For the Epic Logo Challenge

Where deviantART was thinking Sega and IBM for their new mark, I was thinking Atari and Apple. I think this leaves for a cleaner design, and I fed this same inspiration into the logotype.

I really like how this one came out.

The nice thing about having Atari in mind, is that the Atari logo isn't a far cry from dA's previous----of which has always reminded me somewhat of an upside-down "Phi" symbol. I took both notions and ran with it.

EDIT
My apologies for having not read the rules correctly. It was late when I looked them over. Here is my single entry, black Logo on white background. Thanks!

Those of you missing the color version, find it here: Oops!

There is no greater feeling.
Then that of possibility.
This even relates to the Ant.

really nice one...

and now it's definitely an upside-down turned "phi"
and i like it
:iconsnowmask:
I rather like that it sort of resembles a space ship :giggle: Ties in with the "geek" aspect, I suppose? Either way the clean lines certainly work for the design, and I like very much how it has faint resemblance to the old dA logo, though more sleek and "revamped" :heart:

Indeed. I don't know that the line values are exact the to the Phi character, but there's no denying it. Conversely, most people wouldn't be thinking of this, I'm sure, as they take it in... and even I, knowing it, see "deviantART" before I see anything else. I think that makes a winner! ;P

Thanks so much for the kind praise!

mmm. It does look a little UFO-ish, doesn't it? Hah, that rocks!
Yeah, I very much wanted to keep a tie to the old design---not so much because I don't like change, but because i just really think the previous had more to offer in terms of originality in design.

Appreciate you taking the time to leave some praise!

I for one actually like the old design, it was just easy on the eye, and perhaps I've just spent so many years looking at it. That or I probably had rather naive taste for design when I was 16? :lol:

All the best with the contest! Yours is actually my favourite one so far ;)
