    Ok, sure i will remove it. Sorry. But you know, it's not unique in your logo either, you can find it it atleast 100 other logo's aswell, since it is made out of two rounded rectangles and a stroke.

    .Cyanide: i like the new attempts and even the clouds you incorperated. Some things that make your design stand out is the mirror effect at the bottom of the logo which is something I like and also like the style of the marks above the H.

    CU_Designs: what i like about your design is the added origninality, and good use of colors. The colors are ideal to what I am looking for the new web site style. something that you could improve on the desing would be to add a minimal reflection of the logo.

    so far it is between these two designs that I will be choosing. I will close contest entries by tonight. Hopefully a few more people will give it a try.

    I was really hoping to see some more originality and use of illustrator to create something original and not just fonts with text effects

    I've deleted my other posts to sum it up in one. I've made this public, asterix, because my design was ripped from publicly and still has not been removed by the ripper even after the person said he/she would remove it. Also, I've been publicly and wrongfully accused by Cyanide of using something found in other logos.

    Cyanide, you wanted to know the name of the font I used. And since the font of the letters 'osted' isn't something I own rights to I gave you the name of that font for you to find it online. Besides the arial font isn't my concept, rather just a part of it. I also stated that the 'h' in my design was specifically designed by me. No matter how simple it is, it was designed by me not found in any other logo as you in your later posts claimed it is. Now I can call your bluff and ask you where these other 100s are since you were bold enough to say my exact 'h' is found elsewhere, thus accusing me of ripping when I have not. You know as well as I do that my 'h' is not found anywhere else, you just wish you came up with it first (what some people would call "hating" on someone's design). And yes I did use 2 rounded rectangles and one regular rectangle in creating it. But so what, I make a lot of graphics using basic shapes. And some graphics I create without using basic shapes. What designer doesn't use basic shapes or create their own? It doesn't make my work or theirs any less unique unless like you they've ripped it from another designer.

    The 'h' is the heart of my concept, which is why I decided to create my own 'h' keeping it rounded for a reason. But I never gave you permission to use the 'h' I designed. I see you even ripped how I positioned it. There's a reason for that, too, why I positioned it it the way that I did.

    Give yourself a little more credit and respect and be different. It's not hard. Now if you want to start building a reputation of being one who rips designs then that's your own business. In the meantime, I'd appreciate it if you removed my design from yours as quick as you ripped it. Thanks.

    CU_designs: lol great, very original, but i like the first h you made better. not sure about the character either, it doesn's seem to stand out, maybe too abstract since i cant really tell what it is

    SniiP3R: good try but not what i'm looking for in reference to style. also what is the icon?

    hoping to get a few more quick entries and/or revisions
    contest will close at 9:00 tonight pacific time

    thanks for all those who have participated

    lol CU, i understand why you got mad at me for using that 'h' that you claim to be yours, and yours only, but using a reflection is exactly the same. Bikerjeg said he liked your font and H, and he said he liked my reflection, so you took 'my' reflection and i 'your' H. You're as original as i am lol. The reflection is not at all mine, there are..well huge amounts of reflections on the net and on whatever, and the H of yours can be found in 100s of fonts on dafont.com

    Anyway, i don't want to 'rip' you, CU, so here is my try. And this one is unique, cos it's from a font.

    [​IMG]

    And also, one with a small add to the 'h' ;)

    To all of your comments --- yea right. Just one lie after another, one craziness after another. I'm going to shut you up real quick. What's the name of the font of the 'h' I created??

    I don't feel like reading an essay right now, but you know, there is often text in a logo, so you might think fonts and logos are kind of...the same...And by the way, i can't believe you're taking it so seriously, especially not since i changed my logo as you wished.

    You don't get it. You ripped part of my style. Thanks for loving how I do things but it doesn't excuse you from ripping my style. Look at your design and tell me what's still the same? Then you had the nerve to accuse me of not being unique. So yes I am taking this seriously. I'm calling your bluff just as boldy as your accusation. You said there are logos with my exact 'h' in it. Then you stated there are fonts with my exact 'h' in it. Stop being vague and provide direct links to where. And if you can't provide such then admit your wrong and stop making these little snide remarks about my 'h' not being unique. Because it is unqiue and I know you know it is. Why else would you make such a big deal about my 'h' having absolutely no proof to back your own statements? No designer would appreciate their designs being ripped from and no designer would appreciate being falsely accused of not being unique. As a matter of fact, it's so serious that it is grounds for being banned at some forums (e.g. NamePros). Too bad they don't do that here.

    Look, here's what i said

    What i said/ment was: There are loads of texts in logos that are rounded(like yours) and have a stroke in the middle, loads of different variations. I don't know if the reason why you won't believe me is because you thought i had a font which was your logo up to 100% i can only find ones that are up to 90% of it. PM me back if you still want the fonts for it, and/or an apologize.

    Mods, you'd probably want to clean this thread up, we'll continue on PM if needed.

    Okay so now you're switching up. Nice try. I'm not dumb, I know there are other rounded fonts. Hello. The name of the one I gave you is rounded. I didn't believe you when you said my exact 'h' wasn't unique. I didn't believe you when you said it can be found in 100s of other logos. I didn't believe you when you said it can be found in 100s of other fonts. I know you were lying. But since you publicly accused me well I kept it public and knew I could easily prove you wrong. Because it is unique simply because you will not find my exact 'h' elsewhere unless like you did (and later changed) ripped it. Now you're trying to say you meant something else. Niiiiiiicccccceee try. And NOW you want to take this to pm after all of this time why now??? Because I called your bluff. Isn't that something. For the record, it's not a stroke in the middle, it's a rectangle. This conversation is over. You lied over and over again and were caught in your lies. You so wonderfully displayed for everyone to see on this forum just the kind of person you are. You should have left it alone especially when you knew you were lying. There's nothing to discuss through pm because this conversation is now over. Case closed.
