- Halloween Logos 2007
-
And Halloween is here! Everyone is dressed to impress in their scariest outfits ready to spook one and all. Not to stay away from the festivities, many of our favorite websites have also jazzed up their logos to befit the Halloween occasion.
Thus we thought to showcase a special Halloween logo collection in spirit of the holiday. The generic cobwebs, pumpkins, ghosts and spiders can be found in most of these Halloween logos. Nevertheless each logo has done justice to the celebration of Halloween. Some adventurous Halloween logos are presented as flash features, and overall each logo has adopted a dark background as well as spooky and amusing visual elements.
All in all the logos are fun, exciting, and creepy…terrifyingly perfect for Halloween! Such exciting logos make the worldwide web a lot more interesting and entertaining.
Happy Halloween to you all, have a chilling and freak-tastic night…Holaa!
Note: Halloween, or Hallowe’en, is a holiday celebrated on the night of October 31. Traditional activities include trick-or-treating, bonfires, costume parties, visiting “haunted houses” and carving jack-o-lanterns. Many cultural traditions hold that Halloween is one of the peak times of the year when spirits can make contact with the physical world, and when magic is most potent.

- LogoBlog Poll 11- The Most Intelligent and Innovative Search Engine Logo
-
And we’re back with the eleventh episode of our LogoBlog Poll.
Last week we asked you to vote for the logo of the Search Engine that you thought is the most innovative and intelligent of all.
Well the results are in and just as we expected Google was the clear winner with 70% of total votes (oh me gosh!!!). Yahoo and MSN tied for second place with 10% of total votes each, whilst Mahalo and Ask took the third and fourth position respectively, grabbing 7% and 4% total votes.
Google is definitely the most widely used search engine on the web. The iconic Google logo changes its look every so often on special occasions like Christmas, the 4th of July, celebrity birthdays and many other important dates.
Congratulations to Google for winning our LogoBlog Poll. A very well deserved win perhaps!
LogoBlog wishes you a happy colorful autumn and Eid Mubarak (Muslim festival that marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan). Until next week, take care!

- The New Adobe Photoshop Logo – what’s with the hole dude???
-
Of all the design applications that are being used commercially, Adobe Photoshop is the most popular, extensively used and widely appreciated. Recently, the Adobe family suddenly decided to change its
Photoshop logo and this face lift has not been successful in achieving appreciation (or even approval!).The old Photoshop logo was a simple one, with just a ‘P’ and “s” written in white, with a blue background. Its size was somewhat more compact and smaller if compared to the new Photoshop logo.
The new Photoshop logo has a distinct, readable font with ‘Photoshop’ in a large font and the slogan ‘See what’s Possible’ in a smaller one at the bottom. The font of the new Photoshop logo is bold and distinguishing and the three dimensional icon seems to present a ‘P’ in its speech bubble like appearance. The logo size is small whereas the font is large and prominent. The new Photoshop logo seems to spread out if compared to the previous compact one. The colors used are the same, i.e. white and blue (in lighter tones, though!), but the new version of the Photoshop logo has black added to it as the font color, which gives a more formal tone to the logo and makes the font prominent.
However, after all the creativity exercise, this new Photoshop logo has received a lot of criticism. Everyone was well associated with the previous, simpler version of the Photoshop logo and the condemnation is basically over the speech bubble. What does the Photoshop logo have to do with a speech bubble? And what is the hole trying to imply? These questions remain a mystery to the millions of users of this golden digital imaging standard. According to many, instead of creating a professional outlook, Adobe has unfortunately come up with an amateur look for its Photoshop logo.
