holy fuck.
well i guess you don't need to tell us the client is slightly literal and i'm guessing a magnifying glass and a compass were included in the initial concept phases of the brand.
the arrow thing is a cliche but not in a bad way (cliches are there for a reason in my life especially cliche iconography), it just needs to be worked through more. made more unique.
also, i question the need to use 4 different colours. it seems like a typical committee decision, you know the whole "yes, according to market research mulitiple colours will infer the expanse of the product" kinda shite.
still what the fuck do i know. it's probably awesome.

yeh. I could be wrong, but it feels like a google swastika or a pinwheel. The purple feels particularly harmful to me.
It at least needs a drop shadow, gradient, and a 2.0 shine.

It looks Windows-esque, so it must be very professional!

LOL @ asking for a critique for a logo he didn't create.
I have this "friend" who...c'mon! It's yours, isn't it!?
- I am sure you can image some reasons where a person would want critique for some work he didnt create ;)inv
- But what if he really didnt make it? That would mean you're just a dick.CygnusZero4
- Would it? What if i sayd that i work for the company that has this logo, and I want it changed for the better?inv
- Is it so bad to get some "professional" appinions on it to back up what i already know?inv
- I was just curious...and OBVIOUSLY you don't get the humor, guys. Fucking laugh, jesus.monospaced
- I ONLY asked a question; I'm not a dick. And I can't imagine why you'd ask to critique someone else's logo.monospaced
- he's calling you a potential dick, com'on get a laugh! jesus.goygoygoy

Not enough magnifying glass.

Thanks for the feedback fellow qbners. Really appreciate it. You can't hire people to get this kind of "straight up" response.
I think something needs to be done with this logo. Less swastika and more web 2.0. Since I've already stolen your precious time, what kind of concepts would you pursuit for a search company. Other than the obvious magnifying glass and compass ;)
- Anything except arrows and Google's color palette. Throw those away and start over.monospaced
- Great...thanks..now I have...nothing ;)inv
- But, YOU didn't design it, remember!? hhahahaaaamonospaced

Great logo, imo. This thread needs less QQ.

"More web 2.0"
*Shudder*

I'll comment on that one in the thread. The above is actually the old logo. The one on top is supposed to replace this one.
- monospaced0
The old one is MUCH nicer...it actually feels more designed...I don't think taking Google's color palette and cramming in a condensed upper/lower sans is the solution.
Oh, and using a shovel (spade) is a great idea. At least it's original.
