Has blown my mind with the vastness of the online content, all related to the history of Apple.
I’ve been an avid long-term Apple devotee; from owning an Apple Macintosh Classic and Apple Macintosh LC, as well as using Apple Macintosh computers through out the last 40 years in a professional work capacity, this website brings back a lot of memories:

Finally wrapped up Meyers Construction Logo and Stationery Design project. Couple of business card and stationery mock-ups to help David with the basics.
Really really happy with how this logo turned out; probably 20 pages of sketches in the end.

✏️ First time I’ve come across this brilliant company and their website: mschf.com They provide so many unique and cool downloads, that’s it’s definitely worth subscribing. They also have iOS and Android apps that are worth a look.
The cost for this stylised Letter G Logo for Sale is £250, and its quite a special logo in my opinion. The concept was initially designed for a client who needed a logo for a medical website: http://medifact.md providing information, facts and answers to questions…

The Logo Smith worked with a past Client, Excedr, to design a Logo & Brand Identity for SuperblyCo : food & beverage equipment leasing company, along with a One Page Brand Logo Guidelines Template.
SuperblyCo provides: flexible equipment leases, comprehensive repair/maintenance coverage, and exceptional concierge-level customer service/support/responsiveness to food & beverage production companies.

The following images shows how I designed a number of primary and alternate logo design lock-up’s that will allow for greater flexibility when it comes to marketing, advertising and other brand identity uses and applications.
The primary logo is the Stamp (below, top line), which includes: Brand Name, Tag-Line and the ‘S’ Monogram all within a circular container.
The inner container (below, bottom line) containing the cSo is also a standalone logo, which is used for the front of the business cards, and envelope flap, for example.
To finish up, a set of Positive and Negative One Page Brand Logo Guidelines Template were created (which you can download the template for to base your own Logo Guidelines off from), and these are toward the end of this post.

Logo redesign and rebrand for SifterApp, including: letterpress business cards, logo design and web application icons for Apple iPhone.
I recently completed the Sifterapp logo design, and was truly excited, and chuffed, to see how the letterpress printed business cards ended up.
Sifter LetterPress Business Cards printed on 220lb Crane Lettra by Evan Calkins (@EvanCalkins), Hoban Press (@HobanPress).
I really am quite proud of how the Sifter logo turned out, but more pleased that Garret’s vision for the card design came to fruition.
Garret was super intent on going as minimal as possible with the card design, and I really think it turned out brilliantly. The mono version of the Sifter logo looks particularly striking with the letterpress adding the finishing touch.
Garret has written up a neat little post, on the background of these cards, over on the Sifter blog: Practicing Craft via Cards.

I initially found this on Reddit, and it’s really become a very popular post.
Other Reddit users have been posting various other versions of this poster, even links to more historically useful bits of information relating to Apollo 13. Also see bottom of this post for a nice little animated version.
Go Reddit…
A reddit user: Plastuer, even created an animated version of it, such is this posters overall popularity:
And here’s an iPhone background version, by another Reddit user, ELFuhler.
Wikipedia: Apollo 13 was the seventh crewed mission in the Apollo space program and the third intended to land on the Moon. The craft was launched from Kennedy Space Center(KSC) on April 11, 1970, but the lunar landing was aborted after an oxygen tank in the service module (SM) failed two days into the mission. The crew instead looped around the Moon, and returned safely to Earth on April 17, 1970. The mission was commanded by Jim Lovell with Jack Swigert as command module pilot (CMP) and Fred Haise as lunar module pilot (LMP). Swigert was a late replacement for the original CMP Ken Mattingly, who was grounded after exposure to rubella.
The oxygen tank failure was caused by accidental ignition of damaged wire insulation inside it during a routine tank stirring operation. The SM soon lost all its oxygen, needed for breathing and for generating electrical power. Command module (CM) power had to be shut down to conserve its remaining resources for reentry, forcing the crew to transfer to the lunar module (LM) as a lifeboat. With the lunar landing cancelled, mission controllers worked feverishly to bring the crew home alive.
The Logo Smith was hired by RxLess in 2019 to redesign their existing logo design, and to also revamp their general brand identity.
Below you can see the comparison of the old RxLess logo, and the new RxLess logo.
The final solution that was chosen for the RxLess logo design reflects the shape of common medicines: round pills and capsules, and arranges each to for the letters for ‘r’ and ‘l’.
This clean and bold logo mark works incredibly well on all aspects of stationery and other branding applications.
The RxLess logo looks particularly striking when reversed out in white on the magenta background, such as is used for their envelopes and also Prescription Savings Program cards.
Rxless.com searches millions of medication prices and offers on trusted prescription savings programs.

Negative Space Letter M Logo for Sale Designed by The Logo Smith
This Letter B logo for sale, was originally designed as a concept for an ethernet networking company, hence the use of nicely arranged Cat 5 Ethernet Cables to form the Letter B.
The cables form horizontal lines that lead forward, suggesting connectivity and communication.
Whilst this logo was designed with cable networking in mind, it could be utilised for other purposes where some form of connectivity is implied.
It might also be possible to fashion different letters from this arrangement of lines, but ideally a letter that is symmetrical when flipped on the horizontally axis, such as the letters: C, D, and E, O.
It could also be rotated 90˙ so the lines are vertical, which would then represent the letter M, for example.

The cost for this Letter B Logo is just £400, and there are a few extras that can be included for additional cost.

Logo Design Exclusivity
All my Ready Made Logo Designs for Sale Online are Completely Exclusive, and will only be sold once.
If you buy this Letter B Logo Design, then you’ll receive all Copyright and Original Artwork, and you’ll be free to do with this logo as you see fit.
Some of these are: client rejected logo designs, logo concepts, and many more doodles and sketches of possible logo designs that were not used.
In some cases I’m able to reuse or adapt an existing ‘unused design’ for a new client.
I’m seeing my library of these ‘unpublished’ designs just collecting digital dust, which is quite a waste I think.
I therefore decided it would be a nice little income earner to start making these ‘unused and unseen’ logo designs and concepts, available to buy almost ‘off-the-shelf’, with some minor tweaks and changes.
A lot of these Logos for Sale are the result of many weeks, sometimes months, of: research, mind-maps, doodling and sketching, designing and tweaking, backwards and forwards with the client.
These designs are not just randomly made in 10 minutes, but ARE the result of my many years of experience, and close working relationship with each past client.
You are therefore buying a supremely awesome value for money logo design, at a fraction of the cost of most bespoke logo design projects that I am commissioned to develop and design.
Design Exclusivity is so important in logo and brand identity.
