Kodi logo suggestions and ideas
Yes, I really like aphaits' (red logo) and Narfotic's (skies) latest entries Smile
A coding themed idea with some open-source emphasis and a nod to the original xbox platform mod.

Or maybe because of breaking bad colors, perhaps.

edit: oh and also iOS icon

Hi guys.

I did a couple of quick drafts using the old logo font. I think it's a good idea keeping the old XBMC font, which makes it easier for people to link Kodi with XBMC.

Also, from a skinners perspective, this is very easy to work with.

I like all your submissions so far, but I think xbmc needs a somewhat friendlier brand, not one that feels too "techy". For users like my parents it already feels a little overwhelming at first.

That doesn't mean we need smiley faces or mascots, though. Wink

That one is really cool. The only problem is that it seems to read Kod1

I like this - the i needs to look like an i though, what does it look like in proper case?

Hmm, maybe the 1 accent is too much. Perhaps the 01 binary idea was a bit pushing it.

Here's one without the '1' accent on the 'i'.

These are definitely professional looking.

The splash screens for the new releases, that's where we can get a bit nuts and creative ^^.

(Would like to give some examples, but all I got is my pad :/ )

Edit: The strong point of keeping it simple is that the logo would look really good on t-shirts and hoodies Smile

I agree. The logo should look good in one color. And you could go crazy with it on splash screens, like this.

Try adding the accent to the K instead, like in the icon. That'd look nice.
Now we're getting some where Smile

This is pretty cool, but I think they want to distance themselves from the xbmc brand.

Here it is, I try to lessen the effect so that it won't be so prominent like the first one.

I like it minimalistic. Ideas here:
