Veerle shares her logo design process with her readers. I’ve been subscribed to Veerle’s blog for some time — nice to see a logo feature.
Should you use a logo or a photo as your Twitter picture? Michael, of Pro Blog Design, has written a concisive post about the subject, which I also addressed on davidairey.com (use your avatar to build brand recognition).

CR Blog list the shameful reality of brand jargon from their fictitious rebrand article mentioned here in the previous talking about logo design post. One more from CR Blog, following the current financial crisis, and looking at the trend of bank logos: the banks have some explaining to do.

Thank you so much for highlighting my blog. Cheers!
I just did a post on the proposed Best Buy logo change, I had to dig all over the place to get the info I did, I don’t know why the BrandNew post didn’t show up in my searches, it would have made my research alot easier (or I may not have even posted about it, seeing that they did such a thorough job reporting on it!), oh well, I just subscribed to their RSS feed anyway.
Thanks for sharing the interesting selection of posts!
http://www.wefunction.com just came out with an awesome logo re-design post featuring a lot of new content that no one else had
these are great! i’m checking out the logo evolution ones right now, awesome stuff
great post David
You’re very welcome, James.
George,
The Brand New site is a great resource. I’m sure you’ll appreciate subscribing to their feed.
Sean,
Ah yes, I viewed that one recently too. Thanks for taking the time to post a link.
I like the old Best Buy logo better.
Thanks for recommending my post David! :D
Oh, interesting roundup, and for veerle’s blog article – I like idea – to use both picture &logo for recognization too :)
Well, the BestBuy logo looks 1000% better. It sort of reminds me of that terrible Topps Tiles logo ( http://www.freewebs.com/claystiles/topps-tiles-logo.gif ). I’d pay THEM to re-design that one ;)
I hope the move back to Ireland is going well for you David…
Hi Andrew,
Thanks for the well-wishes with my move to Ireland. Settling in nicely, and recovering from last night’s football match (shin pads only offer so much protection).
Regardless of how effective the new ‘Best Buy’ logo is, it’s a definite improvement… more contemporary.
