Vote for new Corona logo

[Ondra]

Since the current Corona logo was just a temporary quick sketch, I will need a new one. A friend made some a  few proposals, and I would like to know your opinion on them:

_edit: voting is over, we have settled on new design (on page 2)

A mix of 3 and 7 maybe, with a preference for 7.
I like the general appearance of 7, simple and good. Well done!

[Chakib]

maybe making diffrent fonts would be  good too

[alieneye]

4... mmm.

The Foundry bought Corona? )

[Paul Jones]

7 looks the most polished, 2 looks funky but what is it meant to be?

[lacilaci]

Are you sure about the colors?

[olejka2k]

3 is the best.
Corona is about light and speed. You have these components in this logo, love it !

[Polymax]

I think number 2 is more appropriate, can be made ​​the colors of it?
Number 7 - resembles logo an apple)).
Num 3 - resembles the sign man/woman)) maybe turned circle to the other side?

[Stan_But]

No one liked. But old logo looks very good

[lacilaci]

I like third one I think... but gray scaled, with borders, more contrast and a little glow :D

[biolit]

third is best. maybe a litle glow

this looks really great, but it is unusable as a logo :/ - it wont work on non-black background

I understand, the point however is that although you picked nice designs, almost all logos makes it look like you're part of "the foundry"... especially 4th one. logo designs are all nice but IMHO(i'm no logo designer) you should pick a color not necessarily associated to any part of CG business or go with the black and white and then go figuring the shapes that'l work for that color or gray scale.

People usually tend to avoid black and white logos/design stuff and force colorful shit when they do not want to look intimidating for the user, but I believe this is exactly what you should go for, because corona is a simple tool yet to be developed so you don't need to attract attention with nice colors that'l say don't be afraid to use this, you should go the opposite way reinforcing the beast that corona is "under the hood" you know, intimidate the competition by design :D just a thought... There's nothing to be afraid of, corona is not multinational multicultural corporation that a bad logo could make people turn away especially if it is so good in essence... experiment and if needed, rebrand...
