- I have a few reasons why sometimes I design fictitious logos. 1. when inspiration hits me I don't want to forget about it. 2.Usually whenever your thinking of something, so is someone else.3. because I enjoy it.4 it gets my creative juices flowing.5. It may come in useful in the future.

Mikey, Mikey, Mikey, can't you see, sometimes your work just hypnotize me!
swjdesign said on Jan. 21 '09
i was thinking you could make it one step better if you made the black piece look like a trunk as well, if thats possible. just a thought.
Tats Me! said on Jan. 21 '09

NeilMcDonald said on Jan. 21 '09
Whoa! Nice. Next task... design a whole (ele) font round this concept.
That would be pretty sweet ;)

itsgareth said on Jan. 22 '09
Well played
koodoz said on Jan. 22 '09
I just picked up on another factor that makes this logo great! It's the type! The slightly rounded ends of the serifs complement the tip of the elephant's trunk, perfectly.

dikkers said on Mar. 29 '09
This is GOLD. How did i miss this one? Fav'd
I sometimes do fictitious logos, folder on my HD called randomthoughts.ai that they all go into, they rarely make it out alive, but are there for some fun and maybe useful oneday.

gyui said on Apr. 02 '09
not only is it a copy, it's used in a really bad logo.
logomotive said on Apr. 02 '09
^no kidding not only a rip but also terribly done.Thanks for the link epsilon.
OcularInk said on Apr. 02 '09
When will they realize you can't get away with logo theft these days? We got too much back up in this hood! Sorry, Mike, that sucks!

logomotive said on Apr. 13 '09
Hey thanks for the links and comments guys. The guys has not responded to any emails. Probably does not get any hits either or check is emails by the looks of his crap.
hindmarshdesign said on Apr. 13 '09
hmm. I've seen that cssdaddy site before and never noticed that he was actually using your logo! which no doubt can be found in the inspiration section of his website....crazy.
ives said on Apr. 26 '09

logomotive said on Nov. 15 '09
^ LOL thanks. Boy if that don't say it ALL I don't really know what to say or convince people what is going on with our industry.
Hayes Image said on Nov. 15 '09
This was isn't as bad, but still reminds me of Elephont;

logomotive said on Nov. 15 '09
^ I can see that but that does not bother me as much as that can be purely coincidental. The other and that it was allowed is beyond me. In fact I almost feel it is a poke.
logomotive said on Nov. 15 '09
BTW any Brandstacker want to defend this or say "get over myself" come the forward.
dikkers said on Nov. 16 '09
Ohhhhh SNAP is alright... could they have used a better choice of words for their 404 message?
