That's why Pandora successor needs to be different than these simple devices...
Finding a proper name and logo :)
- Thread starter EvilDragon
- Start date
The above uses a logarithmic scale, which allows me to fit everything on, but makes the breakdown of different keywords meaningless
The below uses a linear scale, so the breakdown is readable, but "phoenix" is cut off (it should be at the 950,000,000 results mark), which is about a foot beyond the top of my computer screen.
You're probably thinking "how about sparxbox?"
Now I've written it down, you can probably see why its a bad idea

What makes a good logo doesn't really change between audiences :huh:
Ok fine, then it's just me who likes a bit more complicated beautiful logos.

^ I'd say the logo I came up with ages ago is either at the very edge of being too complex, or is already beyond it:

@ Binky - and what about dragonbox? Too obvious to mention... but anyway.
@ Binky 2 - More complex logo's can be successful - Heineken - Starbucks etc. And for a niche product like the Pandora it doesn't really matter and I think a bit more complexity gives it more status. Just like a good wine. You don't see a big M on a bottle of expensive wine

Well, I'm pretty sure we want to have the logo on the device itself, so it shouldn't be too complex.
While SNESFANs logo looks neat, it's a lot too complex for that.
Something simple, abstract would be a lot better IMHO.

My favorite is Pyrrha, the red-haired daughter of Pandora in Greek mythology. The name is derived from the greek word for "fire", so dragons are not far away.
It has relatively few Google hits, so that's nice too.
Only downside is the somewhat tricky spelling. It could be simplified though, to "Pyra" or something (let's say Pyra the dragon is the sister of Spyro the dragon).

There are already lots of google hits for ED's shop, so it would be hard to get comparable numbers.

Building on the current logo ... just imagine a clean look and everything centered
Allino means sth. like sticking together, adhering to. And 1 like how it sounds similar to all-in-one. so this suggestion is pretty old already- time to come up with more

Ythoz? *looks up from his console window with a program generating random mostly pronouncable words*
EDIT: Oh, it was spelled with a z from the wordgen, that has a lot less hits.

The problem with Pyrrha is that it's another line of jewellery, very popular on ebay. "Pyrrha handheld" or "Pyrrha console" may not be popular, but most people will just enter the name into a google or ebay search and get back millions of hits for overpriced jewellery. This was the exact same issue with the Pandora.Fortunately there's no music streaming services to be confused with.

That looks far to busy to be used on a product.
As was said on an earlier post I think more simplistic the better (Apple, BBC etc.)
As for names I think something unique that can become entrenched in the public's psyche would be better.
Something like Google, Facebook, Twitter, Wii etc, who years ago would have known of those, and how many results would have come up for Wikipedia in 2000.
If you are the only company / product with a created word you will be #1 in search results from the get go.

I'm not certain apple's logo was rainbow coloured and his has only three, besides then it would stand out.
As for the name I like a strong sounding name, besides we could always go with a nice German name :3

I think Myriad is the best name for a succesor.
I like the sound of that name.
