Logo Design (Closed)

[brendio]

I like the first one above too.

I keep to the B&W logos as they are more professional in print. Color logos look like shit if you print them on letter heads.

I'm sure pirate will be using a lot of letterheads.

My next entry.



Second one has little bit different with a pirate skull in the logo. In this logo the black bar represents a black pirate hat.



Hope you guys like it and comment always welcome.

Edit: Added others logo's here with new link from imgur in stead of imageshack

Dollartrader's top logo has my vote at this point. Matthew's point is a good one about including "pirate" themes in the logo; might drive away investors who do not get the joke.

The joke to me being that banks take your money, and so do pirates.

honestly id trust a real pirate over a real banker...

And you run a company in bitcoin where you hold people's money? Yikes.

why do people keep posting a frog in an icecube?

Quoted for comedy gold. That is "imageshack" and some places are blocked/disallowed so it shows the imageshack logo. I always encourage people to use imgur.com instead if imageshack.us. I used to support them, but not anymore.

We may have a new bitcoin convert. The logo designs I posted are by Kristian. He's in noobie jail..

I thought you were going to quit trolling, or do you not understand sarcasm? In any event try to work on English comprehension. These sort of life skills are really important.

Hey, if you are trying to be sarcastic, you need to try a lot harder.

nice designs. I think sticking with either the ship, parrot or compass are the best references without being disconcerting.

Just wondering... is there a deadline for this contest?

I am considering making a design, but haven't heard about this until today... trying to gauge if I'll have the time...

Haha. I read the whole thread, but clearly missed the title. Thanks!

Posting for a friend.

You thought I was serious about the frog in the ice cube? Well, I guess I failed to judged my audience correctly. I apologize and will try to be more clear in the future.

Thanks.

You need to put those conceptual wheelchair ramps on your posts if you are going to apply the sarcasms.

Any of the following are acceptable models.

• Normal smiley: 
• Winking smiley, which shows that you're joking: 
• Other, less used smileys: 
• "Fake" HTML "close sarcasm" indicator: </sarcasm>
• For advanced users only, irony punctuation: ⸮

Personally, I like to return to those handicapped in the arts of subtext detection the gift they give us, ignorance.  It's right there under their contact methods on every post.   

I wasn't going to post until the end but that was funny.  LMAO

Just finished up my entry, I hope you guys like it:






I went with a captains wheel to give it that subtle pirate reference, and it let me get creative with the bitcoin logo.
In retrospect, I feel it gives it a comforting vibe that you're in control and steering towards new horizons with the bitcoin.
This logo could also be in a million different color combinations, but I felt the single color design really showed off it's adaptability.

Thanks,
Kevin

P.S.
There's more where this came from!

Some  great designs up in hurr.

This is my favorite monochrome logo so far. If pirate does need letterheads, I'd go with this one.

With ship & Bitcoin logo:



I like the approaching ship form better then the sideways silhouette, as the approaching form relays more power and strength.
The sideways ship form is like: hey, there is a ship, how nice. The approching silhouette is like: hey, shit, this ship is coming for me and it's HUGE!

Or flying the well known Jolly Roger:

Or it could mean "hey! that ship is sailing away with all my money!"

So better draw the ship coming with a lot of money, rather then leaving without a trace

The IN of BITCOIN has a diferent collor, which compounded with the backwards PIRATE text and the TRUST bellow means "IN PIRATE (we) TRUST"
Now to explain why the Pirate is written upside down and inverted: It means the trust the users of BS&T have in Pirate is kind of a backwards sentiment Trusting a Pirate! lol?

My personal favourite

The binary code around the globe after decoded gives PIRATE Wich compounded with the IN in a different color also has a subtle meaning of "IN PIRATE (we) TRUST".
The circle has a bit of a bigger space between the end and the beginning of the binary code to mark the spot where it starts.

I think the sail shape needs revising.. looks like a shark fin or something. Also you could consider a different sillouette shape, but I do really like the bold fonts and simplicity of this one. It exudes quality and looks like a 'blue chip' company logo. Make the revision and win!!
