New Art News Blog Logo
I have decided to go with this logo for Art News Blog. It's basically Logo 1 from the logo post here, with a few small changes. It's not bright, flashy, or complicated, which is what I was after. I wanted it to sit quietly in the corner and do its job without drawing too much attention to itself.
Thank you very much to those that emailed me and left comments on the Logo Help post. Christine K, Douglas, Jafabrit, Coxsoft Art, Matt, David, Julianna, Tina, A. Tuzztimonial, Nicholas, Tammy, BigRock and Anonymous all helped in the decision.
Also, thanks for the support and suggestions regarding the petty letter from the art magazine that seems to be afraid of the blogosphere. But no, I don't wish to take it any further. I probably needed a new logo anyway ;-) ¶ 5:05 AM

I don't think there was much they could do, or you, but it has cost them a few customers which is more of a loss for them than it is for you.
Like the new logo. Good job. And thanks so much for the work you put into this blog. It is a great source of information. Not to mention a source of inspiration for someone like me who is working on a much smaller art blog.
A simple logo is the way to go in my opinion. I've seen some terrible examples that are so complicated, how can people identify with them?
Also with web design I think it's important to let the content 'rise above' the page, in other words if you are going to 'pimp' anything it should be the information not the layout. A simple logo won't over power the post itself.
