Very professional, and strong theme.

I am really starting to have some fun here...
I happened to look at the NEM logo contest - they took a very long time, and to my eyes, the logos that are here at ORA are more creative and professional. Not to say anything bad about NEM - I acquired a stake after they came out on the NXT AE,  but something in the ORA process seems to just go smoother and - gulp! - quicker!  This gives me confidence in the future of ORA.

How delightful, look at all these cute buttons!  

Thank you for doing this. Somehow you do this miniaturization better than my efforts, gvans.  I can recognize the originals better than I though I would.

I want to ask you for a more complete list, but I realize that might take time.  It might be handy for people to look at when they get ready to vote in a few days.

This ties in with a question by DarkhorseofNxt:

There are still time for logo submission. We want more logo.

Btw Pentamon, have you planned how the reward is going to be like?

Yes, I have some ideas, and I would like to hear opinions and improvements:

There is a saying, and a song, which says: "The winner takes it all!"
It always bothered me, until I realized that we all will be winners, if the winning ORA design produced here, will do everything that a good logo can: be a recognizable, inviting and inspiring identity that to everyone who sees it: We are ORA! We are an inviting, growing starfish organization. We have an identity, that you may want to be part of!

Ok, scrap that, start over: The logo should communicate much, much more, than what I can ever do with my keyboard and my limited imagination. Truly a challenge, especially because the eyeballs that look at it, are all so different. They are all round, I know, but people have so many different associations, and that is the reason I think we will vote on the design.

Back to the reward:
I think that every person who submitted a design, should get at least a token participation reward.
From there, it should ramp up, with the winning design clearly getting the lion's share.
With 'ramp up'. I mean we should try to acknowledge the ones that did not win, but contributed ideas and thoughts that helped others.
Since that is very hard to tease out, i was wondering: could we use our voting outcome, to build the 'allocation ramp'?
In other words, could we use the voting outcome to divide the 10 allocated Ora stakes?

I would 'double up' the final winner, if you know what I mean, to keep the incentive there to reach the peak.

DarkhorseofNxt, and anybody else, let me know what you think.

First design:

Or this ? Evolution of my design MK II

Hi JimClone,

thank you for your participation.

I see that you took the idea of the little round 'nibs' on the starfish, and use them on the font. I see sandy beaches, with flickering lightbulbs around the windows of the restaurant nearby.  I like the way that the design idea carries over, and I like the idea that there could be an ORA font - it's own recognizable writing font, as unique and recognizable as the font that we associate with Coca Cola. I would like to encourage you to work in that direction.

Maybe read the updated guidelines again, the name is now Ora -  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=697958.msg7952290#msg7952290

16pix

3-dimensional logo with 4 solid colours.
From 2d 5-sided starfish to 3d 12-sided pentagon.

Every new design from gvans, makes me go: Yes!

Ok, folks, we are going to keep this process going on for at least another six months, so that I can see more of designs from gvans, kussaka and BuobonicNugz.

Just kidding, of course, we are staying on schedule.

But seriously, have any of you peaked yet?
The end-spurt is coming and I am loving the designs.

Everyone gets something. And winner gets more. Thats the idea. But i would like to see all this logos being used in someway. I dont know. Something may come in our "journey" .  Maybe in some promotions or campaigns etc. Last thing i want to see all the nice colorful logos is wasted. Just my opinion.

You are thinking the same way I do.
If you ever have played with Prezi.com?
You may think of a way to connect all the designs.

Here is an idea: The little warts or patterns on the starfish: if you zoom in on them, they show the other designs, that are all part of the embryology of what is becoming Ora.
Not quite fractal, but similar.

Is there anybody here, who can help me edit this Prezi?
http://prezi.com/zk-cuegzir2_/logo-for-ora/

I am hoping to enter all the entries, grouped by designer, in a 'rainbow'.

This will be useful for voting and also for displaying the results.

let me know if you want to participate.
