Not a very good logo but just thought these were nice. Plain and simple. Just experimenting again Smiley

Hmm I think I got a new desktop background. Cool

Here's the really plain versions.

Flat versions:









The tiny version... we knew that would happen, didn't we?

Two suggestions: both involve cutting the key in half:
Go with your square "O" only - the handle of the key ?  Very distinct, I would say.

Or try kussaka's idea: put evan's square starfish outline inside your square "O" - I expect that to be recognizable as well, especially if you use complementing colours.

Oh sorry Grin

It's all good. I am glad you persist with us.
I hope you enjoy the process just as much as I do.

I know how you feel.
Truly, this is the hard part.

That is why I am so thankful that kussaka made his vote. You could just see his efforts - but he made his choice.
Maybe you can read the links he provided for inspiration:

Lot of nice logoes, look great! It will be difficult to choose.
Maybe these articles can help to choose. Wink

Another approach is to look at the list of designs, and vote strategically: http://prezi.com/zk-cuegzir2_/logo-for-ora/

My Vote 1



My Vote 2



My Vote 3



@Pentamon, above will be my vote as well. I like the fact there is the starfish element and the "key" feature incorporated into one awesome ora logo. Honestly i didnt think the plain version of the "key" would be a good option but now, yeah, i will take that back. It make sense now to me.

Also the fact that 1 designer incorporated 2 other designers idea into 1, guys you have my respect. Thanks to this corporation, i have come up with an idea. I will post that soon, hopefully we can be an undeniable  moving factor in the future of crypto currency.

Thank you all for making this happen.

Hello

By seeing all the logos posted in this thread I think it will be very difficult almost impossible
to decide about which one is better and to choose the best one.
I would like to vote for more than 1 logo at time because I'm really undecided which one is better.
I think a voting system which will include all the posted logos and will give a option to users
to rate any logo from 1 to 5 or 1 to 10 would be the best solution but I don't know how this will work out
or if this would be possible over NXT voting system.

I am going to watch with interest which three you vote for, kussaka  Wink

Pentamon

I vote so ... Forgive me Gvans and Maximuss. Smiley
Both logos are perfect, but I could not resist  to combine them together.






And vote to my second version of the logo.
I combined my logo with a model site for example, to show features of it and the point it between strong competitors. Smiley

Darkhorse

@ Darkhorse, you are right, it is a feeling of respect and admiration that we get when we see that the developers (in this thread the graphical designers) work together around ideas that bring us further.
If we can continue this kind of cooperation into the further development of Ora, beyond the logo, can you imagine what powerful process this will be? 

I am looking forward to your idea. There is a need for us to find new ways to support this direction, and a way to acknowledge all the people involved in it. Truly the whole is more than the sum of it's parts.

An industry of designer community supported by Ora. And incorporating designer community with marketing in creating a powerful and effective marketing tool to reach all kinds of folks.

A little bit of messy right now in my (contributed by the nxt hack). I will share with everyone once i have the details properly figured.

Just a thought.
Pentamon

First I was thinking of sending a private message to gvans, kussaka and maximuss,
however then I thought: everyone might as well know that I am asking, So here goes:

@gvans, kussaka and maximuss, and other designers who want to jump in.

If you guys agree, I would like to make this design my top vote.
To my way of thinking, and as it turns out also for Darkhorse, this captures not only the history of collaboration, but also two concepts: starfish and key.

However, I am not completely happy with certain details, and I lack the technical skills to make it happen.
Would you consider polishing it?

Things that I would like to see changed, in order to evaluate it, are:
1. The big square "O" might be slightly bigger, in relation to the rest of the key.
2. I would like to keep the SouthWest corner even thickness, and see if that looks better on the small version as well. In other words, what effect would that have on the starfish inside.
3. My colour choices here are not great, I would like to explore other colours. The golden-brown shades from the starfish that kussaka used are kind of more what I was thinking.  My impression is that a dark tone for the key, and a lighter, fiery colour for the starfish inside might be working.  Please give some variations, if you will.

A question to maximuss: Is there any risk that some fond designer will come after us about the  use of a font?  I know there is always that possibility, but I just want to make sure that we are somewhat 'future-proofed' for that eventuality.

We are sort of moving in newer territory here, trying to work together on a design. We all know the saying: "it looks as though it was designed by a committee" - not really a flattering comment.
However to me this looks like a design I would like to support.

Fortunately we have left some flexibility in how exactly we reward the efforts here, so we can be creative there.
And I still have my pot o' Ora that could be dipped into  Cheesy

Ah!  Good idea. 
We might see: Ora = Marketing
Take your time to sort things out.

Shouldn't be a problem, the font is donationware so as long as the author gets a small donation, I'm sure he'll be happy for us to use it.
http://www.dafont.com/fatalitys-edge.font

Taken from Dafont page:
-------------------------
"FOR ANY USAGE
Either: Donate money to Andrew McCluskey via PayPal: nal@nalgames.com. I recommend the donation sum is what you feel the font is worth to you and what you feel is right for what you're getting from the font - I make less from doing this than you might think!
Or: Purchase any item from my store: http://www.zazzle.com/nalgamesstore for rights to use this font.
Or: Buy me something from my Firebox wishlist: http://www.firebox.com/wish/4iC9fX6N for rights to use this font.
Or: Send me any game I do not already own to my Steam account: nal-games / nal@nalgames.com
Or: Send me a gift! I can provide my address on request. Bonus points if the gift is a physical item with my font on it somehow! Money donation also accepted this way.

FOR NON-COMMERCIAL OR NON-PROFIT USAGE
Either: Do any of the options from "For Any Usage"

Or: Drop me a line on nal@nalgames.com telling me you're using it. If possible, include what for, and if you're feeling generous, I'd love to see a sample of my font in action!
-------------------------

I'm more than happy to collaborate with other designers for the logo / marketing etc, will post up a few more updates when I get back from work, thanks.

If this logo does get picked, we will send him a stake as part of permission to use the font and get him advertise on his website. It will be a good promotion. Part of designers industry building. Agree?
