Logo Iteration

[indolering]

virtual_master's version is more like it... here even more simplified:

also agree to foglight - logo must work in small and b/w

It looks much nicer shorter, I like that a lot. I'm partly doing this just so we can start evolving the visual identity. I did a paper on political design and there was some really amazing things that happened on the Obama campaign which I would like to emulate here. Namely the unrestricted creativity around the brand which lead to a kind of evolutionary competition around it. Some of those rules about logo design are the product of technical limitations on printing from the mid 20th century.

I totally agree that we also need to have a smaller, scaled down version, for that we can prune the 3d edges on the side (although I'm still partial to the truncated flanges : ).

Hi there,

i've just made a fast Blender 3D Render Preview of Namecoin Logo - Quality is low at the moment due to render time.

It can be used as a 2D Logo as well - its only a little bit playing around with Blender

I am interested in your thoughts and if it can be used officially.

Here it is:



Thx

That looks great, I am working on getting some coins done as a fundraiser for NMC. Could you try working in the optical illusion part of my logo iteration?

Okay, so here are some ~20 iterations on the logo I had before. No-one but myself seemed to care for the flanges.

Because of the number of iterations I'm leaving it in SVG format

Here is a copy in PNG format, but I strongly recommend this SVG version. Open it in Firefox and use `command/control +` to zoom in and out.

Latest:



The widths of the legs on this version are fatter (proportionally) and after I added a slant and started playing around with varying the leg heights I ended up liking this version the best. Biolizard needed a graphic for his coin and no-one had responded here so I just sent him this. It's all subject to change if y'all don't care for it.

Here is the "badge" version:



Its meant to be a mockup of a Bitcoin badge:


Does anyone want me to bring the flanges back?

Oh, and one last thing, someone should totally setup a battle-modo to test ALL of the iterations:

I am working on the logo or better said the complete corporate identity Be patient ...

Being patient is a terrible idea, throw up some ideas and let's iterate.

Another idea.
A good logo has a symbolic meaning also.

What about an antiprism geometric form:


May be could be combined also with some of the above ideas. (N or Zokos triangle or some strange spacial effects)

This is also an antiprism:


The many nodes could symbolize the peers of the network.
