Change for Quick Impression and Random Linking

Gallery Chance

Original Logo found in Galleries
Once again I have mucked with the logos found at Outhouse Studios, I pulled the old faithful off the main page and replaced it with my newest colorful animated version and then added a mini-version of the original logo (above).
For fun I made that a link that when clicked on leads to one of the galleries randomly – for those who can’t or don’t want to decide where they want to go. You need to go to the site to try it.
Logos are actually fascinating – at best they can capture the essence of a business/group etc. with just an image … and achieve recognition quickly.
Usually that happens because we see it over and over again. So having had that concept placed clearly into my head recently, I decided I would leave my logo well enough alone – even though I thought it time for a change and time to do better. That was then… March 9, 10, 13
So part of the creative process is about changing one’s mind – opting to move in a direction that isn’t safe or traditional.
There is a logo game at outhouse studios that may for all I know continue, but it is all about making the right impression quickly. It is amazing how quickly one can look at a site(sight) and move on.
