“Our Ideas and Additional Information:
Management initially inspired by KOZMO.COM logo (See http://www.opsdesign.com/graphics/why_gifts.jpg) BUT open to ideas, specifically ICONS images that are NOT too busy or detailed.”
Peter May 24, 2011 at 5:15 pm: crazy.. nice find, Ryan.. but notice they aren’t even using the winning log there – they just cropped the Kozmo logo a little and tossed a shopping bag in his hand : )
Adam September 5, 2011 at 2:30 am: wow good find to both of you. Have you seen the logogarden.com hoopla ? even worse.
Peter September 6, 2011 at 1:09 am: don’t think I’ve heard about logogarden.. what happened there?
Scott September 6, 2011 at 2:14 am: Yet another “running man” logo: http://www.careonecredit.com/

I’m willing to bet there’s more out there….

I’m just a random that came across this post when I saw the shoprunner logo and thought it looked exactly like Kosmo. Too funny.
