- Yes! Other proposed names were Whales, Sea Lions, and Firebirds(?).garbage
- That's a really nice site, showing off the crafting of the logo etc. Love the tentacle and eye.BaskerviIle
- Would of been better green imo, go full kraken.thumb_screws
- Perhaps a dark teal color instead of the pastel aqua.utopian
- Main logo is pretty good but that secondary one is perfect_niko
- Yet more cultural appropriationGnash
- @gnash lol what? The Puget Sound is home to the largest octopus species in the world. It's spot on.garbage
- so americanmilfhunter
- Wordmark’s not great tho, is it?scruffics
- Why did Trump allow this?deadsperm
- Will their arena be called the Kraken House?BaskerviIle
- I don't think Kraken Rum has enough clout to buy the arena.deadsperm
- Seattle CRACKERS would have been more appropriate in these sensitive times.hotroddy
- Lets-Go Crak-ass!hotroddy
- @garbage - Kraken is from another culture’s mythology/religion. Why ok to take from one culture, not another?Gnash
- Because the culture it's taking from is superior not inferior.deadsperm
- As long as there are guidelines !Gnash
- There is feeling of mediocrity written all over this identity. The mark was created by Adidas's in-house team team.utopian
- It's not as much a cultural icon as a matter of language evolution. Kraken is an old norse word from many cultures, not really a cultural centerpiece for anyon.monospaced
- Did they get the Greek community's approval?i_monk
- Kraken were named by Viking sailing into warmer waters and seeing giant squid. The Seattle Squids.********
- why no just "Seattle Hockey Team"?fooler
- Greeks called it something else. Mono, you have zero idea what you’re talking about. As usualGnash
- You can criticize the name, but you'd be missing the forrest for the trees. Professional sports have so many problems.nocomply
- As far as the branding work, I personally think it's great! The anchor in particular is pretty brilliant.nocomply
- I meant *forest. Not, you know, Forrest Gump.nocomply
- I like the colors too. I thought green would have been a more fitting highlight color than red. But maybe that's because the Canucks have green and blue too?nocomply
- Do you really think the logo/mark is great?utopian
- @gnash Not that you had a point to begin with, but you obviously don't know the Scandinavian roots of the city.garbage
- https://www.naha.sto…garbage
- Not that you'll read it, of course. I know you were just doing your usual make-believe at being smart bit.garbage
- I like the look of everything, I just think the name itself is kind of dumb for a hockey team - or any sporting team.stoplying
- Lol at the cultural appropriation comment. *facepalmETM
- LOL at the "Lol at the cultural appropriation comment. *facepalm"
facepalm._niko - Seattle Karen'sBonSeff
- Of course I didn’t have a point to begin with. That was the whole fucking point - to begin with. Thanks for helping make it for me, geniusGnash
- The wordmark is pretty shit imo. Looks like someone just took a shutterstock badge vector pack and changed the textcultmethod
- Yeah. The Greeks called it something else. I didn’t bring them up and their culture isn’t appropriated. Derp.monospaced
- Why insult me? I happen to know quite a lot about MY culture I’m speaking about. And it’s etymology. How am I wrong or not know what I’m talking about???monospaced
- Because facts. Why so sensitive about insults? You have no problems flinging them about to othersGnash
- The only person being sensitive is you when you're called out for being a moron.garbage
- I'm stoked because there are already the following nicknames: Fans will be Krakheads, and they play in the Krakhouse.garbage
- Kind of the way Hawks fans don't refer to Century Link as Century Link, but the Clink.garbage
- And how Trailblazers fans still call it the Rose Garden.garbage
- What facts am I an idiot for not knowing? I'm only sensitive to insults when they're undeserving. I don't insult you.monospaced
- The word "kraken" isn't tied to Greek culture. You're thinking of Clash of the Titans perhaps? That movie gives the impression it's an ancient greek thing.monospaced
- It's just a Norwegian word, and it's not a culturally sensitive symbol.monospaced
- @mono I was talking to Gnash.garbage
- I never said that the worD Kraken was tied to Greek mythology.Gnash
- No, you just made some bullshit attempt to complain about cultural appropriation, and I corrected you. I never even talked about Greek mythos, you dimbulb.garbage
- "Kraken is from another culture’s mythology/religion." Which one?monospaced
- Since we had covered that it's just a Norwegian word and not cultural, mythic or religious, I assumed you were referencing Greek. My bad.monospaced
- It's all gravy baby.garbage

The United States Space Force has unveiled a black and silver logo, following an earlier design released by president Donald Trump that proved controversial.
Revealed 22 July, the logo comprises a delta symbol with a silver border intended to represent defence against "adversaries and threats emanating from the space domain". It encloses a black centre indicative of deep space.

