- Which is your favorite art inspired Google logo?
-
Most companies looking for a branding solution will toss and turn losing sleep over the most minute details of their company logo. What many of them are looking for is the “perfect” logo that will be universally recognized. What they don’t realize is that while a logo does help you get noticed, it is the product that really sets you apart. To find that perfect balance it makes sense to look where you find the answer to almost every other question looming today, Google.
While Google was revolutionizing how users navigate the internet, they were also changing the face of their business. Google’s homepage is incredibly simple, incorporating only the their logo, a single search bar, and a handful of hyperlinks. Even with this primitive design users continually flock to the most popular search engine on the internet. Why? because image isn’t everything.
While you may not be able to search for why Google’s logo is successful, you can certainly see it. Google has been known to change its logo possibly more than any other company the public has seen.
Google has kept their logo’s general shape the same, but simultaneously proven that finer parts of a logo really don’t matter. By offering one of the most reliable search engines, with competitive accuracy and volumes of data, Google established itself as a dominant player on the net. Now they have the ability to play with their image, keeping it fun, creative, and interesting; all reflections of Google’s strengths.
Whether it be holidays, current events, seasons, celebrity birthdays, or just random artwork, Google has the opportunity to change the face of their company. Here are some of my personal art inspired favorites. Vote on your favorites:

- LogoBlog Poll 20 – Best Internet Browser Logo
-
And the rivalry has pushed us on to new heights… Yeah. Firefox has undeniably shown a really impressive performance and it has been voted as the best web browser that features pop-up blockers, tabbed browsing, and increased security.
This time LogoBlog Poll 20 was about the best internet browser logo design and we already knew who is going to win… anyway…sigh…
Mozilla Firefox- The Best in all (46 votes)
Apart from the darn good internet browser that it is, Firefox’s branding and logo design have been one of the hottest buzzwords in the cyberspace. How cool is that fox in the logo that took the world of internet by fire spell!
Got 46 votes, OMG! Firefox does it all! Again and again…
Internet Explorer and Safari- Battle of the Brands (17 votes)
Despite both sides making acidic remarks against each other, they finish the game with an equal number of votes; 17.
Netscape: Is it dead? (1 vote)
Once used by 80 percent of the Internet users, Netscape has failed to get more than one vote in the Firefox-dominated era.
Opera: Web 2.0 Logos rock… (4 votes)
Opera web 2.0 logo is creative and beautifully depicts the “O”. Overall, I like it but I think it could have been much better.

OK… ready? We are closing the LogoBlog Poll 19 which was about the best news channel logo. Here are the much-awaited results:
Fox News- Good News for Fox News (23 votes)
Fox News! Good Luck. Congratulations… You guys finally won the LogoBlog Poll 19. Your logo was really good and you deserved to win. The best logo designs are always simple and Fox News logo was the perfect and charismatic blend of two mesmeric colors, red and blue.
BBC News and Al Jazeera- They agreed at least (17 votes)
Oops! They are seen together for the first time… First time on earth? Yo. BBC News and Al Jazeera Logos, being arch rivals in the game for past few years, tied for the second place.
CNN- Will CNN be there to cover this story? (15 votes)
Obviously not. Guess why? Because they can not tolerate standing second to the BBC News logo.
Sky News- First for breaking news… (6 votes)
They are “first for breaking news” but fourth for the LogoBlog Poll. Aye. Skies give thanks to the 6 people who thought Sky News logo was awesome…
France 24- You are still good (4votes)
I think four votes are still good considering your audience is being limited to Europe and Africa. Isn’t it?
Star News- A “two-star” Channel?! (2 votes)
This is not my opinion. That’s what the democracy says… Yeah, Star News got only two votes.
Anyways. Have fun everyone! See you all in the LogoBlog Poll 20!

- LogoBlog Poll 18 - Hollywood studio logos
-
A lion roaring through a loop of a film, a mountain peak ringed by stars or Lady Liberty holding her torch aloft are few emblems, which speak about the significance of logos for Hollywood. Nowadays all the corporations, products, services, agencies and other entities use a sign or emblem as their logo to achieve a unique identity. A logo is not just an image; it is the embodiment of an organization. For some seventy years, these logos or trademarks have introduced audiences to the cinematic delights to follow.
Last month a poll was held on Logoblog, to find out which of the top Hollywood studio logo is more captivating and appealing for the viewers. Our selection comprised of some of the most pioneering logos of Hollywood industry such as Miramax, Paramount, Dreamworks, Disney, Columbia, MGM and Warner Bros.
Well, the competition has been very tough among these big names of Hollywood. Dreamworks and Disney being the oldest surviving Hollywood film company logo, have a tie each getting 21% of total votes. Paramount logo with 19% and MGM with 14% of votes also prove their fame among audience. Followed by Miramax, Columbia and Warner Bros each getting 4%, 7% and 13% votes, respectively.
Dreamworks Logo is an artistic display of glamor, style and sophistication while the impudent Disney logo with a Mickey Mouse holding the clapboard, is a revolutionary emblem in itself. Both the logos has indeed been redesigned a number of times, but did not loose their effectiveness and popularity. Being the most chic, friendly and modern logos of Hollywood industry they are recognized worldwide.
The results show your interest for the polls on our LogoBlog is really hotting up, and I want to thank everyone who has voted on the previous categories.
Congratulations to the Dreamworks Logo and Disney Logo for winning the LogoBlog Poll!

- LogoBlog Poll 17 - Publishing House / Company Logo
-
Writing and publishing is a lucrative and demanding job. Not only it is a powerful medium through which perceptions can be changed, but also, it can be a delightful source for making people entertained and relaxed. But with so many publishing houses and companies existing in the markets worldwide, not to mention the availability of countless books each year, book lovers tend to overlook an important aspect of a book, and i.e. the publisher’s logos. This particular element, the publisher’s logo, is an imperative symbol used in books by publishing houses and companies to make sure that none pirate or re-distribute the published work. It is also employed to safeguard the company’s credibility and books’ authority in the market. Hence, last poll at LogoBlog focused on the publisher’s logos that appear expressive as well as attractive.
Our selection of such logos comprised of Bloomsbury, Random House, Harper Collins, Simon & Schuster, Barnes & Nobles and Scholastic logos. The fact that these publishing houses and companies are some of the biggest in the world, and also, many people are acquainted with their logos made us short list them.
As for the results, Bloomsbury came first in the list by getting 24% of the total votes (it seems Harry Potter did play its magic for Bloomsbury). Next in line, we have a tie between Harper Collins and Barnes & Nobles each having 20% votes; followed by Scholastic, Random House and Simon & Schuster each getting 16%, 12% and 8% votes, respectively.
The Bloomsbury logo is an artistic representation of a feminine figure shooting an arrow. The bow in the Bloomsbury logo depicts the letter ‘B’, obviously referring to Bloomsburg and the leaping figure in the logo can be related to the forward thinking and the expansion of the company.
So, congratulations to the Bloomsbury logo for winning the LogoBlog Poll.
Bloomsbury Publishing Plc is an independent publishing house based in London, UK famous for its literary novels like Harry Potter series.
