Logos : Best and Worst

well i think it be kool to c what peoples favorite and least favorite logos and why

ill start off:

Favorite: Firefox


Why: i love firefox, i feel its the best browser out there(along with many others). the reason i like this logo so much is bcause it represents firefox taking over the world

Least Favorite: Ebay


Why: i hate the colors, the type and the way all the letters overlap, not a very clean crisp logo, which is how i like them

But ebay isnt a very clean and crisp place is it ? So in that respect the logo reflects what the site is about, its instantly recognisable and does its job well.

Not a fan of The Chase logos at all, but I think Im the only one as everyone else loves them to bits.

Dont have a favourite although the Build bird always sat well with me.

Fav. Nike, not so much for the logo but the products it represents.
Least fav. Google, it's a shit font and the drop shadow just makes it worse.

Great topic, there is a lot of good logos, and even more bad logos. But most of the bigger firms have good looking stuff.

Itried to come up with what I find looks good and bad, and still use fortune 500 companies.

here it goes,

good


not so good

Also, Google's is perfect for them and their brand, which is one of the most (if not THE most) recognizable brands for an internet company.

Good: Amazon. Works on so many levels.
Bad: MySpace.
