I'm trying to make a logo but for some reason it looks familiar, tried reverse image search and got nothing. Has anyone seen this or anything similar?

No and probably for a good reason too. That's an horrific logo.

Also use more colors, maybe triadic. Utilize more of the empty space. The randomness looks good imo

Digital ocean?

Please don't use that.

@delegate212 that's a really rough version. Any tips on how to improve it?

@PrivateGER of course not... I still have to finish it............... I have to add one more block

@theuser thanks for the tips, I'll be sure to use them

That splatter of random squares is supposed to be a logo? :0

Please don't use those horrible random rotated blocks. It looks like absolute shit.

@PrivateGER Show me your horrible logo so that I may point and laugh at it on the internet

@theuser You are free to do that, scroll through my profile. However, I realize it looks like shit.

@theuser don’t be a sore loser. This is the internet and if we think your logo sucks we are going to tell you. I suggest you reach out to a designer and ask them for advice, or post online in a design forum for advice. Just off the top of my head I can already tell you that there are way too many elements in the logo and I have no idea what it’s supposed to be. Why the colour? Why so many squares and why in that specific order? Look at the logos of the most recognized brands in the world.

@52cal It's not @theuser's logo.

@AlmondSauce ah shit, well, it sounded like he was trying to defend OP’s design by saying “show me your logo so I can laugh at it too” and that’s why I said what I did :p

@52cal Yes, on the Internet we laugh at someone's unfinished logo for no apparent reason.

@1337M0nst3r
You’re trolling, right?

There is no symmetry in block placement, half of them are out of focus and how are you suppose to relate a brand to randomly placed blocks? Unless you’re Minecraft that is.

@theuser oh, there is a reason we think the logo sucks ;p not just for no reason. You don’t see anything wrong with that logo?

@theuser you’re aware this is devRant, right? The place we all come to so we can vent about shitty code, practices, work environments etc.. Mostly while laughing.

While I haven’t watched it I’m assuming it will give you enough information as to why your logo is poor given it’s 2 hours long.

@52cal search "random squares logo" on google images, you will find some

@PrivateGER hmmmm.... better use them to fund a toilet company then

@theuser i got tons let me grab them from the recycle bin

@52cal @delegate212 ......... think Microsoft will sell Minecraft soon?

@delegate212 see you tomorrow when I finish it

How dafuq u call this a logo???? Like rlly

You should put the squares equally on both sides and reduce the gaps so it looks more like an arrow.

@theuser no one has been laughing at his logo. It has been just saying things straight.

🍿

@1337M0nst3r I searched for “random squares logo” and found a lot of shit logos and stock images. Some of the more decent ones had only a couple squares and were deliberately placed and coloured (far from what this logo is). The logo for Windows for example, is simple, the colours are recognizable and it represents the product.

This could turn into a really good logo with a few tweaks (note: I am not a designer, and have zero credibility in this area. Absolutely do not take this as if I know anything, this is just what I, a backend dev who does literally no design work, would do):

Straighten them all out. It looks wonky with the rotations. If they are all parallel, it adds a modern and intentional feel to it.

Consistent spacing. They seem to follow a certain line/curve. It doesn't look random. At most, it looks like a standard humans attempt at random (we humans are bad at randomization. Like real bad.) The line is good provided you can tie it in to some other visual element or meaning. But the spacing is eratic. The pattern looks structured, but the spacing is random and insane. These two things are competing.

Keep them all in focus, one consistent color, same shape. Make them identical to the point where only the placement is different. This makes the placement feel very, very intentional and interesting

Hahaha why are some squares randomly out of focus? And why is it so unsymmetrical? Everything about this post is hilarious
