Hi all! We are in a need of catchy logo for Trezor: Bitcoin Hardware Wallet - see http://trezor.bitcoin.cz/ for more info (atm redirects to its thread on this forum). Rules: - submissions must be posted to this thread before Friday 25th January 20:00 UTC
- submissions must contain graphical logo and the text "trezor" or "Trezor" or "TREZOR" (text can be part of the graphical logo)
- submissions must be monochromatic (i.e. containing only black and white color)
- submissions must contain a link to either a SVG vector file (preferred) or a high resolution bitmap (at least 1000x1000 pixels)
- we reserve the right not to pick any submission
- we reserve the right to edit the chosen submission to fit our needs
- by participating in the contest you agree that you waive all your rights related to the logo and that we can use it for our product
Some additional info: The brand logo should associate security, reliability, something safe, not easy to break, strongness, power. It can also associate treasure, things of high value. It should feel strong, safe and reliable, heavy and secure. It should differentiate from other bitcoin related brand names. Thank you for your time and effort!

Is it specifically 'trezor' i.e all lower case ? Answered.
Also, have you thought what you want to call it in other writing systems ? I am thinking specifically of Chinese/ Japanese.
For instance, 'treasure' in Simplified Chinese is:
宝
Bǎo
I am not a Chinese speaker so I am sure much nicer transliterations are possible (i.e. using two glyphs to give a "treasure-ey ness"). Personally I think Chinese/ Japanese look better in icons than our rather boring Roman characters.

Ah, no, I'll fix the first post. Acceptable are: "trezor", "Trezor" and "TREZOR". Also, have you thought what you want to call it in other writing systems ?
Let's stick to latin alphabet for now :-)

Original: With drop shadow: Inverted: Inverted w/ drop shadow: 1000x1000 versionIt'd be pretty neat if the winner of the contest got a free Trezor.

However, it's not legal (at least in my country).

What's the aspect ratio of the hardware screen? Is it useful to have a logo that fits well into it?

I notice all the submissions are using just black and white. By monochromatic do you also mean that people can use greyscale too ?
If so, knowing the number of levels of grey on the Trezor screen would be useful.
if (american) { s/grey/gray/g }

No, we mean black and white only i.e. no grayscale ...

I added a thicker border and centered the chest. (There's a white border around the inverted one, it's just impossible to see with a white background )

Good question. The display is 128x64 pixels, so ratio is 2:1
