    Well browsing here on DP, I have found some very interesting stuff.

    The favicon of Google and the logo of Guruji.com are basicly the same, so who stole from who ?

    Here are the pics so you can get a better view: http://www.dnbastard.com/who-stole-from-who/

    What do you think ?

    Google's new favicon was designed by André Resende, a computer science undergraduate student.

    Maybe I should be designing new logos and hope to be included on those chosen logos. They we're just simple.

    I find both the logos quite different from each other in the use of colors, unless of course you consider the use of a single letter in commonly used font/style to be proprietary in nature! :eek: :rolleyes:

    I don't think they are same. As per definition of 'Copyright of Logo', shape, look, color all of these 3 must be same (though size is not a matter). The color of the 2 logos are not same.

    i also think that they didn't copy anything just maybe the concept just accidentally looks like each other but google as a big site earning so much money. I don't think that they will steal something like a logo haha ^^

    Do you need to borrow my glasses look close get a magnifing glass on google the top part going towards the bottom part sways to the right and guruji sways to the left. They are completely different one is in a box and one is in a circle. and different colors. google circle is divided by 4 parts guruji is divided by 2 parts.

    they don't look alike. it is not because it has a G that it looks alike.

    I would not think Google would be stealing a logo?

    I bet Google won't steal something like that. And it's not even the same with the "G" in guruji... :)

    Hmm bit confused, yes they have the colour wrapping, but how are they in anyway related or the same?

    Another vote for - 'they don't actually look much alike' from me.
