A Cat Lover’s Dream
For quite some time, I’ve been planning to create a website dedicated to cats. As a big animal lover, I have a special fondness for cats. They are wildly entertaining, intelligent, sociable, yet incredibly independent. Their wild nature has remained untamed for thousands of years, officially speaking, almost 12,000 years. This untamed side of them is our connection to our primal and “wild” selves.
The Idea: A Cat-Themed Website
The idea is to create a website about cats and a cat shop where I would also showcase some of my handcrafted works thematically related to cats. I tried something similar about a decade ago, but I didn’t have enough persistence. From that attempt, I still have an account on Facebook, TwitterX, and Instagram – where I regularly post photos and sometimes videos of my house cats.
The Need for a New Logo
Yesterday I experimented with creating ads with the help of Midjourney AI, and today I will try to create a logo for my website. The one I have is starting to bore me a bit. So, I decided to utilize ChatGPT 4 and Midjourney AI image generator.
The Role of AI in Logo Creation
The starting point was instructing ChatGPT-4 to create a prompt that I would then use in Midjourney. The instructions were: “I want to create a logo for my online shop for cats (food, toys, beds, and other). We will use an AI image generator called Midjourney. I need you to create 5 prompts for me. The logo should be minimal but playful and colourful. You will need to include at least 5 descriptive keywords, as well as defining the logo style, media used, and the reference artist. Your response should include words “logo for online cat shop” at the beginning.”
The AI-Generated Prompts and AI Logo Design
ChatGPT-4 generated 5 prompts for me, which I then input into Midjourney, resulting in 5 sets of 4 logos each.
- Logo for online cat shop: “Minimalistic yet playful cat toy silhouette framed with geometric shapes. Colours: vibrant pastels. Logo style: flat design. Media: digital painting. Reference artist: Saul Bass.”
- Logo for online cat shop: “Abstract representation of a cat sleeping on a bed. Colours: mix of warm and cool pastels. Logo style: contemporary minimalist. Media: digital sketch. Reference artist: Picasso.”
- Logo for online cat shop: “Stylized cat paw print filled with small icons representing food, toys, and beds. Colours: rainbow gradient. Logo style: modern and fun. Media: vector art. Reference artist: Tyler Pate.”
- Logo for online cat shop: “Cheerful cat face with abstract shapes and patterns. Colours: bright primary colours. Logo style: geometric abstraction. Media: digital illustration. Reference artist: Charley Harper.”
- Logo for online cat shop: “Line art of a cat playing with a toy, placed within a circular frame. Colours: muted pastels. Logo style: minimalist line art. Media: digital drawing. Reference artist: Matisse.”
Not bad at all! Some need a bit of tweaking, subtraction, or correction. But all in all, I’ve shortened my path to the final logo solution for “Cats Magazine”.
I still need to decide which variant to choose.
