Title: Help me pick the Litecoin logo! (final round between 2 logos)
Post by: coblee on October 23, 2011, 08:05:11 PM
I prefer BitcoinPorn's logo a bit more since it captures the "lite" feel for Litecoin, but I really like kano's logo also. Help me pick the official Litecoin logo! The winner will become the Litecoin logo. And the designer gets 300 LTC reward.

Tricky.  I'd like to see a transparent gif of BitcoinPorn's logo so that I could see how it looks against different colored (or white) backgrounds.

They're both very good but I prefer BitcoinPorn one.

Below is a fully transparent png that you can layer over whatever you would like to see how it looks over any color.  Of course it will look a light blue or silverish hue because of the default forum colors.

Examples of it over many things

Example of it over "Kano Silver" ;)

Finally, psd file with all the above options plus the ability to make your own background http://www.mediafire.com/?icw5ek51e939wgy



People into marketing might want to keep in mind the unique ability for this coin to adapt to whatever use you want to, as seen my previous versions of the coin

Firstly I am doing this in jest only ...

How about a 75% opacity silver coin

The above with coloured lizards walking under it on white paper :D

:D That about sums up half the time I spent on the coin, putting pictures behind it, think less lizard and more nipples though.

Didn't Steve Jobs make it into the coin code?   Maybe Gates needs love too, with the limited edition Windows XP Clouds Wallpaper Litecoin

Yes, I started working on Litecoin the day after Steve Jobs passed away. I thought the memory of Steve Jobs is a great foundation for the Litecoin block chain to be built on top of.

Looks like we will go with BitcoinPorn's logo. I will work with BitcoinPorn to add the logo to the client. Thanks everyone for voting.
