Title: Bitcoin Logo with a little twist
Post by: 18RATTT on July 13, 2013, 06:57:44 AM
My photoshop urge kicked in last night, playing around with a bitcoin logo.
Im not a graphic designer or anything, so please be kind with your criticism  :-*

It's lovely. I like the shadows.

The BTC floating in a so calm water...

I like it.  They lines could be shadows, or they could be movement trails.  My eye sees the movement trails, and then it looks the B⃦ and coin are moving backwards.  Nothing wrong with that, but perhaps not quite as subliminally powerful as is moving up and forward.  The particular change would be altering the angle of the shadows lines from ~120º to  ~240º.

Cool design. The only thing is, as another poster mentioned, there is a visual ambiguity between shadows and movement trails (motion blur), but because of this it looks like it's leaving behind a dark or dirty trail. Up and to the right and a steeper angle (trail down and to the left a bit) with whiter movement trails might work.

Either that or, to prevent it from looking like movement trails, taper the shadows in a natural way so that they look more like shadows.

Looks good. Nice and simple.

Maybe you could add some faint clouds in the background to make it look as if it's shooting into the sky.

+1, but I really like it! Good job!

Great job!

A tiny bit of criticism,

It has a bit of a playmobile type feel to it.

Would you consider sharing the PSD for all of us to play with?

Give us more resolutions and turn this into a wallpaper ;)

I'd use this on my iPhone / Desktops.

+1 Would you mind sharing a high-resolution version? :) I really like your pic and it's been my wallpaper for more than a month now!!

I'm a sucker for improving the logo...I think there are some very strong design concepts here.

Of historical interest, see coinabul's thread:
