#6 - 😎

[tastetwist]

#6 is the best logo 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

[suneesees]

I like #6, I agree with @kindgirls reasoning.
It is the most practical one.

[kindgirls]

#6 - its the most practical one, you need to think of how the logo will be used on a website and within steemit itself, the other logos are good but cant easily be used on a web page and within steemit, that's just my 2 cents.

[hasan019]

I like 6

[steemfuture]

#6

[thekittygirl]

For a logo/mascot design, I like № 5 and № 6 equally.
№ 5 is more "mascot-y" and № 6 is more "logo-y."
№ 6 would make a good "avatar"/"profile image" for posting.
And I agree with @kindgirls comment, so № 6 gets my vote!
All are good designs, though!

[klickslave]

Hard decision ... i choose #6

[shadowbot]

Exactly now you see why we couldn't just pick one.. It was hard enough choosing just 7 finalists!

[suikka]

#6 these perfect

[artlover]

Many Thanks to those who voted for me. Really appreciate it :D. I am confused between #3, #4 and #5. I vote for @mendezand - #5.

[dickturpin]

So they're all awesome pictures, and I cannot draw for toffee but I'm not sure we want a menacing logo, after all, we're supposed to be supporting one another not vapourising all before us?

I'd like to see something along the lines of a guardian angel although I'm not keen on any religious imagery either hopefully you get my drift?

[shadowbot]

I get conflicted, part of me wants something sweet and innocent but part of me wants people to realize ShadowBot is bad ass! We have also discussed something pretty neat we will announce after this post expires I think we will all like!

[dickturpin]

A shadowbot superhero character would be good? Must have a cape though. :-D

"something pretty neat we will announce(d)"

Own personal whale?

$1bn SBD?

42bn SP?

4m Followers all saying "Your post changed my life, please follow and upvote me."?

Free introduction to @cheetah and all the benefits of its attention?

Oh I know.

Shadowbots very own member ranking system. \o/

#hugs ;-)

[shadowbot]

I wish $1bln SBD and 42bln SP! lol and all the blatant spam posts should be ignored. We do have our own ranking "Shadow Rank" though!

[dickturpin]

It's not very good. I'm not in the top 10 ;-)

[duckmast3r]

I will choose number 6.

[arbitrarykitten]

Everyone did a stellar job!

After looking, and relooking...

I am going to say #1

Out of all of the entries it is the most eye catching. The blue eyes really capture your attention and cause you to want to look more, immediately. For attention capitol and design- looks like a lot of time went into the design, definitely # 1 :)

He plagiarized it.

[thelifestyler]

Pretty much everyone here plagiarized. None of the images are or fully original. However these 7 were chosen because they are best edits. Are you trying to prove a point? Are you saying that shadowbot doesn't know what they want? They do! They want a good image. Majority of pics on your posts are plagiarized Mr. Anti-plagiarism

[shadowbot]

What is original work?

"William Shakespeare's world renowned Romeo and Juliet (written sometime between 1591 and 1595) stands in the historical record as one of the greatest love stories ever written. It is most interesting to discover then, that Romeo and Juliet was not, in fact, truly of his own creation, but rather a variation on a story told many times from the fourteen hundreds onwards."

• ancient-origins.net History Romeo and Juliet not Shakespearean Tale After All - http://www.ancient-origins.net/history/romeo-and-juliet-not-shakespearean-tale-after-all-003155

[thelifestyler]

Okay well I guess everything is a modded redezign such as steemit from reddit, Shakespeare, etc.

[ghayas]

Clearly No. 1. It seems more of a relevant to the concept of 'Shadow Bot'.

[fatpandadesign]

It's plagiarized.

[thelifestyler]

It is OWNED by me. Now go eat some bamboo and stop spamming. Spammers aren't appreciated here and neither is your opinion

[thelifestyler]

I vote #1 100%

[cryptokeepr]

I like entry #1 by @thelifestyler

[jonbit]

They are all very good, I do like the changing robot head to SB of #2 but I would want that with one of the other like #5 or #6 but they would have to change it a little more maybe colors to part from the original "inspiration". It wouldn't be that hard to do. I do like the superhero type of #3 So maybe #2 and #3 mixed. If i had to pick only one it would be #3

[farhannaqvi7]

i like first one

[aggroed]

Lots of good entries. I think 1 is pretty cool.

[simnrodrguez]

Without doubt the design of (1) @thelifestyler is the winner for me!

[sexualhealing]

wow its amazing ! loved it !

[mendezand]

Hello, I found this pack on the web. I think it is not wrong to use resources and add personal touches, but this and these designs are already made.

I do not seek to disparage anyone, it's just a remark.

[shadowbot]

Are you saying they did not make the design and should be disqualified?

