Very slick, love it.

This really is my overall favourite. Amazing samfisher. You are very creative.

Done. I think it's time to call in the judges for a vote.
Very well done samfisher

After going through them all, this is still my favorite.

I like the plain logo in the top left very much. However I think the more elaborated version with the green thing is dated and fussy - it reminds me of making pottery and it's collapsing. The dark background fading to black at the edges with a dotty texture is very dated also.
But I would definitely like to see the logo and name in a fresher context, I think this could be the best.

Thanks for all the comments!
@voochi: That's a matter of personal preferences, but yeah we should try different versions! You prefer flat and modern? Here it is.

Even better.

We're starting to narrow down some stuff internally. We're doing a sort of "nomination" process within the team right now, because asking everyone to vote on 50+ images is hard to do. A lot of images are modifications of others so those might just count as a "group" or something, maybe. We'll have a big community poll with those nominated images to get even more feedback. We haven't nailed down exactly what we're going to do, but I imagine we'll at least be able to whittle it down to one or a few strong choices in the near future, but it sure is hard with so many great submissions!

I know my post was deleted for being frivolous - and rightly so, it was! - but there was a serious point in terms of the shrouded/TV 'K' in the above and the TV-faced 'Cordy' character from the games. I guess there's nothing truly unique, so it depends on whether such a comparison is either important or likely to be made by anyone (e.g. the 'reminds me of...' posts previously).
I suppose I should actually have made that point instead, then

@Basje: I'm not sure if I prefer the modern look or the old one, but I guess modern goes well for everybody.
3D version, just having fun!
Loading icon/intro or something?
RE: Kodi logo suggestions and ideas - pipe1801 - 2014-09-11
Hi samfisher, just signed up just to congratulate you on the many great designs and for one suggestion regarding the above loading icon.
Since the green part of the logo was previously called a rubber band, maybe you can make the modern flat logo transform into the first version, let it 'wobble' a bit (like a rubber band would) and then go back to the flat version of it. Is it obvious that I like both versions of it?

Personally I hate the current trend of so called modern flat ui's (nothing modern about any of them in my opinion, but oh well I seem to be in a minority), but this spinning one is actually quite cool
Is at all possible to so a similar thing with the 3D rubber band version?

Not bad ... not bad at all :-)
RE: Kodi logo suggestions and ideas - samfisher - 2014-09-11
Thanks!
@jjd-uk & pipe1801: Yeah it's possible but that would require a LOT of time, because making the same exact thing in 3d is very complex and probably it wouldn't look the same as the "image" version (who knows, maybe it could be better!). But I'll do that if it's really needed and the majority prefers the "old" style.
