I'm not worthy to criticise any of the artwork here, as I'm dangerous with a crayon, so a heartfelt "wow" and "well done" to everyone.
However... it feels like folks are floundering in the dark. What does the 'Kodi' brand mean? Is it meant to be cuddly and friendly, or clinical and technical? Is it just a media player, or is there something else (e.g. the Retroplayer branch) that makes it more - and do the play/pause/etc. reflect that? If you had to list five adjectives to describe XBMC now, Kodi tomorrow or even Kodi long-term - what words would you use, and how do they find their way into the logo's 'values'?
I'll stop being so corporate now, feel free to ignore/yell at me

Just wanted to try this font I've been working on using the golden ratio thing, to me it looks well balanced and appealing.

I like the ideas, I do, but the !14 alpha Helix! text feels out of place in all presentations altogether, its not a splash screen design. having said that, I feel the kodi text/font and the entertainment center at the bottom with the bounding frame really have strong and simple presence, the puzzle bit, all though well rendered lacks something, seems somewhat out of balnce perhaps because the puzzle fit bits are way too small proportionally. But generally the idea is simple enough.
The other 4 entries are ok I like the one with the reel best as the wavy bit looks ike the film spooling out.

Thanks everyone!
@uNiversal: Thanks for all your suggestions! I think the "14 Alpha Helix" text can be edited later, I just put it there to simulate the splash screen, as you say. Yeah we can make the puzzle fit bits a little bigger, but the K will be smaller. Or we can make the fit bits triangle shapes, or something.
Another one!

"offtopic"
He guys
Here are so many faboulus logo concepts, amazing how creative you are.
I have a littele thread in the german xbmcnerds forum to create a logo for my nickname
"StealthDefender". Link: http://www.xbmcnerds.com/index.php?page=...6&pageNo=2
If anybody have an idea or concept it would be nice to see some pics.
Something with an Hexxagon Style would be nice. ;-)
The logo is not for commercial use, only for Forum Avatars, Homepage banner and something like this.
Something like this would be in my mind http://www.google.at/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&e...8510322450
Also only with the letters SD and/or the full StealthDefender name with a hexxagon font.
Sorry for offtopic here but i see so nice artworks here and i am a noob on grafic design!

Yep, another one for the collection. I do like the balance of the logo/icon text placing/format on these last ones. and the i grew up a little bit, nice idea.
