Just perfect LGB.

nexqunyx said on Jan. 01 '09

Memorable! Cool stuff:)

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 01 '09

A pretty sick, just perfect, jig inducing design! Couldn't ask for a better response. Thanks guys.

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 01 '09

And I almost forgot "memorable". Thanks nex.

logomotive said on Jan. 02 '09

Oh and file this too Glen, "not too shabby".
Nice color,type and mark it's clean as a whistle bro. good one.

OcularInk said on Jan. 02 '09

Very memorable indeed. Love it, Glen.

firebrand said on Jan. 02 '09

Great, Glen.

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 02 '09

Thanks Mike/Kev/Roy (maybe this one should've been my personal logo).

nido said on Jan. 02 '09

and it has a much better looking face too ;)

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 02 '09

Here's lookin' at you...nido.

joder said on Jan. 02 '09

Did you end up not using it cause it felt to "business like" (for lack of a better term) for a personal/designer mark. Bet you could sell it off no prob.

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 02 '09

@ joder: it came down to the 2 names (LoGoBoom and Logophile). I was torn but close associates swayed me to go with LoGoBoom because it was more fun and not as conservative (as you alluded). I still like both though.

logomotive said on Jan. 02 '09

besides it sounds better than logophile might be considered as one that abuses logos.;-)

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 02 '09

And you're welcome to it Jon...I won't fight you for either of those.

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 03 '09

Now you sound like a client wilson!

logotivity said on Jan. 05 '09

the folder tabs really make this one... it's great!

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 05 '09

Thanks for the comment logotivity

sdijock said on Jan. 05 '09

Another great addition to your portfolio. Kudos Glen!

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 05 '09

Hey thanks dijock!

ignari said on Jan. 05 '09

I think the face is equal to on of the delicious icons

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 06 '09

I would agree that the face is not really unique. It's so simplified.

nido said on Jan. 08 '09

... but you are sexy!

LoGoBoom said on Jan. 08 '09

...I'm also strangely uncomfortable.

nido said on Jan. 08 '09

that shows in your face too...

logomotive said on Jan. 08 '09

Yes, but not as sexy as your logos bro.

optimusdesign said on Feb. 14 '09

great work.

LoGoBoom said on Feb. 14 '09

Thanks nido, mike, optimus!

jerron said on Mar. 20 '09

Are you the same poster that posted that? If so nice to see a good logo found a place, and if not, shame on the steal.

"This project is awarded" Oops!

logoboom said on Apr. 28 '09

No, I certainly did not post that. Thanks for the heads up numerous.

logoboom said on Apr. 28 '09

sdijock said on Apr. 28 '09

Pretty close to call Glen. Not to belittle your logo, but the basis of it (a box with files in it) is simple enough that it's possible that the other designer happened upon a similar execution. However, with that being said, taking into consideration the size and perspective of both boxes and files as well as the amount of files (4) and the overall shape of the file tabs, I'd say that it's pretty much dead on with yours - so much so that I find it more than just coincidental. I say it's a rip.

itsgareth said on Apr. 28 '09

Glen, have you laid the two images over on another in photoshop with say 60% opacity? If the lines match up then its more than a coincidence if perspective is identical IMO.

logoboom said on Apr. 28 '09

I emailed back and forth with the designer. She was very professional. She agreed to change her design and even showed me two new comps that she was submitting to her client explaining the conflict. So seems like this one ends well. Thanks a lot guys.

sdijock said on Apr. 28 '09

So I'm assuming it was a case of "borrowed interest" on her part and that she admitted to it?

logoboom said on Apr. 28 '09

She claimed to never have seen this. I did not press the issue since was very quick to adjust and to explain to her client. Can't ask for more than that I suppose. Appreciate, again, the comments.

JF said on May. 25 '10
