Nothing in this thread so far beats the current logo. Not even close. Until something comes close, they are all useless. That's my opinion anyway.
A professional designer will be working with me on it starting Tuesday. You ain't seen nothing yet ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

A professional designer will be working with me on it starting Tuesday. You ain't seen nothing yet ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Good. That's what I thought was supposed to be the point of this, the thread has derailed into a bounty competition which I think won't work for something that simply has to be really good, not just good. It's never bad to throw around ideas though, it can at least help to see what isn't a good idea. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

The ||B logo stands head and shoulders above all the other logos in the thread...It's got a lot of good ideas built into it. If what we've seen is nothing so far, I can't wait to see what is in store.

The design is awesome, the text: Global Digital Currency is perfect. But the double B paranoia is just stupid. Even my wife said that she preferred the previous version with the "Bitcoin", and the "itcoin" version looks a bit circumsized.

"Global Digital Currency" sounds like NWO currency. ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) Something like "P2P" which implies that there is no central authority should remain in it.

Most people who would understand what p2p means and the implications therein don't need it in the logo...those that won't understand it wouldn't be all that interested in the decentralized aspect of Bitcoin anyway. Anyhow, multiple logo options are likely anyhow.

IMHO, Ƀitcoin looks more professional than BTCitcoin. The thing is, BTC is much easier to identify as a currency for someone who has never heard of BTC before, because of its similarity to the $. Even so, by changing to the Ƀ newcomers might mentally put more distance between the USD and Bitcoin. It might not have a huge effect, but it may have an effect nonetheless.

Stunning, but simple enough for a multitude of use-cases. Definitely my favorite so far, dunno if I'd take it over the original though... but maybe that's just because of attachment. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) EDIT: Could you make a version with the color of the classic orange coin? Curious as to how that would look.
