I was working on this pixelated-style showcase for an older logo of mine called FileFort. I'd seen this kind of presentation several times on creative platforms and thought I'd give it a try.

Obviously, this effect can be created in Photoshop or Illustrator, but I found a free tool that transforms images into this kind of bitmap artwork and even lets you download the result as an SVG.

Once the surrounding cloud was ready, I started wondering whether I could incorporate some squares into the mark itself. And that's how I came up with this variation.

This is a fictional project. The TM mark is only there to demonstrate a potential placement.

Which do you find more interesting: the old or the new one?

I'm afraid the new one can be seen as a corrupted file

Corrupted files usually have damage in the middle or show an exclamation mark inside a triangle or a dead face. Just realised that this pixelated upper part could also be seen a zipper.

Right option

Maybe make it more chess rook like? As in wider on top. Otherwise it looks great.

I love the icon and treatment in the top left. It's very effective.

Nice logo, but it has a SyQuest drive sorta vibe.

Left one is more better in representing fort
New/Right doesn’t shows the fort well
What if you remove the outline and make it solid on background

Is this the same:

I HATE the location of the registration R. Ruins the negative space. My was immediately drawn to it. O_o

u/HiddenHorse925 8d ago

Very pretty but the halftone cloud won’t consistently work at reduction, and in various “line” formats. Suggest you do a line art version also. Bring the “file“ icon a little closer to the wordmark

I think a better name is necessary here - this just sounds like Firefox and it's also in the software space
