Someone asked me to make a logo for them based around a name they gave me, so… here it is. Nothing over the top, fairly simple

comments, feedback etc. welcomed (-:

cheers

It’s nice 🙂 Looks a bit like Infinium Labs’ logo. There can be some more work done to the shadows, they look a bit weird to me.

correct me if i’m wrong, but infinium labs don’t own the infinity symbol… so i think you’ve allowed to use it (although you might not want to seeing as it would be pretty similar)

i think thats the site. i would drop the drop shadows. also try blowing it up and try shrinking it, see what those look like. the glossyness might not blow up or shrink well.

m\_andrews808 - link is here [http://www.infiniumlabs.com/](http://www.infiniumlabs.com/).

The infinity symbol has been around for hundreds of years - so you can use it freely - no copyright issues.

However, if you use it the same way as someone else has then you may be in trouble.

In my view yours is nothing like the infinium treatment - so, good work! 🙂

yeah it’d be extreemly strange for a company to have exculsive rights to a widely used and accepted mathmatical symbol!

And it doesn’t look anything like their logo (IMO)! ho hum

the guy originally wanted a gold infinity loop with silver type, here’s the first design if you’re interested 😛

which do you prefer?

cheers

_edit_ thanks mdipi btw I’ll play around with the shadows a bit

well I don’t think its so similar that there’ll be any copyright issues. Different colours, different type, different layout, same symbol, similar type layout (in that there’s a large word with smaller lettering beneth, but thats not uncommon)

I like the black infinity text better, less busy. The infinity symbol should have a tapering, like this one for example:  
[http://www.math.yorku.ca/infinity/images/logo.jpg](http://www.math.yorku.ca/infinity/images/logo.jpg)

Because right now the symbol looks more like glasses.

actually I just stumbled across an issue with one of my clients and trademarks/copyrights. You can actually use the exact logo as someone else as long as you are in differents areas of business as to not confuse the origin of a product or service. In this case if infium labs has this logo copywritten or trademaked then you had better look elsewhere. I know infiniti (the automobile has this logo trademarked but since you are not making cars your cool there). I would go to the trademarks and patents website to make sure [www.uspto.gov](http://www.uspto.gov) if you are in the states if not then dont worry.

It is worth looking into since infium is in the web technologies…You could find yourself on the wrong end of a lawsuit
