New Logos For Buck Inspire 2012
Hope everyone had a joyful and safe Christmas! As a gift to myself, my readers, and listeners, I decided to bring in the new year with a new logo. I’m trying to take myself to the next level and I’m hoping a new logo that is not the theme default will help do the trick. Are you trying to get to your next level? What are you doing to help get you there? Please help me, help you, by picking your favorite logo by leaving a comment below with top, middle, or bottom. Don’t be afraid to tell me why. Please get your votes in by Thursday, 12/29/11, or forever hold your peace.
Stay Inspired!
Buck
I really like the one on the top. It seems like it is sitting on shiny marble and seems incredibly modern and high tech.
Thanks Cash Flow Mantra for starting us off!
I like the third one. Has buck, inspiration and money – your blog in a nutshell!
Thanks Money Cone! It does put everything nice and in a nutshell.
Between the three (3) choices the first one is the best. How does it fit with your mission or purpose of the logo?
Thanks Krantcents! The lightbulb nicely refers to an inspiration which I want my content and myself to be. Still weighing everything out, thanks again!
I like the third one! The other two are okay, but I think the third choice best personifies the site.
Thanks for your vote So Over Debt!
I like the color combo of the. First and third ones, but the overall design of the third one.
Thanks for your feedback Thirty Six Months!
Need more options other than a bulb. Does any of these suggest yours is a personal finance blog? The last one, sans the horns indicates that its about money.
Get rid of those flames or horns from the last one, IMHO
Thanks for your detailed comment One Cent At A Time! I see what you mean.
I like the 1st design, but think the colors in the 2nd are better. Why not go with a logo in a similar design to Buck Rogers? I like the retro space / computer font…but i’m also a geek.
Thanks Financially Consumed! Great points and what’s wrong with being a geek? 🙂 Retro space / computer font, interesting, thanks!
Put me down for the third one. Brilliant combination.
Got it 101 Centavos! Thanks for your vote!
Please pick the third. It is brilliant…and normally, I just critique the heck out of logo designs.
Brilliant, thanks Super Frugalette! That’s quite an endorsement!
I like the first one. It looks more polished than the other choices. Have a great 2012!!! 😉
Thanks Retire By 40! Got your vote and have a great 2012 too!!!
I think #1 is the winner. The second logo is a little to bright and doesnt really match your theme (in my opinion, for what its worth…) . Also, I think you could do without the reflection or make it not as deep, it does not have to be symmetrical as that takes up a lot of space and is not necessarily appealing to a readers eye… hope this helps

Thanks Net Worth Protect! Got your vote and I see what you’re saying. Thanks again!
I like the first one!
Thanks Frugal Confessions!
I like the third one, with or without horns. The second one, with the backglow and the 3-d letters reminds me a bit of stuff I used to put together in power point when I was 12… but I really like the design of the bulb in the second one.
Thanks Accountant By Day! Appreciate your feedback and I see what you’re saying about the second one. Thanks again!
I like the third one the most.
Thanks Sense Of Cents!
I’m voting for the third one. The horns give it that added extra!
Thanks Daily Money Shot for giving me that something extra too!
I like the the third one with no horns. What do they symbolize anyway? 🙂
Thanks My Broken Coin! The horns are antlers on a male deer or buck, play on words. Check out the Milwaukee Bucks of the NBA.
I see… lol No horns for me please.
Gotcha, thanks!
I’m wondering if maybe the relationship between buck and horns isn’t apparent to non-Americans, since both SB and Aloysa have seemed puzzled by them. Maybe they are thinking buck as in dollar? Interesting.
Nice catch Andrea, very perceptive of you!
I personally like the third, bottom, one. I’m not too keen on the gradients in the other two, but that’s just my preference.
Thanks Little House In The Valley! Good point about the gradients, thanks!
I like the bottom one though the “bucks” are a bit overstated IMO.
Thanks Invest It Wisely! I see your point about the “bucks”. I had a similar feeling.
I like the first but would want to see a dollar sign in the middle of the V inside the bulb.
Thanks Family Money Values! Nice point about the dollar sign in the bulb.
I like the first logo the best but like the color of the second one better.
Thanks Tight Fisted Miser! Appreciate you dropping by and voting!
I like the second one…it pops
Thanks for popping in My Journey To Millions!
I like the first one as well.
Thanks The College Investor! Got your vote.
Sure it’s corny, but I’m feeling #3. Maybe add more points as the site gets older (heh)?
Thanks Don’t Quit Your Day Job! Corny or did you mean thorny? Sorry couldn’t resist. Nice idea for adding more points, clever. Thanks again!
For me its the first one, i like the use of the lightbulb and the small icon inside. Seems to be the most complete of the three logos
Thanks for your vote Fiscal Muses!
#3, but not crazy about the colors…Good luck!
Thanks The Millionaire Nurse. I’ll need it!
I also like the first one. It gives me the feeling of new ideas and perspectives. Fits perfectly. Best of luck with with rebrand and I hope you had a great holiday weekend.
Thanks Prairie Eco-Thrifter! I like that new ideas and perspectives feeling. Boy, this is going to be tough. Hope you had a great weekend, too!
I like the bottom one the best. It grabbed my attention first. Plus the buck horns make you think of the “buck” in buck inspire.
Thanks Petra! Glad you liked the horns. Guess it’s an acquired taste?
Not unusual, but I’m the odd guy here since I like the superhero look of the middle logo and I’m partial to blue. Otherwise, the top one is best since to me it displays more integrity and class.

Thanks Tossing It Out! I’m partial to superheroes, too. Picking logos, tougher than I thought!
I like the third one. The deer antlers do it for me. Probably my redneck tendencies sneaking out!
Thanks Cents To Save! Looks like Team Antler is picking up steam!
I really like the third one, it’s like a pun but with a picture (does that make sense?). I agree with Petra, it caught my attention and the antlers make me think about a buck.
Thanks Sasha! Got you down for the picture pun!
first one is definitely my favorite. i actualy dont like the other two at all.
Gotcha. Thanks Money Green Life!
Its close between top and bottom, but I like the bottom a little better.
Thanks Money Spruce!
Top and middle for sure. I love the blue but I like the lightbulb from the first one better.
Thanks Young Adult Finances!
Gotta go with the last one too. Just think it has a bit more character.
Thanks for your vote Novel Investor!
Its a tie between the first and the third. I like the first because of the illuminated letters, and I like the third because of the connection between antlers and buck….. If you had to put the light bulb in third logo on the first one, I would definitely go with the first one.
Thanks Odd Cents! Best of both worlds, eh?
Hi Buck! I like the third one… it has the most character and is the most memorable… very important for branding 😛 Good luck.
Thanks World of Finance! Picking a logo is easier said than done. Branding pressure anyone?
I agree… I’m still working on this myself… Good luck! Hopefully the feedback you are getting helps 😉
Thanks Mary! The feedback and response was terrific. If you’re looking into new logos, I suggest you do the same!
