[VOTE][YAC] Yacoin Logo Change & Official Name

[ilostcoins]

My intention was to focus on the overall look of the artwork now. Colour can be discussed later. If I throw in various colours for the artworks now, the votes may become too diffused.

Like it even matters... Coin price is dead anyway?

Or a great buying opportunity.

Educational thread bump! 

Please don't spam the voting thread. If you want to discuss something it's better to do it somewhere else.

Yeah, I agree. YaCurrency doesn't work

Perhaps it should have been clarified, but the name only refers to the acronym of YAC which was initially deemed to be "Yet Another Coin" - While the "Yet Another" naming convention is a cute/clever way to name some other open source apps, it doesn't convey a good deal of confidence in a coin.

So, no matter what is voted for, the name will still be YACoin.

+1 I believe the color is pretty irrelevant. I stole my logo from someone else, and I believe the colors stem from the original colors of Bitcoin.

The idea behind Your Alternative CURRENCY is that it implies an alternative to all currencies (USD, EUR), whereas Your Alternative Coin seems to imply an alternative to just bitcoin or litecoin.  Maybe overthinking?  Along that point, the alt coins in recent past would increase in value with the value of bitcoin, but not so much anymore... so perhaps riding on the bitcoin coattails isn't as good of an idea anymore?  But on another point, 'YaCoin' has already been accepted maybe more so than just 'YAC'.  I think the two (Your Alternative Currency and Your Alternative Coin) could be used almost interchangeably?  I don't know... I just know 'Yet Another Coin' is f&%#ing dumb.

Color matters a lot.

Original Bitcoin color is actualy light orange top to bottom gradient.

Very fascinating, but I don't understand the point...  the Oreo logo is blue because it conveys trust and strength?  But entertaining the concept, I would favor a YaCoin color scheme that is multi-colored for diversity--it fits well with the decentralized theme and the term 'your' coin/currency.

Taking the discussion to a different place megastore...

Well done.  Just make it the Yen/Yuan symbol... um no.  Some people also don't realize the Ɏ is a clever 'Y' and 'A' combination (A is upside down).

[senj]

If those two are the only choices, then I would not change it. I am also experimenting with crypto coin logo design and I will try to come up with something.
"Your alternative currency" name sounds much better though.

And please don't change coin logo to something similar to Yen symbol:

Tryin to go for a round logo was all


I like the almost superman symbol in this one below, quite happy to work with the team on the logo

Of course the logos that are already in place are cool too, just offering yet another logo (lol)
