how about using some shriner's colors, like a red flag maybe? how about a golf ball on the green as well?

I really appreciate the comments guys, unfortunately, this logo has already been accepted by the client. Both have great criticism. I tried the red and it wasn't working with the green mound. I wanted that to stand out the most. The type was made rigid because the Shriners come from that stone mason background. But I could definitely see a more organic looking type because of the youth involved in this event. Appreciate it guys. I'll see if the client is open to some more changes.

^ scrub that link. :/

firebrand said:

Reply from 99 designs: We're sorry, but the reported design doesn't have any part that has been directly copied from the original.
Therefore, there is nothing we can do about this.

Are you kidding me?!!?!?! "Plagiarism, as defined in the 1995 Random House Compact Unabridged Dictionary, is the "use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work." -- Taken from Wikipedia "OR CLOSE IMITATION" Give me a break!!!

this is killing me? Has someone copied my concept?

firebrand said:

Danny, the offending logo has finally been removed. It was identical apart from the flag had been replaced with a tree. The plagiarist also stole another idea from Logopond yet somehow escaped suspension from 99 designs.

dannydomo said:

I see, thanks for looking out for me guys. I didn't know plagiarism for logos even existed! Do you know the designers name?

> yet somehow escaped suspension

"escaped" ? you make it sound like he was a sneaky lucky singleton, the only one who ever managed to trick ruthelessly effective, blazingly fast and ever watchful copyright protection team at that site into not suspending his account

did he win the prize?

BTW Your Bro's talent is off the hook.

Thanks logomotive, he may be working on Neil Blomkamp's (district 9) next movie here in Vancouver. I hope he gets the gig.

Now Back to these thieves. How do we stop them? can't we write to the sitemasters and get them to remove their accounts? Giving up their identity may be illegal but something at least..

1 for Vancouver :-)

That was "(plus) 1 for ...", but the plus got eaten

dannydomo said:

thanks epsilon. like your stuff. Do you have a site?


Oct. 22 '09

epsilon said:

I do, but it's largely devoted to the software, not design. It's the 2nd hit in google for my first last name.
