Is the top-right a modified version of MonkeyCHops’ entry?

by Chris Nelson on May 12, 2009 3:23 PM EDT reply actions  

Looks like it but who could know? That one looks nicer though, probably my favorite. I don’t feel like registering to vote.

Last one the first row, and the first on the second row are best IMO.

Yah if they clean this up a bit it has to win. Great simple concept, but as it is right now the Fleur De Leis isn’t all that apparent.

Top right everybody else likes just seems to much of a rip of of NBA logo concept. Cool, but little originality.

Yeah,

that’s my favorite as well.

Oh snap! I didn’t see the GSP in it until you posted that. I never clicked on it to embiggen :P

Yeah that kicks ass.

completely agree

this is by far the best. i don’t even think it needs any “cleaning up”. great concept and execution imo. not a fan of the NBA logo ripoff. its been done to DEATH!

I think it needs cleaning up for a couple of reason. One is the “Oh snap” factor of xFenixKnightx post above. If don’t get the GSP then it’s just ugly. A logo needs to be able to be shrunk or minimally squished, and then it still need to be recognizable. Mainly the S needs to be more apparent (shorten the legs, more uniform width of long leg and a bigger connection of the legs). The second as I have already stated is that the fleur-de-lis isn’t all that apparent. It is right now because all but maybe one of the entries it’s next to all contain the fleur-de-lis so it’s much easier to make the connection.

Another reason I love it is works really well as a 1 color or 2-tone print which makes just that much easier to use.

i understand what you are saying

i just don’t agree. i don’t think its ugly at all if you don’t see the GSP in it, but i’m neither the designer or the client so i really can’t make that call. lol

i’ve been doing design professionally for about 8 years now (including logo design — althought i decided not to enter this contest), so i understand the mechanics and the needed functionality of a logo.

Legibility is completely unnecessary

How many people think of the Windows logo as actually being a window? This can be associated with him, and could be made highly functional for multi-use, and more importantly multi-demo branding with only minor enhancement.

Maybe a knockout background? That way at small sizes they can use 1 or 2 color printing/imaging to make it legible anywhere? two-thirds of the thickest stroke fer instance with some weight tweaking would make this very flexible and complete it as a composition on its own. Anyone else have an idea?

My fave also. But I’m too lazy to register and vote.

Most of these are horrible.

by Gong on May 12, 2009 5:45 PM EDT reply actions  

Yeah, they’re all pretty bad. The first one must’ve been by GSP’s nephew or something.

Anything but the one with wings and the New Orleans Saints logo.

Where’s Blackout to dump on these?

haha nice!

glad to see some BE fans of the 2 mixtape beasts that are Wayne/Juelz.

This was one of mine although it got a little messed up (blurry) when I uploaded it.

What is the significance of the fleur-de-lis?

by toxic on May 12, 2009 8:28 PM EDT reply actions  

It’s the symbol on Quebec’s flag.

by bigweeze on May 12, 2009 10:29 PM EDT up reply actions  

Those are all terrible. I’m shocked that those were the finalists out of 1300 entries, absolutely shocked.

by goodbones on May 12, 2009 10:22 PM EDT reply actions  

Top right

horizontal rectangle. iconic symbol. it’s like the MSB logo. this is clearly the winner.
