AutomatakLogo Design Contest

#79 #78 - A Train locomotive on the cloud to represent the driving force to promote the collaboration and open source

Thanks
Riza

Sorry, creative, but not a fan of the train. In general, I need something simple with fewer lines and complexity.

Thanks for the feedback, I just upload a new icon, it's a stylized infinity symbol

Thanks
Riza

#99 is really cool. I have a background in astronomy.. cool!

I'm not a huge fan of the font, but that's an easy fix. Try different fonts, upper case, etc.

Hi Thanks for the feedback, I will upload the font alternative asap, in the meantime I want to ask what about we use zodiac formation as a concept ?... if you interested maybe you could inform what zodiac you would like to try

Thanks
Riza

I like the zodiac/astronomy concept is cool, but perhaps not domain appropriate. There are other alternatives that might work well with this logo:

Search google for "graph theory" and goto images.

See how these mathematical pictures look a lot like the zodiac star chart and constellations? Maybe you can transform this into something more high tech, etc.

If you want to modify the zodiac, I am an aquarius.. works with the "A" for Automatak too.

Hi have upload the aquarius design on entry #109 #111

I have looked up the graph theory images and it is looked like star constellation, so I think making actual zodiac formation would be nice, so there is several layer of concept on the design

- the connection / collaboration
- the graph theory for the programming side
- and lastly the zodiac for personal identity

Thanks
Riza

Very cool. I think these are awesome. We may have to tweak them during the final round, but this is great!

I would also like to see #9 with the colors, depth, and gloss you applied to #111.

I would probably use the glossly verison for web and the flat version for print, cards, etc.

Hi Thank you, if you have any changes / tweak you need to see please let me know, I would be happy to do it anytime until the logo is perfect for you.

I have upload the web version of the previous logo, it's entry number #115

Thanks
Riza

#115 and #111 are both gorgeous. We have several days now so no rush.

The Aquarius is cool, but I already have a personal connection to astronomy from past work:

Astronomy also has other cool connotations:

- exploration / discovery
- navigation / leadership
- mysticism / wonder

Very cool stuff.

The only thing I'd suggest for now is to try and play with the name.. maybe no gradient? I like the font.

I also think since astronomy is also considered a 'secret arts', just like the IT security stuff, so having it as one of the concept is a nice thing in my opinion, and with your background with that field its even make it more meaningful.

I have upload some alternative to the text, they're entries #117 #118 #119 #122

Thanks
