zig Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I like the old logo much better. The new one looks like any other logo out there and the power button for countless computers. Everything on the new logo looks too generic and I don't like the font at all.The old oneThe new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything on the new logo looks too generic and I don't like the font at all.The old oneThe new oneNew commercial idea (Based on a circa 2004 Goodwrench ad and also Ez Street's post):Stephen Colbert(or someone of that nature): Hey there Mr. Dell Monitior On/Off Button,Mr. Dell Monitor On/Off Button: Uuhh yeah?Colbert: Why do you wear an on/off button on your overalls when you're doing auto repairs?Mr. Dell Monitor On/Off Button: Uhhhh, touch it and you'll find out.(Colbert touches the on/off button and DMO/OB evaporates into nothing.)Voice Over: To find the dealer nearest you, visit GMDellMonitorOnOffButton.com(Before anyone asks, the URL is not real.) The CCSLC's resident Geelong Cats fan. Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends. Sounds like something from a Rocky & Bullwinkle story arc.

gordie_delini Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 i'm in agreement with pat on this one - nice wordmark, not as effective of a logo as it could have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHaMROCK Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 THe power logo is a referance to the binary number system which contains only 1's (a powered circuit) and 0's (an idle circuit) so the power logo is a cobination of a 1 and a 0 showing that this button will turn a device both on (1) and off (0).

STL FANATIC Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 It looks like a G. It looks like a "power on" icon. It also looks like a wrench.Works for me.Can you point out the wrench for me? I can't for the life of me find it (or if I am, it's not sufficent enough for me to go, "oh, that's kinda nice").Wrench or not, the logo is too generic IMO. The GM box may have been dull, but it was recognizable and clearly tied to the company. This logo is a close relative of too many others.I like the script, but most definitely do not like the logo.

Think of a dumbbell, but with C's at the ends instead of solid black circles. Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
