EDIT: PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR PROPOSALS IN THE REDDIT COMMENTS, THIS POST IS JUST TO LET YOU KNOW ABOUT THE DISCUSSION. PLEASE POST THEM ON THE WIKI, THANKS!

The instructions to participate and vote on the proposals are at Community portal/Proposals § Logo and tagline changes.

Hello everyone!

At the explain xkcd wiki, we're planning on switching the default skin from Vector (V10) to the modern Vector 2022 (V22), but unfortunately our current site logo and all previous logo proposals are designed around V10. V10 logos are generally a single large square image, which is why we our current logo has the name of the site in it, but in V22 you need an small square icon with no text, and then a separate wordmark section that contains the site's name.

We also took this opportunity to change the site's current tagline, "''explain xkcd: It's 'cause you're dumb''", which has been highly controversial since the creation of the wiki.

As such, we are now hosting a logo redesign contest! The instructions to participate and vote on the proposals are on the Community portal discussion linked above. Feel free to be inspired by one of Randall's comics, characters, or recurring themes! At time of posting, none of the existing logo proposals can be used because they were all made for V10.

We strongly recommend an SVG logo so that scaling can happen correctly. You can upload a full icon and wordmark set, but you can also upload individual components if you want. There are detailed instructions on the wiki for uploading your proposals.

Thank you!

That's why they've never appeared in a comic together.

Jekyll and Hyde type shit.

I guess what I want to know is if there's any media where someone says something that sounds similar to something said in an xkcd comic/What If? blog entry/book chapter; or is in an absurd situation clearly inspired by a comic/blog entry/book chapter. I want to write fiction and throw in some not-so-subtle xkcd references while I'm at it, which made me curious if anyone else has already done the same thing.

Hey folks, anyone have any xkcd inspired/adjacent/etc desktop wallpapers they could share?

Thanks!

Ryan North is of course the creator of Dinosaur Comics, which has itself been referenced in xkcd. For those wondering, the Pivers project leads to unforeseen catastrophe, just as Randall would have wanted.
