Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | First Anonymous Coin | First X11 | First DGW

There NEEDs to be one extra added to this.

Using the current logo #1....BUT with the new "D" from #6. Evan posted a quick mock up of it a few pages back. Who made the current logo? we need to contact him to get him to correctly swap out for the new D from #6. That with the written "DARKCOIN" is perfect in my mind, and needs to be an optioUSA n.

I personally think #6 is awesome. But feel we also need a "coin" .. throw at D on the existing darkcoin Cool

Also please note: to ensure a fair vote, only one version of each design is included. Your vote for a particular design will count for all variations on that design.

I'm expecting that an official coin graphic will be created from whichever logo is chosen, so no need to add them to the vote.

If anyone has some free time, it'd be great to see mockups of all 10 candidate logos as coins.

I feel like people are going to just vote for whichever one looks "coolest" and thus pick number 6. But I don't think it best represents DRK and is somewhat shortchanging the project. Darkcoin has a lot of innovation going on in all areas of cryptocurrency, not just privacy. DRK is clever and sophisticated. Thus, the logo needs to be clever and sophisticated. Some of the other choices much better exemplify this, but won't win. Maybe that's okay though, as the logo's purpose is more just to be appealing to the average person than fully embodying what the coin is.

I vote 6 also, but I'm not going for it as the coolest. I think it looks sophisticated, smart, and also edgy. DarkCoin is a cool coin clever and sophisticated as you say, but it's also has that slight edge, slightly almost underground feel to it due to DarkSend and other innovations.

What ones do you prefer watuba?

I guess it could be seen as sophisticated, and definitely edgy. I just think it also looks a little "young" and less trustworthy. I actually like number 8 now for the reasons stated above. It's certainly not as cool or "edgy" as number 6, but it's safe, clever, and still appealing. If I were going to ten different companies to entrust my wealth with, I would pick number 8 or 2 far ahead of the others. Then maybe 4 as a distant 3rd place.

The young or cool look doesn't seem to bother anyone for other currencies (e.g. Doge). However, I feel that the #6 looks rather professional and sophisticated. You say that everybody will go for the look, but so are the consumers, the packaging makes the product more appealing.
