Ask HN: Which logo is best?

Posted by kyle_martin1 on Friday July 15, 2011 @08:44AM
from the ask-hn dept.

Logos: http://i52.tinypic.com/2v024o0.jpg Product: iPhone running app called "PaceWave."

Every running application out on the marketplace right now has some generic running silhouette as icon and logo. We want to differentiate our app from the rest, of course. If you have any neat suggestions for a logo that'd be appreciated as well!

Thanks and please vote on which logo you like best. :)

Use a tortoise, or a hamster on a wheel. Or Debra, the zonkey - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/wildlife/8618302/Rare-zonke...

Funny animals are memorable.

First is most effective. Have you tried like a life pulse illustration?

What do you mean by that? Is the "life pulse" an animation where the logo "beating" like a heart?

Top one. Seen at iPhone app icon size it is far clearer.

DEFINITELY the top. Smooth, sleek, fast looking, simple.
