I'm happy I won the community vote smile.gif Thank you everyone who voted!

I would love to have my logo for the Pandora, but as Chip already have said, the final decision lies with the Pandora dev team. IMO, they should pick the logo and style that they think will fit their product best and then tweak it to perfection.

I should mention that when I did my design I was mostly concerned with the shape of the logo and the choice of font. The color, positioning and the reflection was just things I added to present the logo better. I never considered that to be in the final design if it was chosen.

There are many ways you can change and tweak it: Color, sizes, positioning, etc
For example, using the coloring from no 14:

I really dig the font and feeling of the winner but the logo eyeball thing on the left doesn't do it for me. What is it supposed to be? Perhaps if I understood it I could have a go at massaging it a little in the intended direction?

Only Eolair knows...biggrin.gif

It's the sheperd moon Pandora behind the planet Saturn wink.gif

I voted for 14 and 28 (the outlined box), but it doesn't matter.

Eolair, that new logo remake ROCKS!
Simple! Beautiful!! Professional!!!

Great work!!

EDIT: Anyway, a simple suggestion. Save it as .png, and it will have better quality and minor size (I think).

The blue version looks awesome too, but when I first saw it I thought 'Halo' straight away.









Which is a good thing wink.gif

I finally realized what Eolair's logo reminds me of. It's been bugging me for weeks because I couldn't remember. Eolair's logo looks very similar to IGN's logo.

People were talking about the logo that is currently on the Pandora's site being too similar to someone else's logo, but I believe that Eolair's logo is more similar to IGN's. Although I like Eolair's, I'm not sure if it would be a good idea due to this.

I think "ultraportability without sacrificing capability" has to go. It's not just a mouthful, it has peanut butter in it.

I'd remove the outline on the logo, it just doesn't look good with a think black outline.

Yeah, either that or split it onto two lines.

Hmm...I don't have that font. Don't have a high quality version of that logo, either. Well Eolair, any chance you could make these changes so we can see how they look? laugh.gif

Anyone got some nice icons for...gaming, media playback, browsing the web, etc.?

Is the "Ultra" necessary for this kind of product? Doesn't seem very professional in a slogan, and isn't this thing rather far from being small enough to warrant the title of ULTRA[u]-PORTABILITY?

I'd say it's well within the boundaries of ultraportability. In any case, "ultraportable" is essentially a buzzword at the moment and Pandora would do well to come up with something unique.

Anyhoo, I'll brainstorm some stuff and report back.

I thought this would be considered "portable," and ultra-portable would be something that would be REALLY portable, as in could easily SLIP into your pocket and isn't bulky or anything at all.

You do realise it's only around the size of a Nintendo DS?

I think that this black'n'white is perfect. BW logo can be easily embossed (engrave), is simple to recognize (memorize) and looks clear.

EDIT: Oh, and "O" symbol can be easy used as small logo, icon or so on.

(Damn, what is right - easy or easily? Apologize my English level please)

"Around" -- it is bigger isn't it? I would not call the Nintendo DS "Ultra-portable." That's an extreme title, and I don't think the DS is small enough (I know you have to consider what the device is) to warrant that title. The DS is portable, but not quite ultra-portable.

peca - It should be easily. Use easily as an adverb. Use easy as an adjective. The "O" symbol can be used easily. I guess as a check you could omit the adverb: The "O" symbol can be used. How well can it be used? Easily. The "O" Symbol can be easily used (or used easily).
