ELON MUSK Took my Advice: The Secret Fix to 𝕏's Logo Design

[@hldfgjsjbd]

JOE THEY MOVED TOP RIGHT LINE! BRING THE CAMERA NOW!

[@willpatersondesign]

My favourite comment 😂

[@michaelfeghali9943]

Could you convince them to bring the original logo back?😅

[@TheRealPostpunker]

@@michaelfeghali9943 doesn't matter that much if it's a right wing conspiracy X or bird then. But bird would be visually nicer I guess. Even though it's a hell hole of a social network.

[@Copa20777]

😂😂😂 you dint have to bro

[@bingbangboomxx]

Good job with the video but I don't feel it is one of the world's most iconic brands. They had one with Twitter and dumped it, lost a ton of users and year over year bleeding money. The fact that people still call it "Twitter" speaks volumes.

[@raziel88]

Am I screwed that my brain perceives the “correct” X as correct and the offset X as incorrect? 1:55 Like this one looks totally messed up to me. Is it supposed to be messed up or?

[@eingoluq]

You may have depth perception issues. do you get a lot of fender benders?

[@raziel88]

@@eingoluq No not at all my depth perception is great. I’m usually able to much more accurately predict how long it’ll take for an opposite car to pass for example

[@eingoluq]

@@raziel88 Then I think its more because you are looking for it. if you forget about it, it will start to look "right" again.

[@FundamSrijan]

Me 2 bro , we aren't screwed

[@guylaineregimbald2914]

Good for you for having shown them the professional way.

[@formerlycringe]

I love how you're using Affinity Designer on the iPad, do you have a course you recommend for learning Affinity on iPad?

[@willpatersondesign]

Plenty of KZbin videos! Not sure on courses :)

[@JoshChadwick1]

I had been noticing the offset recently and it has been bothering me so much. Is it weird that the offset sticks out to me and I would prefer them to be aligned?

[@DesignWho]

Hi Will

[@willpatersondesign]

Thanks brother :D

[@JordanDecay]

They clearly moved it up, instead of to the right, so that they can claim they didn't take your advice ;)

[@Serifinity]

I didn't quite get it, all the X's you displayed looked wrong? Why is it better to shift them so that they look unaligned?

[@raziel88]

Yeah for me too. But I’m pretty sure for the vast majority of people the X’s do look correct when it’s offset. No idea why it doesn’t work for us tho lol

[@Serifinity]

@raziel88 thanks for your comment, thought I was going 🤪

[@tojeiro_me]

There’s no remedy for the X logo. But I appreciate your video nonetheless.

[@glassowlie]

The logo is still awful!

[@gillianthedesigner]

That's because the concept is awful. For a group of people who are paranoid about getting "canceled", "X" a common symbol of canceling out of something, was a poor choice.

[@0193golu]

Hi will brother, i wanted to know if i can design a logo on my mobile phone or not ? By using photopea software ? Or some free softwares ,can you answer please 😊😊

[@Xexified]

he made a video on this its called vectonater i think

[@tjjoker6563]

I would like to see them give you credit, it it were in fact your input that gave them the idea. Either way, I do find it interesting. Thanks for sharing and not making the video to incredibly long lol.

[@UsmanUsman908-r3d]

Sir I want to start my logo design journey please can you make a video on how to become one.What are the basic fundamental principles should we learn and so other things please

[@ocramocram1]

Go to school. lol

[@TheMetalFreshTiger]

How did you put the logo in the title??? I doubt that it's a custom character that actually already exists

[@EddyTheDesigner]

𝕏

[@TheMetalFreshTiger]

@EddyTheDesigner what if you want to type something else? Like the logo of KZbin 😁

[@EddyTheDesigner]

@@TheMetalFreshTiger You can't. The 𝕏 logo closely resembles this unicode :)

[@SailorFox33]

It's still looks terrible🤮

[@v8superspecial]

it is better indeed... but it still sucks

[@Jakeurb8ty82]

Its still missing the asymmetrical 90 degree outer arms... only dorks call it X

[@itsrickyschannel.]

Its still a rubbish logo, no matter what subtle improvements you suggest. The old twitter bird was always iconic

[@Listaroo]

Valuable advice but they should bring back Twitter, both the name and the logo, almost no one calls it X, and no amount of money will change people's minds, Elon musk should prioritise his business over his Ego, but who knows maybe he wants this controversy so people like me can talk about it lol 😂

[@raak23]

It's still a very uninspiring and badly executed logo. It was a huge mistake to use X as a brand, since it is completely generic and it makes a proper google search virtually impossible.

[@kriss12loverap]

@@raak23 not true, we’ll adapt

[@raak23]

In the end it’s just a matter of taste, but it’s basically an ascii character and as pointed out it was initially very poorly executed. I personally think it looks like it was made by a random intern.

[@AttackonGames]

I hated the logo but I guess now I hate it a little less I forgot it even changed cause I just like see it out of the corner of my eye and it just looks like a plain black x to me 🤣 missing that perfect blue bird logo

[@Honestly15]

l want to come in this graphics design world but l'm scared

[@hind.design]

So you took credit for something that was done completely opposite to what you suggested?

[@ed61730]

I hoped you billed em haha

[@DonoVideoProductions]

I hate overshooting. I see the extra height of rounded letters, and it has always looked wrong to me. I've actually changed the size of these letters when I layout a title so that they hit the ascender and descender lines.

[@hammondztexasu]

I actually pointed it out before you 24. 7. 2023

[@TonZaranza]

Suastic reference

[@onkar5404]

why do you always shake so much???

[@willpatersondesign]

I have restless legs :/

[@NaalebkuurHypolite-qu7zp]

Our industry king of all time. You are great sir. Famz from Ghana 🇬🇭

[@in-housedesign1910]

I'll send Elon a message and get back with you on what he says.

[@willpatersondesign]

hahaha :)

[@fixhead562]

I love the logo it’s simple and to the point. Feel like I’m Elon turn a bird bihhhhb to my EX. Remember the user experience comes first then the logo last once you know what emotion your users feel

[@zachoo7765]

No doubt it's better, but still an ugly logo and an absolutely terrible rebranding to old twitter.

[@IanJones942]

When someone mentions EM my brain automatically goes "...so what?"

[@kevynlevine]

Hat.

[@naomipaterson1097]

❤❤❤

[@Jarrix]

it looks so much better imo

[@tomycox]

This is the worst rebranding in history!😢

[@SarimAshrafi]

But this still is a horrible logo!

[@imjakedeason]

can he just sell twitter to someone who cares about that platform

[@AlexanderY18]

Oh. Another sad lib. Does "caring about the platform" mean caring about the platform being according to your political leaning?

[@ভোমরা]

😂😂😂

[@Just_Ve]

The logo still a stock font tho… not to mention that call it iconic when in fact twitter “X” is not even on the top 10 most popular social media in the world it’s a big of stretch… I really appreciate your work and the whole fix for it worked really well, but we can’t ignore the fact that it’s one of the biggest rebranding fail from the past decade… no matter what they do, everybody still call it Twitter… it’s a good case study of what not to do when working with a rebranding.

[@lumberapple8820]

Poo ❤

[@leoobyy]

No way hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@DDArtsArts]

Bird better

[@yazeed_0o0]

It's still a very terrible logo that offers nothing to the premise of the app or the company. It's just a annoying child's random desires.

[@CineWeekly]

@@yazeed_0o0 Cause a bird said so much about what the company does.... Stupid logic.

[@yazeed_0o0]

@CineWeekly it did for the app. The whole app premise was about people online openly sharing stuff to eaxh other just like birds..

[@amhtt]
