contest ???????????? ... looking forward to seeing more of this ... nice one, Nikita !!

Beautiful mark!

This reminds me of the Christmas LP logo I made. (logopond.com/gallery/detail/185796) But, I tried to make it look almost exactly the same so, it wasn't really a redesign LOL. This is nice. :)

Good work. Certainly fits in with the current flat, simple design standard that seems to be making its way around everywhere (that's a good thing). I'm not sold on the colors though. I would try an earthier green, this one is a little too RGB green. Also, to fit in with LPs current palette, why not try a dark brown background? Conceptually, I think that color fits better as well.

Oh, great job, great simplicity. Agree with Sam on the colour palette issue > the logo looks far better with the original LP shades.

nice nikita. i think i prefer the lily pad with the sharp cut in it (but on the darker background).

^^

best version

David...this is the one

If this is on offer, I vote for it also. Nice one Nikita

this is pretty damn solid, Nikita.

Been seeing all these fine renditions but still feel something is missing...I

oooooo, this is getting interesting. nikita, you should leave all of your variations up there.

I kinda like Carlove's 3d approach to the lily's center. How about now, Mike?

not gonna lie, i think i just fell in love with your newest lily pad mark.

OH YEAH!

I'm feeling this. Type is a nice match-up too.

im feeling this Nikita. :)
Nice work!

But can you also put some water vibes on there to see the pond feel on it...
I agree with Sir Mike(logomotive ).

Thank you. I think water vibes are good in illustration, but not in a logo.

This is better than another new logo, congrat!

I like the simplicity, but the flower reminds more of a tulip, not of a lotus flower. The lotus has more petals and is lusher.

Look at this lion: http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/125650

This is getting better and better :)

That's it. Perfect upgrade IMHO. I would love to see this logo on a refreshed LP site.

At least this will be in my gallery. Thank you guys.

i would also vote if favor for this geometrical simplified version :)

If I can be honest, the majority of the versions of this idea I've seen (which includes a version I had a go at, but did not upload) are all leading towards a super delicate, almost feminine atmosphere...as if they're promoting a logo website by day & then moonlighting as a make-up foundation salesperson by night. Is this the correct path?

Whilst I really like the designs that've made that gallery, I feel that they're projecting the wrong image...serenity instead of intrepidness, or longevity. The goal of the logopond redesign (in my interpretation) is not to compete with the likes of dribbble (without logopond, there never would've been a dribbble, etc.) but to take back some of the ground dribbble has claimed since its inception. You need a strong, assertive (not necessarily masculine) symbol to achieve that.

Just my unwarranted, random 2 cents.

Side Note: Please, please tell me that I'm not the only one who hears 'flat design' as the new 'in' trend and it makes my blood curdle.

I've been recently working on my web site and even though I have enough HTML/CSS/Javascript experience to code the site, I've decided to hire a real expert. If one wishes to build everything(logo, UI/UX, engineering, marketing...) by himself, that is absolutely fine, but for the best result IMO one should go with an expert for each category. You did a great job Nikita.

What ever you do please don't end up with just cursive text for the logo. I know that is popular but like all popular trends, it gets old fast. I won't stop coming to Logopond if you do.

jerron, while i agree with you about a script styled word mark not suiting a Logopond rebrand, i couldn't disagree with you more about said style being a 'popular trend' and getting old fast. that seems to be quite a matter of fact statement when it's clearly opinion based. the art of lettering and calligraphy might have made a resurgence, but lest you forget, it is quite an immemorial practice.

I definitely have to go with Colin on this.

I absolutely agree with David's stance and can understand where he is coming from. I get that people are trying to help but I've found all of this crowd 'redesigning' completely disrespectful. It should have been suggested in a private and personal manner rather than going public through other inspiration sites and social media but unfortunately that's the sign of the times of late.

David, it's YOUR site, logo, brand etc. do what you like with it.

^ :)

What's wrong in going public, Gareth?

I tend to agree with Gareth here too, why I've stayed out of it all.

@ru_ferret Read David's 2nd last comment and it should hopefully make sense. If not, imagine the roles were reversed.

I thought that's what made Logopond different.

I think some of you are taking it too seriously. People enjoy doing such stuff, you know. That opportunity of sharing something in public is truly a great sign of our times. For me it's not only about self-branding, its about getting feedback from the guys I love and respect in the first place. That motivates me to do my best. David is ok with this too. Honestly far be it from me to show off.

I think you should just put a frog on top screw the lilly flower. LOL!

JK!

I'd have to agree with Gareth here too. Might not be the right word but it borderlines as an insult to David (owner of LogoPond) to do something like this, and then publish it on his site.

As far as I knew, this site was looking and running fine.

I am not really aware about what the Dribbble references are to be honest. I know I must have missed a big debate or something there. Anyway, that's the way I see it and I am sure that is not your intention, ru_ferret. So then, you do have to consider other peoples views when you are part of a community. And that's what LogoPond is.

We really love LP...:) So much of passion in the above chain of comments.

This is probably the most significant logo of the past year. Wishing all of you a Happy New Year! As always thanks for your participation and inspiration.

Honestly, I think I like it better!
