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

raja said:

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

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

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!

Same colors maybe? But the Polaroid logo really looks nothing like this one. This one is much more beautiful!

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.

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.

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

koan said:

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.

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!

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