Close, but isn't it Copper, not Cooper?

There we get some magic into the product.I agree but he is not a singer (singing in his shower doesn't count). That's why I don't choose Gary Cooper but Dick Cooper because he is the only singer with "cooper" that I found in Wikipedia.

Here is a nightingale bird with a blue note based on your logo that I did quick and dirty with GIMP (I am not able to do any more, I am not a designer ![]() ![]()

Here are my suggestions...
Blue ![]() ![]() Copper ![]() ![]() ![]() Purple ![]() ![]() I made some changes, especially in the musical note and eyes. But I think the ideal logo for nightingale should go here: ![]() ![]() Because it has all the elements of a great logo in addition to the slight resemblance to songbird. ![]() Also some corrections were made to the B&W logo, mainly in the musical note. Thanks. SVG: http://mir.cr/1IOWVWUW
Hmm… Thanks for your work, but it's a bit overdone with effects to my taste. There is already a slight glow around the original colored version and we shouldn't exaggerate that. The threshold between "it looks awesome" and "it looks blurry" is very subtle. Further on, I think the versions with the dark border on the moon are out of question, it looks like cheap Photoshop effects (sorry.
![]() Also the eyes look too evil in my opinion. They were already squished a bit on your request, we shouldn't go too far. Nightingale is a player for everyone and the bird should therefore look friendly and welcoming, not evil and malicious (even though it might bring a bit fire into the picture). Don't forget: it's a logo which has to be used in many different places and environments. And for the b&w logo I would rather suggest using the outline version. It's easy to customize in its color, which makes it very flexible. The real b&w is only usable in some cases (or it has the be changed in color, which is rather complicated). The thin outline around the b&w logo might also look a bit like jagged edges due to imperfect alpha transparency in some sizes. I quarreled with myself whether I should release that version or not. I did, but perhaps I better did't. Your corrections to the note are good, though.

Are you kidding? Do you know how much it costs Photoshop? Sorry friend for that price there are not cheap effects in Photoshop, every effect cost you an arm and a leg LOL. Anyway, the effects were made in Inksacape ![]() No, seriously, the lights and shadows were just a way to highlight the logo but they're not a proposal itself. Here are my proposals: BLUE ![]() COPPER ![]() PURPLE ![]() But I still think the color logo is not appropriate to be the Nightingale's final logo. No need to start a flame war here but, maybe the logo looks evil with my eyes or maybe not, but with the eyes that originally had, looks a little childish, reminds me of my elementary school books, they were good when I was 5... but for a logo? Remember, a logo should be sleek, simple, scalable, easy to remember and in this case, for all age groups, et cœtera. In that vein and wanting the best for this project I suggest (again) the B&W logo, as is or with other colors, because it meets all requirements that a great logo should have. Think about it. Also is the most neutral and can reach all audiences (for anyone ![]() I know there are things to improve but then we have to get started working on those details.

But although those who have bought it like me, can easily have a pitfall with them. And remember: cheap doesn't mean free of charge. ![]() As I said: the realignment of the note is good, but I don't like the squished eyes at all. I also don't think that more or less round eyes automatically look childish. If they were completely circular and much bigger compared to the rest, I would agree, but neither is the case. As you said: the logo has to fit the product, but I don't see Nightingale as an evil product. It looks deterrent to me. I wouldn't use Nightingale if it were so angry.

Hello, I remake the B&W Nightingale's logo, and now only has two independent parts that can change color separately.
