I think we should not have the paper-looking book in the logo, since that's not really what we're about. Despite the little bubble thing, the overall look is still a regular book. I think this one makes the case stronger that we do "e" books, not regular books.

I hope the new logo keeps the "Neptune Rings". That's what I notice, not the device in the center.

I think the rings should stay too, in some form, anyway. That is one of the things that is 'defining' of MobileRead to me too.

I use Photoshop.

What do you guys think of this direction?

Who made the original logo, and is there an editable file of it we could work with?

If people want to keep the rings, maybe just a small change to the device in the center is in order.

I like the crisp look of your effort mercury7. Some have talked about incorporating ones and zeros; could that be done with out making it look too cluttered?

I agree, I'd like to see that too. I'm too scatterbrained and busy right now to diddle with Photoshop myself...not that I'm that good but sometimes I stumble upon something nice.

My thought on this is something that is simple and visually indicative of what we're doing, but less hardware-specific:
