[da2ce7]

Over in Open Transactions land, we are finding ourselves in need of a Logo.

So in true Bitcoin fashion, we are having a competition!

Rules:

Must have two versions: Greyscale and Colour (must look good in both).
Must be in a Vector Graphics format.

(optional) a banner version.


This competition will be open for at-least 2 weeks, or until we have found a great logo.

The prize pool is 2btc atm.  People are welcome to donate more to: 1D9eWaBqawJH4KUb5frWpwZtzkuSZEMnG3

Happy drawing.

Judges: markm, FellowTraveler, da2ce7

Figured I would start in black and white and add color/stylized versions later. That way you can see the basic concept, and then be able to choose a style to mix and match whichever ones you like best.

I tried to emphasize an "O" and a "T" or "X" (for transaction) as much as possible while incorporating a symbol for network or exchange.

One more. This is my favorite so far.

I posted this prior to the competition running -

I'll be submitting more as those are just rough outlines of ideas I had for the logo, but any feedback on them welcome.

Unfortunately, even large raster images will not be accepted for the bounty.  We need clean SVG files, (or Illustrator).

Here's an idea for colors/ a stylized version of the one logo.



And an idea for a banner.



All of these logo variations could work together and be part of a complete design standard for OT.

Moltenmich -
I have what I believe is a very good idea.  I am going to see if I can use inkscape to do it (was not capable- it basically sucked) so I would be open to a 25%-75% (me-you) split if you are interested.

I would be up for that. As long as it's fine that I still submit the logo designs I've already posted separately. (I still want to take the initial b/w designs and flesh them out) But yeah, feel free to PM me and let me know what you have in mind.

Here's one more for now.

(I'll also be working on one with uvwvj that will probably be finished sometime this weekend.)
