon about keyboard-shortcuts-practice

[nidhishs]

Hey, I have some experience doing graphic design. If you want, I can design a custom favicon for you.

[nidhishs]

Hi @nidhishs, don’t go overboard for us, but that sounds amazing!

Not a problem at all. Let me know what specifications you want, such as any colour schemes you want me to abide by, or any ideas you might have.

Also if you don't mind, it would be great if I could send the PR in October so it also get's counted for Hacktoberfest.

Removed the < > symbol.

Tried making a minimalist keyboard.

Let me know what you think of these.

Of course, let's count this for hacktoberfest!

Check out our GitHub profile icon and Techtonica.org... our branding uses a certain shade of teal, and white. Our only mascot so far has been the Golden Gate Bridge. @MichelleGlauser please jump in if there's more to it than that.

Hey, I'm extremely sorry for ghosting you guys for almost a week. Was busy with some assignments, but now I'm back :)

Considering you guys need a favicon, I figured having something as detailed as your mascot (the Golden Gate Bridge) inside a tiny favicon wouldn't look good. So I designed this icon with the ⌘ icon since the concerned website is for keyboard practice. This is the first idea that came to my mind, so please critique whatever you feel needs to be changed. I also designed one with your brand name, however it becomes also difficult to read on such a small scale. Let me know what you guys think and I'll try to cater to your needs. @alodahl

I love the first command key one! 😍 What do you think @vegetabill @MichelleGlauser ?

[nidhishs]

@alodahl If you like the first icon, should I make a PR for it?
I'll add the icon to images/favicon

[alodahl]

I'd like a few more Techtonica leaders to have a look this week before the final decision. Thanks @nidhishs !

[vegetabill]

Thanks for this contribution, @nidhishs

+1 to @alodahl 's choice. I too like the top left one the best. What's your take, @MichelleGlauser ?

Michelle's feedback:
"Hi Alina, maybe they could do something with a keyboard or a bunch of buttons?
Or we could just use the Techtonica favicon."
She's referring to the favicon on this site: https://techtonica.org/

[alodahl]

She's also wondering how you would feel about removing the brackets from the command symbol one.

Thanks Alina for conveying the feedback

"Hi Alina, maybe they could do something with a keyboard or a bunch of buttons?

Yes that was my initial thought, however the button on the keyboard would look too cluttered when shrunk to the size of a favicon. However, I will design it, and you can decide if it suits your taste.

She's also wondering how you would feel about removing the brackets from the command symbol one.

Very much possible if you prefer it that way. I'll make the changes and share them here later today.

Or we could just use the Techtonica favicon."
She's referring to the favicon on this site: https://techtonica.org/

Yes the favicon on that site is certainly useable. Please let me know what you decide.

I'll ask Michelle. @nidhishs these are amazing 🤸🏼‍♀️

Do we have any suggestions or are we good to make a PR? @alodahl

Lets go with the keyboard!
