RE: eSteem website updated

in #esteem8 years ago (edited)

despite the nice clean look of the site and the idea behind it, I find the logo lacks huge potential .. it's horrible in my honest opinion! It looks like hand drawn, no symmetry nor wise sense in relation to the website itself.

Sort:  

😊 appreciate the comment, what do you mean by lacks potential? Logo represents the brand eSteem although that is variation of it, official one I am sure you saw on my other posts! If you are graphics designer, feel free to make a suggestions on improving it...

well yeah, the project says it's about "Blog, vote, share pictures", does the brand hint to one of these points in any way? for me no! I'm not saying it's a must have but what it definitely needs is a more balanced appearance, a good brand is key. However a logo doesn't make the brand it's the name and the logo in combination. May I ask why the site is named eSteem? and yes I'm a graphic designer, I could help sure, but for that I would need some specifics, key infos for the brand in other to kind of harmonically work. See a brand needs to instantly catch attention, I guess eSteem only catch my attention because of Steemit which isn't bad but it didn't catch my attention for the reason I think it should have catch attention, which is for "Blog, vote, share pictures". I had to read first to find out what it's all about. So there is something the brand kind of lacks, something that kind of hints to what it's about, the connection.

We are in beta so there is not much outreach and marketing outside of the Steem ecosystem yet. Once we are ready to scale, more effort will put towards that, for now, focus is improving user experience and development, gather feedbacks. You can check my blog about history of the project.
