Kodi logo suggestions and ideas - Ned Scott - 2014-08-03 This is to just get the ball rolling here on collecting ideas/suggestions/etc for the new Kodi logo. We'll probably organize this a little better as we go along, since I bet a lot of people want to have input on this process, but we wanted to start a thread for community input sooner than later. Important notes:
Note: In this forum thread we are ONLY looking for logo concepts for the name Kodi. Please note that there are several areas, in these forums, in the comments of the blog, and on social media, where you are welcome to complain endlessly about the new name, the Foundation, how we came up with the name, and even me as a human being. In this forum thread we are ONLY looking for logo concepts for the name Kodi. Anything else can and almost certainly will be deleted. I'm going to post this at the end of the current posts and give users roughly 24 hours [from August 3rd] to migrate their complaining posts to some other thread. After that, I'll be deleting anything distracting from the intended conversation. - natethomas RE: Kodi logo suggestions and ideas - un1versal - 2014-08-03 This is something along the lines I saw on another thread, maybe it will help ppl get the general idea.

So this has been far from a easy process for the Team, and if we could have opened it up to the community we more than likely would have, however doing that could have caused so many complications in finding free domain names as anything that might look like becoming popular could be registered by those out to make a quick buck.

RE: Kodi logo suggestions and ideas - produno - 2014-08-03 How about a new slogan "Use Kodi (code-eye) or Go Die" ...?

What is the message the the XBMC foundation wants to convey with XBMC/KODI? Choosing a logo has to start with a brainstorm of words we want to associate with the product. After having selected the message one can start to think about a drawing. Here are my associations: Centralization Stored Video (Movies/TV Shows/Clips/Music) Streamed Video (Movies/TV Shows/Clips/Music) Live Video (Podcasts/TV/Channels) Pictures Music Accessibility Expandable Open source Colaboration Support Add yours.

So people can have another thing they can hate? just take the existing one an change the text.. That won't work, the shape of the letters in "xbmc" and the font used, (though I recall the "x" is actually a "c" duplicated then one half reversed) work as a harmonious whole, "kodi" using the same font, will be totally unbalanced. How would the d&i flow for example.
