I finished my logo! Very simple but I think it communicates what I want it to communicate.For my logo for this website I wanted it to communicate fairness, truth, politics, and an open conversation. Since the name of this blog is political thoughts, it seemed very fitting to include a thought cloud in the logo. Thinking about what I wanted to put inside, Lady Liberty’s scales appealed to me because they automatically communicate truth and fairness, which was exactly what I wanted.
However, just having those two elements with nothing else, that logo can be for any number of businesses or anything, so I added some color. I think the simple way of including the red and blue for the two primary political parties communicates that this is specifically about politics.
I had to trace the scales from a picture I found on the internet, on FlyClipart. The URL to the site is under the picture.
