For today's logo, I chose the Firefox graphic. It combines creative graphical elements with a great colour scheme. I really like the colour scheme with the orange directly contrasting the blue (this coming from someone who's favourite colour is orange). I also like how the icon actually resembles something familiar, as opposed to unnatural or abstract graphics such as the google chrome symbol or internet explorer icon. I feel that the fox helps to make the graphic more relate-able and wholesome because it is something we can recognize. Also, the many different renditions of the graphic by fans and artists reveals how universally appealing and versatile the logo is.

The website I picked for this week is definitely my favourite of all my picks thus far. The minimalistic/cartoony style works really well. I especially love the colour scheme; Primarily using black and white, with small amounts of vibrant highlights really makes everything pop. What's really interesting is that there's nothing really innovative or "gimmicky" about the site. What makes it great, is that it has awesome designs and layout; a testament to how technical aspects are not always the most important. Another cool thing about the site is that some of the buttons are blended into the background, and kind of act like easter eggs. I feel this makes the site more interactive, and suits the fun nature of it very well.
