I will donate if you do a version ditching the Karm(a) and doing the stylized "K" like $

Which symbol do you like the most? lotus or elephant?

[CryptoMF]

Here is a large list of examples of lotus flower symbols:

https://www.google.com/search?q=lotus+flower+symbols&client=firefox-a&hs=af8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=sb&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=KWEOU9nUEoTYoAS91IHAAg&ved=0CDcQsAQ&biw=1920&bih=1028

That's how I found the symbol I'm using. There are a ton of different options there... any suggestions on which one to use?

Here are some examples to start with. Couldn't find the perfect one but these are more what I was thinking:

Couldn't really find a good way to put the elephant on top of the lotus, this was the best way I could find to combine them...

I like so much this one! Pro!

Btw, if you like my work a small donation would be nice

I can't make up my mind witch one is better

[MuffinMaster]

really like this one, and I like that K, small suggestion try having the lines in the middle slightly higher then the top/bottom of the K.

"If anyone has done Religious Studies at University or perhaps even studdied Buddhism or Hinduism you will know about Dharma and Karma..."

And how many of the crypto users and investors have studied that?

"Anyone who doesn't 'approve' of said religious connotations will stop at the name KARMA coin - they won't give a shit about the logo, their mind will be made up already. These people are few and far between and we need not pay them any mind. "

This isn't freaking Pope coin.. a lot of atheist believe in karma..and/or make reference to them.  The point of the design is to not spook any potential investors/users of this coin and take a middle ground.  If the name karma is already so religious, why would u add even more religious elements to it?  This isn't a coin for just the people that studies religions.

"Remember folks, 25% of the worlds population is either Hindu or Buddhist"

And how many of those people are interested in crypto?

"If anyone has done Religious Studies at University or perhaps even studdied Buddhism or Hinduism you will know about Dharma and Karma - it makes perfect sense to have the dharma wheel on the logo for a coin called KARMA"

We're not trying to do some hardcore rocket science research on the basis of a name..we're trying to appeal to as many people as possible.  It's not about what you like..or what is politically and factually correct.  Seeing anything religious like a dharma wheel will be a turn off for lots of people.  It reminds me of those jehova witnesses ppl knocking on my door..and bothering me when I'm trying to take the metro somewhere.  That's an immediate turn off.

A cute looking elephant is not bad of an idea.  It gives potential users a feeling of friendliness..and the fact that there's a friendly community that is intent on helping others.  Emotional appeal is important when you are trying to market a product to people.  People said Doge was garbage.. but guess what?  It's a funny coin..and people like it because it doesn't take itself seriously.  People felt connected to Doge..the fun coin of the crypto world..and look at it now.. it's huge.  The last thing we need to do is to put a religious symbol on the coin and turn off every potential user.

As soon as we as a community decide on a coin image, I'll make a Karmacoin Intro video too. I'm pretty decent at After Effects as well

As requested, the lotus flower...

Nice first try but I think it needs to look more like an actual Lotus Flower. Keep it simple though. Nothing too complicated.

i personally like elephant as logo much better for karma!

Did you even research what the Lotus Flower and Karma mean? Elephants really have very little to do with Karma except they are both linked to India. Nothing wrong with liking elephants though.

doesnt matter what karma symbols mean..... for me! Elephant was original symbol of Karmacoin, so i think it should stay! Elephant is good sign and you can use everething for karma, nobody say what is right and what is wrong, alone to say this is wrong this is right is FALSE if you belive/understanding Karma!

Damn it is painful trying to read and understand your posts.  The original logo and coin designs are horrible. Otherwise a lot of us wouldn't be trying to change them. The Lotus Flower has a very powerful and very POSITIVE association with Karma. It is instantly associated with good and Karma by the majority of the world. Elephants not so much.

Elephants symbolize abundance, I personally love the Abundance Elephant on the coin

and I am due for some abundance due to my karma at the moment

Elephant wins so far in my books as well.  At least people can relate to an elephant.  A friendly vibe..and a community that helps others.

One more with a different elephant...
