Marketing101, whats in a name?...everything!!! And, well frankly, the name kind of sucks... but it could stick. COULD. People would call it Cai for short, easy to say, sounds catchy. But, here is what you NEED to do:
Lose "coin". Its a rip off; its played out; its overused. It says, "Hi, I am just another altCOIN!!" Lose it, please. Its not a coin, its cryptographic currency. Just "CaiShen" that's it. We don't need another coin. Facebook wasn't called FaceSpace for a reason. Catch my drift?
Yes point taken. Thank you.
Sticking with what I know, not crypto development or trading, but marketing -I have one more recommendation. The CAI logo should follow suit with the name and lose the coin reference. It is so tiresome and boring to say the least. As an investor in this coin, I would like to see the logo follow application and social networking logo guideline. As an example, I would refer designers to Facebook, Twitter, Skype, etc. Some good crypto logos thus far have been Protoshares, EBTcoin, and maybe even Vertcoin or Ultracoin.
1. A maximum of 3 colors should be used, preferably 2.
2. Simple and iconic design. It should be distinct and recognizable.
3. Should be different from other similar product logos.
4. Lose the fine print and probably any text. You design the logo to the size it will be displayed. No one can read Cai Shen on the logo when it appears on the Windows task bar (for the qt)
5. At least make the excess around the icon transparent so we don't see the white on alternate background colors.
6. Vibrant color! The current gold with the gradient effect is really, really ineffective as a logo.
Thanks. I just really want to see this work. And branding is the foundation. It is much easier to "sell" or encourage the widespread adoption of professionally packaged products. The book is ALWAYS judged by its cover.
, hope u like it.
