Here is another....

All the ones I have uploaded are screen grabs of original vectors and designed in a vector program... not Photoshop

Also regarding someones comments earlier... reflections and full colour elements like this CAN be printed, not just displayed on the web.
Logos that are required for things like embroidery onto t-shirts etc are usually simplified to one or two colours FROM a full colour logo.

What if you made the outer ring complete and the inner ring the C?

Then in would be OC rather than CO in terms of what you look at first?

It maybe wouldn't work as well though....

It would look like a glorified copyright logo then !

That's what I was thinking, the orange flaming Co with the writing under it looks awesome.

Edit: I think that would also look good on company tshirts. Whole logo on the back, just the oc bit on the front

I actually started with the UJ but thought it looked a bit obvious and the brief kind of hinted towards wanting the colour scheme but not necessarily the flag so I stylised it out with the stripes instead, here's that version if people prefer to see the flag:

Prefer the grey but also prefer the other union jack.

It would seem that the best design IMO cannot now be chosen, because several people have a claim on it, in one way or another. This could get messy.

Yeah. Do your OWN designs people - hardly fair to the guy that came up with the idea only to have half you of you use his as your starting point.

i like Nimzicki's ideas, work on them a bit mate

maybe get a different font that has the same shaped O and C

Damien. · 24 Apr 2009 at 15:54

I really like the one with the rev counter, it's fresh and different. All the rest in this thread seem too similar to the original.

Liking those

Very different, very creative.

Makes OcUK seem a bit like an Ice Hockey team for some reason though :confused:

Another attempt.

Sorry if it seems a bit rude to suddenly come bursting in here rather than being a long-time registered member.

Hang on a second I let the fact that you ripped my idea and then had the cheak to submit it as you own entry slide, but I don't like the suggestion I used concepts from other people's ideas, I can honestly say that I had already developed that logo before even seeing the other two, obviously you can't say the same. As you can see I am happy to receive suggestions on tweaking it but you can't really claim to do that and then put your copy/paste version in as an entry. I will admit the similarity to the logo of some crappy us teen show but it was untentional, btw my logo contains no typesfaces it was made from two circles so no idea what point you are trying to make there?

Don't have a baby about it because it looks better than what you produced. Yours had flaws and I didn't necessarily put it in as an entry, but seeing as it's quite a good logo and many people think so. Everyone's designs are very similar including yours, if you look at what has been posted already. You didn't use typefaces that is true, I did and I think it shows that it's a very important aspect which rounds off a logo. How can you have a logo that doesn't express the businesses website address, considering that is their main method of carrying out transactions? As you can see, everyone is now including the website address but you don't see me claiming that as my 'idea'.

Don't get so serious about it, this is a fun exercise for a competition and it's all about effective execution and people are trying to do that.
