Codetoy's new Branding + Major Website Facelift
There has been an endless number of possibilities for Codetoy going forward and for the past few weeks I've been mulling over them again and again. Additionally, I kept feeling quite bothered at the logo for Codetoy. While the old logo was serving it's purpose it would not scale well in the long term. I needed something that would give off the right vibe and was immediately recognizable at small sizes.
After a few weeks of contemplation (and plenty of manga binge reading) I finally found some clarity and have figured out many things. To kick things off Codetoy has had a full website facelift as well as a brand new logo design!

This blog post was written on March 6, but I just never got around to publishing it until March 10. I need to get a proper blog system because the current one requires a lot of manual work, I'll probably work on that soon.
