January 05, 2006Brianstorms, Retrievr'dSo everyone's talking about Retrievr, a new "search by sketch" service that helps you find images within Flickr.Supposedly. I decided to search for the letters to the word "brianstorms". Hey, if it came back with something cool, I'd use it as the logo! Well, maybe. So I set about sketching in all the letters:
I sketched in "b". I sketched in "r". I sketched in "i". "a". "n". "s". "t". "o". "m". Here's a composite of all the letters I sketched:
Each time I then grabbed the first image that Retrievr offered as a match. I reasoned that "first" was the leftmost image in the top row in the list of image results. So, here's the new "brianstorms" logo, after it's been Retrievr'd.
I dunno. You tell me. Which is better, that, or the original logo?
Nice try, but I think I'll stick with my version. :-) Comments
I'm still holiding out for the service that finds a song based on my badly-whistled half-remembered rendition. Actually, I prefer the hand-written letters for b r i a n s t o r m s! Posted by: anthropocentric at January 5, 2006 09:56 PM
