joder said:

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:

@ 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:

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

What about PedoBoom? or Boom-o-phile? Hmm, I may use that one.

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

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


Jan. 06 '09

LoGoBoom said:

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

nido said:

... but you are sexy!


Jan. 08 '09

LoGoBoom said:

...I'm also strangely uncomfortable.


Jan. 08 '09

nido said:

that shows in your face too...


Jan. 08 '09

logomotive said:

Yes, but not as sexy as your logos bro.

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.

What do you guys think? Inspiration or plagarism?


Apr. 28 '09

Houston-we said:

Well, if that's inspiration, then I guess he owns you some money? I think he just changed the letters and uploaded the logo as if it was his own. Look, even there are also 4 documents put in the same direction.

sdijock said:

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:

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:

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.


Apr. 28 '09

Houston-we said:

Good news, Glen! :)


Apr. 28 '09

sdijock said:

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


Apr. 28 '09

logoboom said:

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.