- The explanation is quite over the top, but the logo is not bad I guessgrafician
- It's days ahead of their previous logo.utopian
- I still see the Federation logo in there, but that's just me, designer with trained eye...grafician
- So they went from ripping off the NASA logo to ripping off the Star Trek logo...Live Long and Prosper !fooler
- I hope this was written by you and not the official statementdbloc
- actually it is the official..Centre is very unamerican of a spelling.dbloc
- unbalanced. black centre void of space is too big, imo.imbecile

- in what world does this make sense?Gnash
- why not? a straw going into a cup. nicely executedBeeswax
- is that what it's supposed to be?Gnash
- lol all i could see was a cock, now I could sort of see the straw and lid hehe_niko
- the owner is a girl who designed it in a logo maker app. I want to visit this store if I ever go there.Beeswax
- aww, poor thingGnash
- and this is why you need a prorenderedred
- “Some laughed, some were disgusted. I guess in the end it still worked because that’s the goal of a logo, right? To catch people’s attention,” Irish said.webazoot
- She thought about the shop’s slogan “size doesn’t matter” even before she created the brand’s insignia.webazoot

I always had a fondness for the faux-heraldic ones mixed together with a sexy sans font.Continuity

- I always see these dense logo pages and they look cool on the surface, but when you look at any one logo, they're all awful. Those Los Logos book are the same.BaskerviIle

- There are no good or bad logos - only appropriate ones ;)grafician
- here's a list of appropriate ones on that image...imbecile
- a good logo would be appropriate and a bad logo would be inappropriate but i guess that's too difficult a concept to grasp? ;)imbecile

This logo really triggers my OCD. Why the hell is it slightly rotated? I assume there's a reason.
- Why is it ugly in the first place?nbq
- They don't want you to mistake it for the wifi iconMaaku
- crooked wifidbloc
- I also hate that logo. It's all sorts of wrong.Melanie
- Hand drawn wifi signals surrounded by vomit. This makes clip art look great.utopian
- There's no real reason like most things with Spotify. It was created purely as a streaming platform, they were going for movies but Netflix got in first.face_melter
- The arc of those lines always annoyed me, they look off, like the curve skews right slightly. I just want to grab the adjustment handles and fix it.BaskerviIle
- They tried music instead. Before they signed deals, almost all the music in the catalogue was taken from Pirate Bay.face_melter
- Always though this and Soundcloud could be dramatically improved.
Probably the ol' "we love our original logo 'cause our son/daughter did it!" mentality.ideaist - It's based on the original crappy logo. The O was rotated.
https://1000logos.ne…dbloc - Those default illustrator stroke blobby ends too.MrT
- I never noticed and now it can not be unseen.fooler
- Worst logo for a startup - ever. It makes no sense, no point, no nothing. Spotify has a very good brand team, but they kept this stupid logo for ages...grafician
- It's a "placeholder" logo, like when you do something in 3 minutes, then use for all eternity because ppl get used to it...grafician
- dammit I get triggered everytime I see this logo, even those online logo generators could do a better job...ugggggghgrafician
- I hate this fucking logo, the curves dont' even feel correctmonospaced
- BaskerviIle3
Had a quick go at redrawing it geometrically...it was bugging me
- the wifi lines/waves still looks hand drawnutopian
- the geometry is much betterutopian
- it's weird how your eyes mess with the geometry. I blame the rounded terminalsBaskerviIle
- Good work.
But now it's fixed, it's entirely generic.Nairn - Still looks like someone paid 3$ for it on Fiverrrgrafician
- *shrug.
Question for you all - you recognise the logo, right?
If so, it's done its job.Nairn - I mean ffs, what the hell is a 'spotify' anyway?! ;)Nairn
- Let's be honest though. Any logo can become recognizable with enough marketing bucks behind it. That's not a fair assessment.dbloc
- Let's be honest - most punters don't give a shit. Remember the old GoDaddy logo? How long did they use that for? It's a fair, if a bit bleak, assessment.Nairn
- I'm still shuddering from the implications of that supposed Art.Lebedev AI experiment.
Any shit goes if you want to make it.Nairn - I worked at a big brand consultancy back in the mid 2000s. Daniel Ek came to give a lunchtime talk about the newly started Spotify, we all got free accounts.BaskerviIle
- We paired him up with Citroen, one of our big clients, and they made a deal to give free accounts for streaming music in their cars.BaskerviIle
- you poor bastard - all that time and you're having to stare at that 3°-whatever offset, hahaha. very good!Nairn
- The old GoDaddy logo was done by the fuckin owner from I recall, that's why it stayed so long onlinegrafician
- @Nairn yes, it did the job alright, to piss off designers! They could've made a fortune out of me, but chosen Apple instead to park my subscriptions moneygrafician
- ..be..because of the logo?
If so, I suspect you might be an outlier.Nairn - nice try, but the convergence doesn't aim at the center, and until it does, it will always feel wrongmonospaced

- ooh.

oh! it animates too, haha.Nairn - Love thisdbloc
