We recently asked you to pick our new logo, and the response was pretty incredible – if we learned anything, it’s that people have pretty strong opinions when it comes to design! Thanks to all 181 people that voted or left comments.

Here is the winner, with some slight tweaks we made based on your feedback. As you’ll notice, we’re now using this logo all over the site.

It was a tight race. The winning logo got 33%, with the second place finisher at 29% and the logo we had been using at 23% (we keep waiting for someone to bring up hanging chads). Given the fact that there was no clear consensus, we may revisit the issue later on. If you’ve got more ideas or advice to share, let us know in the comments or by email.

And don’t forget to sign up to be a beta tester here!

We trust the wisdom (and design sense) of the crowd – so we want your opinion.

Help us choose a logo for MixedInk! Vote for the version you like best in the poll below before the end of the week.

When you vote, keep in mind what MixedInk is: a democratic writing tool that enables groups to express collaborative opinions. It’s sort of like a wiki, only lots of people can contribute at the same time, and the end result is a more democratic reflection of participants’ viewpoints.

Lastly, if you’ve got any more specific improvements to suggest, then put them in the comments. We’ll be reading closely!

If you want to continue to be a part of MixedInk’s growth, please sign up! We’re currently looking for beta testers.
