Post 11 - Bad Logos

While lookin up logo designs, I found an article about the new Ebay logo (at the time, at least). From what I read, people didn't like it. I've included it below:

"Ebay Logo"
Most of the complaints came from the fact that the letters were too close and that the letters didn't breathe. I do have to agree with them on that statement, but then there was a suggestion for an alternative logo. That one is below:
 
 
"Alternate Logo"
Personally, I think this one is worse. For me, it mainly has to do with the areas of the letters that overlap. Those off color areas pull my eye and distract from the overall logo design.

People may say that they don't like he logo, but the alternative ones are worse. Besides, just fix the spacing, and it's fine. Sometimes, simplicity is the best.
