    This is a revision based on some earlier feedback from the original submission. Removed the 'feet' and now its just relying on the custom 'orb' logotype and wording.

    I can't help but feel this is a little soulless, especially after seeing the 'little feet'. No denying its clean and smart, but feels empty.

    There was an element of relevancy for the 'feet', they helped provide a subtle reference to being 'held firm', solid grounding, stable and reliable.

    Also think the 'feet' makes this more brandable and ownable...

    So personally now can't decide : feet or no feet. :)

    I liked the feet - they made it look like an actual orb/ball/thing, being supported on something. Now all I see is an abstract bicycle...

    Don't know which one I like the best, but that font is boomin.

    The font is one of my personal all time fav's, it's Effra from Dalton Maag... it's just stunning.

    Maybe it is just my own opinion, but the feet made the mark seem less professional to me. I get your concern that this version isn't as "soulful". But anytime you put "feet" onto something like you did, I think you turn it into a character. For instance, I can't help but see a "Kirby-like" figure when the feet are there. And I never played a video game with Kirby or anything. Or, it also looks a bit like one of those old alarm clocks.

    Maybe there is something in between the feet you had and the "soulless" version here. Just my .02. You've certainly thought through a lot of this more than I have, I'm just going on first impressions.

    Christopher : As you have no idea what the brief is, its always tricky to make comments based on anything other than first impressions and gut instinct.

    But these first impressions, even if you dont have the brief are just as valuable to me, as it catches the position 'most' clients will be in, seeing the logo without a brief to study it and make sense of.

    Hence thank you for your feedback. We are still debating the feet :)
