Sure VAVA looks like VAIO, but it isnt vaio and its gfor totally different use, btw - the playstation 3 logo doesnt look like spiderman logo? do'h!!! its the same friggin' font! XD @Tarkov guy - go to the bathroom and get off, you'll feel better, maybe then you'll quit bitching around the problem that didn't exist at all!

I'm curious... Do ALL articles and interviews get published? I think the point Raja was trying to make in the interview was that inspiration sometimes gets to the best of us. There have been a few times that I've had to pull a concept from a client because I realized that it looked too similar to another design.

So where are all these interviews that you apparently did with national Australian papers? Haven't seen a single one yet....though I doubt we ever will ;) I mean, you'd think that a month and a have later, *something* would have shown up? LOL Hey Raja… So where are all these interviews that you apparently did with national Australian papers?

What is the one answer? I agree with you on those companies not finding similarities in the logos I have created... not sure if you are suggesting something. Maybe this is similar? http://www.misipile.com/portfolio/3commerce.png To the by passer, thanks. What is the one answer?

Now that I have read it, I can't forget that famous Einstein's quote on there being only 2 indefinite things... As to your question: "Why the biggest logo design projects like that, it is always by companies not by freelancer designer?" there is only one answer, and it's not Raja's. Think into what needs to be done with a logo to put it to life. How many applications must be made, before a logo is properly developed and presented? Do you (honestly) believe a freelance designer can take on such a project? Have you any experience with such large projects at all? To Raja Sandhu: being a graphic designer myself, I know how irritating it is when you find something you believe to be similar to your work, but I do not believe you should be concerned about the Melbourne logo. I'm sure people who designed Firefox logo wouldn't find any similarities in your FireFish, Xerox in your ETFI, Sony Vaio in VAVA and so on. ;) Best of wishes from Europe (where the Queen lives) To the writer of this blog: I came across your writing when searching for info on the Melbourne Logo Project.
