How about just the sun? Forget the Gx thing. Just Dull's yellow sun. I still like the symbolism of letting the sun shine in.

Let the sunshine in ...





A bird resembles nature and freedom. Wink

I know I already promised to be quiet on the topic, but just a quick comment.

*think print* ... whether paper, fabric, plastic, anything ... you can't have gradients, fancy lighting effects, drop shadows and the like ... just doesn't work.

Ultimately it has to drop down to 2 color line art for some mediums. Logo design needs to reflect that.

This is a very attractive *graphic*, but it could never be used as a logo ...

What I like best about the bird is that it doesn't have that annoying Gx in it. Yeah I know it's the universal geocaching logo, but dang if it isn't ugly.

The bird looks alot like a Southwest Indian design.

It is, I bet. Anyway, I've seen this before, it's nothing new, imaginary. That's what disturbes me. And the gradient. And the many colo(u)rs...

See here:
http://www.taz.de/pt/.nf/home
and
http://www.wolfskin.de

The last went to court against the first, for these had some (I think two) items in it's shop which had the taz-logo on it and which were similar to item one would associate with outdoor-equipment (a thermo-can and something else, bag or so). Wolfscin won and the newspaper people had to remove the goodies.

No good idea to use this motive.

Happy new year, btw.!