[mendezand]

It's an observation, the rules do not depend on me. It seems unfair to me that a user receives rewards for something that was already done.

[byronviljoen]

Whats the actual issue here?, there were no rules specified at the beginning of the contest. Its a free vector based graphic that i made a logo out of. It suited shadow bot perfectly, why reinvent the wheel. " I think it is not wrong to use resources" yeah right buddy....

[byronviljoen]

[mendezand]

I'm not hiding anything. I also used web resources, but I added personal touches. If they are there to use and customize, not just copy and paste. In short, I do not seek to create conflict, I am not a judge, I am not the creator of the contest, as I said from the beginning it is an observation.

[byronviljoen]

Dude you essentially did the exact same thing as i did, except my vector is labelled for re-use. Did you purchase yours?

[byronviljoen]

Anyways, im not going to argue. Lets just leave it at that.

[kmabbasi]

#1 is the best than the rest

Thanks,

[bigdeej]

Gotta go with 3 just love how it reminds me of the old school sonic robotnik style robots he sent out to take over the world! Really perfect and spot on great details and the SB logo on his "chetst" over all think this is a home run!

[manorvillemike]

#4

[futurehuman]

This doesn't say what the contest is for, but looks like it's for a logo for a bot on Steemit? I like #4. It's the most human and creative-- reminds me of film noir and features the Steemit logo.

[shadowbot]

yes was our logo/mascot design contest from last week: https://steemit.com/contest/@shadowbot/design-shadowbot-mascot-and-logo-chance-to-win-50-sbd-design-contest

Why did you Reblog this post on my profile???

I have kept the resteem option as Off and still you broke that and reblogged your post. This is not good.

And the only person earning good money with Shadow bot is you.

[shadowbot]

I removed you from our system. And for your information Total Shadow Rewards: 2,242.84537718 SBD
Past Week Shadow Rewards: 1,435.32910875 SBD
Shadowbot has earned: 114.00694521 SBD of that

[imransoudagar]

Now why did you remove me from Shadow bot???

And look at all the posts that you have reblogged, each of them have earned good SBD. And the posts where you didn't reblog you have earned very less SBD.

I want you to add me back to Shadowbot because for the post many weeks I have stopped upvoting other posts and gave full control over my account. And I want to earn that back.

[shadowbot]

I assumed you wanted to be removed as you said we do not benefit you.

We pay for all our server(s) and development costs without asking for 1 penny or SBD from anyone to use our services and provide over 95% of our total voting power back to other members. We also are givig 50 SBD (nearly half of our 9 weeks of earnings here on steemit) to the winner of this contest for designing something awesome for us!

If you feel we are some how benefiting unfairly I employ you to do the realization of how much time, effort and cost went into building something that has generated you personally over 4% of your SP in the last week alone..

Simply rejoin and I will monitor things for future issues. Auto re-steem is OFF by default for all new members so you should not have any issues. Thanks again!

[imransoudagar]

My question in the first comment was why did you reblog and nothing else.

I have kept the reblog setting off and I expect Shadowbot to respect that setting. How can I trust when you yourself do not follow your settings?

And regarding my comment that only you benefit, it means that by Reblogging without our will you are getting more upvotes. Anyways it doesn't matter as long as you follow our settings.

Now that everything is clear, I want you to reinstate my old Shadow Rank that is 10. I have let Shadowbot complete control and would love to be part of it in future too.

[shadowbot]

You are at 12 Shadow Rank (see other reply) and if you have Re-Steem set to "Off" it will not pull you at all for any resteeming of any posts from anyone, including shadowbot's posts.

[shadowbot]

I gave you a 2% Shadow Rank boost. Don't abuse it!

[imransoudagar]

Thank you.

I know you work hard, you will earn it all back soon. Keep working!

[shadowbot]

Believe it or not we aren't doing this to directly earn from shadowbot, we really do believe in steemit and want to see as many earn from minnow to whale so no one feels like it isn't worth sticking around. The hardest thing is for new members to join and earn nothing. Thanks for being involved again I will add you to our debug list and monitor specifically for your account to ensure this does not happen again!

[dotty1112]

Number 3 is the best of the out the entries!

[ckbahdon]

very hard decision i chose 5,but my shadowbot rank is 5 and it just gives me 2% upvotes what went wrong

[shadowbot]

please refer to our voting policy updates over the past few months to understand what is going on.

What is the Shadow Divider?
The Shadow Divider is currently 2. Shadow Divider is the amount your Shadow Rank is divided by for Up Vote Strength (rounded down). Example: If your Shadow Rank is 10 and the Shadow Divider is 4, your posts will receive 2% strength up votes {floor(10/4)=2}.
