no your kidding me ^_-

i changed the shape a little on purposs so that i don`t have the exact same box shape..

 

furthermore it`s just a wip image.. i might completely redo the idea with another idea.

also it`s not made in vector graphics.. (can`t do that yet) so if in some stage anyone wants to implant it

in the Echo theme they will probably need to "convert" it or remake it in SVG.

 

expect a new wip soon (today or tomorrow)

 

Thanx for the reply`s so far.

1. The needle is too thin and won't show up in small sizes.
2. Why change the typography away from the existing logo?
3. The box design is unfortunately reminiscent of the shape of a new
product box from some other O/S vendor
4. I'm not sure the overall color complements the rest of Echo.
