@narcycst, that video is pure gold! laughed till i almost cried. Someone introduce this dude to the magical world of branding, where not every logo is designed to scream in exact the same proportion... Very funny to see him use examples of the most awfull **** I've ever seen and claim that it's perfect because the proportion fits his ideal. pure gold, I tell you. Al Ries, where have you been all my life!??

BigAl67 said:Thanks for comments all... Narcyst... have now been fully retrained in the art of perfect logo proportions and will revisit my catalogue with a view to making them all fit my eyes (both of them!) That was either a very funny or very disturbing video... maybe both. I think Logopond admin will be sending out a directive to change the template on the Pond to the perfect 2 1/4 × 1 1/4 shape and then the world of branding will be a lot better off.

Though, instead of a post-it like that I might try putting the words "Graeme Coa..." like it's on the top-left of a pieces of paper and have the paper clips sticking onto that. You can have the edges of the paper just kind of fade off.

BigAl67 said:Here's a general question for you all... what's the process for any given logo getting selected for the home page showcase? There are so many brilliant designs on the Pond, and obviously not all of them make it to the home page - so I was wondering how the vetting process works.
