Point taken.

boring(!) one from their crack intro

I don’t really know what qualifies as boring logo.
Wanna have a poll about TRIAD logo being ‘boring’?

Like: Classic TRIAD logo is:

a) boring
B) iconic

iconic and boring are not mutually exclusive

What qualifies as boring is a personal preference. What is boring for me seems to be exciting for someone else, and vice versa. So that debate could go on forever.

What is interesting is if a logo works on a technical level and how it is remembered for centuries, or not.

I'd like to see a rule being added; Transparency about using fonts.

I've seen some entries which are completely based on a font, and some that are handcrafted. That's kinda unfair (if kept a secret).

For example using a font:


Vs handcrafted type


(@groepaz, you mentioned it somewhere before. The font issue sure was addressed, but we decided to keep the doc short, and not go into too many details).

Why a rule and not just let voters decide?

Lazy logos are going to be voted down anyway.

Voters cannot ‘decide’ if it was self crafted. One could only know if it was mentioned.

The voter should know what he/she is judging. If the Carillon logo was handcrafted, I’d rate it very high. But knowing it’s a font conversion, the appreciation is much less.

‘Lazy logos’ is interesting, making something look simple, and good, is usually the most difficult :)
