Ugh, those are horrible! Only the first one is somewhat OK but...ugh. They should keep the dinosaur theme for their logo, it is what differentiates them at first sight.

 

[subrock]

I actually quite like some of them, but not for a browser. They look more like logos for a Tokyo drifting league than a desktop app

 

[Meier]

This one just makes me think of Classixx' album/single covers:

 

[Tregard]

 

[SoundPulse]

I kinda dig the Eye of Sauron one.

Johnson Banks are garbage in my opinion.

Their redesign of my old colleges logo was horrific:

Wow. Oof.

 

[Riddick]

Free of charge.

Let's see who can top in ugliness and edginess the terrible Mozilla logos in the OP. Mine:

 

[DiipuSurotu]

I've got no knowledge pertaining designing and I would have come up with better logos.
Why not incorporate the fox more, I mean it's basically world famous, just embrace it.

because they create more products than just Firefox.

Firefox is the only one people care about though. Not even the developers care about Thunderbird.

 

[Faddy]

make it a marquee and we have a winner

I see Pixar, Sky + Box, Zune.

Surely they should have just make it an open contest instead of paying one guy. They aren't good.

You must not be a designer. As for the logos themselves, I feel they could be better for what Mozilla stands for. Might work better in this style for other companies.

 

[Fandangox]

This one screams "We make fun-ducational toys for preschoolers! Look for our ads on NickJr!"

This is just their Monster Hunter icon.

 

[D4Danger]

By the way I think the OP should have posted the current Mozilla logo:

These concepts are bad but it's not like the current one is anything to write home about.

EDIT: Beaten like a slow browser

I'm a genius.

 

[Meier]

I'm a genius.

I think this honestly looks pretty good. Go get you some money.

 

[Ghazi]

I'm a genius.

Email that idea to Mozilla, please. And, yeah, make some money.

 

[Fandangox]

I'm a genius.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

I'm a genius.

YES

 

[aygomyownroad]

For reference, this is their current logo

Looks like a crap NFL logo

 

[TheRealTalker]

Some of these look like some alien shit

I'm a genius.

I agree, email them with just the words "YOU'RE WELCOME"

 

[jelly]

I'm a genius.

Winner.

 

[Insane Metal]

All of them look like shit... lol

I'm a genius.

THIS ON THE OTHER HAND. PLEASE GO GET YOUR MONEY. THIS IS PERFECT

 

[sans_pants]

As a part time designer im pretty pissed cause they probably paid 10s of thousands for this garbage

 

[C-Drive]

I'm a genius.

Seriously that's perfect.

 

[Permanently A]

I'm a genius.

Go get that cash money bruh

 

[Übermatik]

You're all awful graphic designers.

 

[Slurpy2k20]

This will surely help.

Spoiler

Not a fucking chance.

 

[DodgyGeezerFella]

Gimme that cheque.

 

[FortuneFaded]

I've got it:

Edit: Fucking beaten like an Ethiopian 5000m runner

 

[Brazil]

They're all awful, but the second one is really, really interesting. I love how they managed to do all the letters justice in that mess.

 

[Village]

I'm a genius.

Sharpen the right end of them M
Its fantastic

 

[RandomSeed]

You're all awful graphic designers.

(_I_)

 

[Kilrogg]

Terrible all around.

Why don't they keep the dinosaur/Godzilla concept and make a new logo around that idea? Too afraid of getting sued? Dinos not fashionable enough anymore for you?

Keeping the dinosaur theme has undeniable advantages IMO:
1. Continuity with their current identity
2. Obvious link with their name, as it sounds like Godzilla
3. Continuity with their software logos (i.e. Firefox's and Thunderbird's names and logos are animal-based)

I don't know, the dinosaur could be more stylized than the current one - that's a given... Maybe something more cutesy/flat/material design-ish? And much like the bird and the fox encircle something, maybe the dino could "encircle"... something with its teeth?

 

[Nightbird]

://

 

[blamite]

Eh... The third one could be pretty good with better colors?

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Trying really is the operative word. These are fucking awful. :lol

I'm a genius.

This on the other hand is simple and perfect.

 

[onadesertedisland]

I think the idea of a "retro" browser might catch on. Bring back the Netscape brand.

 

[Kinokou]

I'm a genius.

Yes you are!

 

[xrnzaaas]

These hurt my eyes... only the Godzilla inspired one is decent but I'd pick green instead of yellow.

 

[Mivey]

They should go with the first one, but make the eye look more like this.

A demonic all-seeing eye also fits well with tech firms in general today.

 

[br0ken_shad0w]

Are flaming letters back in style?

By the way I think the OP should have posted the current Mozilla logo:

These concepts are bad but it's not like the current one is anything to write home about.

EDIT: Beaten like a slow browser

It would make a good Toronto Raptors logo though.

 

[Soul Beat]

I'm a genius.

Go get paid son!

 

[WedgeX]

Reminds me of the line guys that GAF is famous for.

 

[necrosis]

these are all fucking horrible apart from moz://a

particularly the colorful wingdings one

i hope they only paid like $5 for these

 

[draetenth]

All pretty bad with this one being the least bad.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

 

[ZeroGravity]

These are like the kind of logos I doodled in a high school mathbook.

 

[SJRB]

Trash. Just call Cory Schmitz, for fucks sake.

 

[Stumpokapow]

m:// is the least bad of the bunch, but:
a) it's way too heavy typographically
b) mozilla's colour is red, not blue
c) it's way too nerdy (firefox literally hides the http:// part because only nerds care about connection protocols, it's a holdover from the time where the internet actually had many protocols)
d) it still looks worse than the current wordmark.

the eye of sauron one is aesthetically ok but everyone is going to read that as surveillance. it's yellow and black, which communicates ALERT!!!, and it's a giant eye, which communicates surveillance. for an organization supposedly dedicated to web freedom, that's a bad message.

it's a testament to mozilla's failure as an organization that half the feedback doesn't recognize that firefox and mozilla aren't the same thing. which i guess shows why they're doing a rebranding. but not like this.

 

[enzo_gt]

All of those are either so bland, by-the-numbers, or completelt devoid of personality.

Then again it's not like their current branding has any of that either.

 

[br3wnor]

This one is insane, like how the fuck did a professional come up with this.

 

[Spiritwalker]

the pink and blue one is fucking terrible

i mean, they're all terrible but that one really sucks ass

 

[JoeNut]

They're literally all bad. How does that happen
