bogdanv said on Jul. 10 '07

this is just beautiful!! Improve the kerning, IMHO, the arm of the r almost joined with the one from the t! But i really like the mark!

KGB said on Jul. 10 '07

this is pretty, but I think the arc of the wave is a little too strong...seems forced. Also, how does is print?

admarcbart said on Jul. 10 '07

Another great concept of the northern lights.

I really like this.

tomonet said on Jul. 14 '07

I'm actually in line with KGB, its a gorgeous logo but how does it print?

firebrand said on Jul. 14 '07

Spectacular!

raja said on Jul. 14 '07

nice colours...I'm liking the 'N' hinted in the mark

It's 2007, this mark will print just like it looks.

northcolour said on Jul. 16 '07

It prints fine. Obviously not on white, but all our headed paper, business cards etc have been digitally printed on black and it looks just as you see it on the screen here. :)

Reminds me a lot of the Polaroid logo. But I'm not suggesting it's a rip-off.

Im not seeing the Polaroid association. Care to explain on this one further?

Nice work!

sdijock said on Jul. 23 '07

Black background, same rainbow color scheme and a san-serif font knocked out against a white background. What's not to see? However, as I said, I'm not saying it's a rip-off, I'm just making a comparison. I actually like this logo a lot.

theuprock said on Jul. 23 '07

I see where you're coming from with the Polaroid thing -- same type styling, same white on black, and the rainbow integration -- but like you, I also don't think it's a rip.

Whoever said the wave was too sharp, I agree, maybe make the arch more flat.

sharky_spa21 said on Jul. 24 '07

Nice, a good colorfull abstractrion of an aurora! :)

koan said on Aug. 07 '07

Everyone's here focused on the colored aurora, and I think it's cool too... But I wanted to discuss about the lettering: I think the curve is too strong so that it's too far from the lettering and I think the font you've used is a little bit too "common" if you see what I mean... Maybe you could dare more with another font (a thinner one?).
It's just my own opinion and It's only a feeling, I'm sure you've already tried and you've managed to use the best one you could.
Good job dude.

fabiland said on Sep. 13 '07

Nice!!! congratulations good job :)

emesghali said on Nov. 16 '07

this logo is amazing in color but i believe logos that are this dependent on color aren't always the best since a lot of times you end up seeing it used in black and white just as much, where its not so cool anymore...

regardless...

GREAT JOB!

ulahts said on Feb. 07 '08

Amazing logo!

bbx said on Feb. 09 '08

Superb use of colours. It's not as simple as it seems. Furthermore, this mountain shape is very effective. Great idea.

mo said on Mar. 17 '08
