ORA:: Logo submission & discussion thread

[Mac Red]

Beautiful designs, great work!

[Pentamon]

So here is a question to gvans:
How about giving us a few bigger versions of your design, in multicolour?
Maybe try figroll's colours, just to compare.

Ok, not to make things any easier here's some more variations for you

         

Thank you gvans, I am not supposed to show favouritism, but I really like the possibilities in this logo.

Pentamon.

I vote #3

[crz]

I vote: 2

[zhile11911]

Number 1 .

                                        


the other fill color seems better.

[gvans]

I vote number 1.



Still like a lot a couple of others too but now I feel this one gives the most possibilities in different scales, works also black&white, colour variations, and even the average-joe could draw it on paper Best of luck for all designs and Ora!

Number 5 gets my vote

[figroll]

I vote for no.3

I would just like to agree with what Mac Red wrote with regards to judging designs just by color(s)

My point is this, would you pick my design if it was this.



Probably not, as it looks boring and dull.

I think if we keep trying to judge individual designs on the basis of numerous color combinations/variations and image manipulations we could still be discussing into the New Year.

Here is just a few examples of ways I can change my chosen image.

 

The above examples are purely for reference and should not be included in the voting process.

Anyway whatever the outcome, it has been a very worthwhile learning experience for me.

Excellent, the 'heavy weights' are voting! 
Waiting for kussaka...

figroll, Thank you for the interesting variations. You may want to keep those for the distinct possibility that your design is the 'one'.

It has been an interesting and educational process, for me too.

My vote goes for this one, looks cool

[LemonAndFries]

As a lucky stakeholder (thanks much), I vote for #5

[megashira1]

I dont see how gvans submission can function as a logo as it relies on the background and its color and is entrapped within a box. It looks more like an avatar without a border.

Number 5

I'm going with the same, #5.

Figroll, I think the greyscale logo is as beautiful as the colour logo.  No need to contort the design - it's already very, very good!

I think I like your prison bar variation, plain black and white, the best of all of your colour schemes so far.  The reason I like it is it is the one that most looks like a starfish.  The moire effect at the starfish arm ends causes the eye to make the ends more rounded and gives some boundary to the illusion.  It helps the human eye "complete" the figure.  BTW, the moire effect could effectively work in solid colour bars too, so it isn't limited in that respect.  Well done!

kind regards,
nio

I find it interesting that throughout the process, we ended up with only one logo that distinctly portrays a starfish.  The rest of the final logos have subtle hints of starfishiness, but are really their own unique designs.

I submit a round of applause to ALL the entrants, regardless of outcome.  I continually struggled with narrowing down the field to the final entrants, and struggled with the final entrants themselves!  I can't remember the last time I was confronted with so many fine choices.  Usually the choices are much more obvious, because there are a preponderance of mediocre entries.  But not in this contest.  There were only a couple of choices that I could instantly strike out.  The rest were just fantastic, and believe me when I say that I'm not one to praise others as a way to soothe hurt feelings or anything like that.

So, to all the astonishingly talented logo designers who participated in the contest, I encourage you to stick around.  We may have need in the future of more of your talent!

kind regards,
