I want you to create a new character, in a similar style. Some key elements:
- Needs to be on a white/transparent background. No bg textures or anything.
- Should be a male programmer character with shaggy hair. HOWEVER, if you'd like to stand out, I'm not against a non-human character. Maybe a fun animal/monster/etc at their laptop. It's up to you! We're open to ideas.
- The character must be casual and friendly (though not cartoony). Don't use anyone in a suit, or overly dressed up. Jeans and a t-shirt are fine.
- Headphones around the characters ears might be nice, but up to you.
- I do want the character behind a laptop, as you can see in the image we currently have.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/68hsh29ee…1.png?dl=0) Make sure that the laptop includes the Laracasts logo. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u…g/logo.svg
- As part of the completed source files, I'd like you to give me an SVG that I can embed directly on the page.
- I still want various icons/bubbles/whatever you want around the character, which lists the various technologies we teach. (PHP, Laravel, JavaScript, Vue, CSS, OOP). In the case of Laravel and Vue, you can find their logos here:
