Hello!
I'm looking for some good logo research sites about trends in logo design and stuff. A few years ago theere were a lot logo's with a drop kinda shape (a square and a circle combined...)I need some examples of logo's with a shape like that..
does anyone know any good sites?
Thanks!

you're a disgrace to the word design.
Deisgn is and should not be about trends. That's where poor design comes from.
Don't copy, create!
A good logo is about an idea not a look. If the company you work for or a client wants a logo that is 'trendy' tell them to fuck off.
No good logo has ever come from copying another logo.
To prove my point. Look at the 'drop shape' you talk about.
Look at the whole Quark logo/Scottish Arts problem. Both are pretty shitty logos, quark being slightly worse because it's newer and therefore more generic.http://www.theregister.co.uk/200…
Neither are a good logo as they are not speciic to that brand.

what baskerville said only with a back-handed slap and a direct order to sit facing the corner sucking your thumb wearing a cone shaped hat with a big initial D on it.

didn't mean it to sound harsh, you could be researching the problems with following trends, it's just something that annoys me in design.

don't forget, during the early stages of this decade there were an awful lot of swirl-based logos happening.
...and then the bevel and emboss filters were used frequently
...and then everything went a little 3D

square and circle? Like the old/new Quark logo...
- Xentic0
yes, like the old quark logo, but without the circle inside of it.
