@ClimaxDesigns Uh it says %22In use by client%22 and this logo is in fact in use by client. It was sold and is being used by the person it was sold to.**It also doesn't resemble the Sobe lizards at all.
@ClimaxDesigns I respect that you're the site owner and that you have an opinion, I really do. But, I've never seen anything from Sobe that looks even close to this. Also, I can't hardly tag this as %22For Sale%22 when it's been sold to someone.
Sorry Tabitha, Sobe immediately popped into my head and the commercial David mentions. Sobe is not a small company. Your client may be at risk to be sued. You do them a disservice not to research this more. Especially when someone like David, who's reputation is impeccable, points it out.
Sorry Trish, it really isn't anything like the Sobe lizards. I DID in fact do my research and I know very well that Sobe isn't a small company. I don't live on Mars.**And I could argue a little further on a few points that you've mentioned but I would probably be banned so I'll stop right here.
Girl, we never said it was their logo. We only said the Sobi lizard had been used to make a 0 like the one you have above. Your logo could be considered derivative of the idea used in the commercial. The idea does not have to be a logo or trademarked for them to sue for copyright infringement. All they need to prove is they came up with the idea first and your design is derivative. That's it.**There may or may not be a case here, but if you do get sued (or your client) and lose, you'll lose what you've gained so far and it will take you twice as long to get back to the same place. We are trying to look out for you, not be mean.**For the record I like your design and execution, just be careful.
Ok not to be that guy (saying that a lot lately) but this is the further from Sobe than almost all other reptilian logos I've seen.**%22sigh%22:http://www.adlerfels.com/static/37/Image/Lizard_Black_RGB.jpg**%22double sigh%22:http://www.epecho.com/images/large/lizard%2520logo.jpg**%22triple sigh%22:http://www.seeklogo.com/images/C/Candy_Apple_Lizard-logo-0AE8DAD908-seeklogo.com.gif**Heck, just google %22Lizard logo%22 yourself. She would not ever get sued for this. There are a LOT of categorical difference between this logo and the rest of those/Sobe. Mostly, though, this logo is just much more clean than Sobe and others who opt for a more organic and natural style. This isn't even in the same ballpark. **This is a *great* logo. She's one of the few Brandstack designers with an imagination and to discredit her for this is ridiculous.
Being happy to have missed all the discussions here, as it happend before my time, I can concentrate on the logo itself. I just wonder: what happend to the after legs? Somehow my brain is missing them.
Lets Discuss
They are all nice, Tabitha, but this one is my fav. What font is this again? It's on the tip of my tongue but I can't remember it!
ReplyI like these color combos. I think I like it on the dark gray better though.*Well done.
ReplyThanks everyone :)%0D*@ethereal : The font is called Museo.
ReplyDuh! I just checked and I own it! :) Guess I'm an Airheady.
ReplyReally sweet design! :)
ReplyIMO I don't think it looks like the Sobe Lizard at all. You could have also named this one EGGuana (see the egg).
ReplyDavid, you mean %22this%22:http://popsop.ru/wp-content/uploads/pepsico_sobe_life_water.jpg one?... they (the lizards) don't look the same at all...has it changed since you last saw it?
Reply@Mike.. haha.. yeah.. or Eleguana... (see the trunk?)
Replyyeah with a tagline Guana Egg? or peanut LOL

Reply@David I think she tagged it as client work because it sold.
ReplyWhoops she beat me to it :P
ReplyIt's not similar in any way to the Sobe lizard http://www.thedieline.com/blog/images/2008/12/23/sobe.jpg
