Igor, the problem I have with these is that it looks like "ei" or "el" and definitely not "eu".
OK, it is a good thing!
It looks strange and generates the questions for the first time at least. Any reader asks - what a hell, looks like 'i' but where is that dot, looks like 'l' but why so low?
See please one more picture:
It is the Times New Roman font.
Do you see the diffs more clearly now?
And this strangeness is some common thing for really new logo.
See for example the Sun logo, it requires some thinking to see that its icon consists of 4 "sun" words.
I don't get at all what you are trying to say that eu looking like an I or L is a good thing.
Not 'eu', but the 'u'-portion of the combined new proposed character looks like 'i' without dot, or like too low 'l'.
No, that portion is not i-without-dot, nor too-low-l.
See? It is a portion of 'u'. Nothing more.
But these features make some sense as some little enigma in logo.
Of course in a different font, not smashed together they don't look the same.
Yes, and we have some very strange fonts, for example, EmporiumCapitals, First Order, Pseudo Saudi, Rustic_Capitals, Universal Jack etc etc etc.
I agree with Derek 100%, it's way too confusing and very hard to see what it's even saying.
He-he-he, Derek doesn't say "it's way too confusing and very hard to see what it's even saying".
I see, you do not like my proposition, what to do, but now, with all proposed logos in this topic, you can make tons of skins for your site and switch them on randomly every time the user visits your site again.
The Sun logo, you can clearly and easily see Sun 4 times. There is not difficulty in reading it.
No, I could not to see these suns first time. But now I do see these 4 suns and think it is an interesting icon.
