I would use both the first and last one shown on my phone.

Rainman, should have done this as a multiple select poll... Not sure if you can get it modified now, but that would probably work better.

I got confused because you had 1 and 2 bunched together. My vote for 7 should have been for 8. :doh!:

Logo 1 gets my vote, unless you'd really prefer Box to be capitalized. I don't like logo 1 if the B gets capitalized.

I like the concept of the S in the hexagon for logo 1, but I'd love for it to somehow be sand instead of metallic.

Thanks for the input so far, everybody. This is going to be a tough decision.

Deep down inside you know that #11 makes the most sense, is the most imaginative, the most captivating and the one that took the most vision to create.

#2 sucks, it makes no sense. It's an S in a box.... and the font is complete garbage.

#1 is classy, clean and to the point and is the safest pick but it's not as good as #11.

You know this, Rain Man.

;)

Got anything with a dick in a box? That's an eye-grabber.

I like the idea of the castle, but it should look more like a sand creation, like mostly pail shaped with the lugs cutout around the parapet.

Definitely #2 or #11.

As somebody who worked in the graphic design / printing industry for a while, If I had to recommend any of these to a client, it would be #11. It's the only one, in my opinion, that stands out and would be easily recognizable against any other logo for any other company, which is important.

The very last one.

This is exactly why it's #11... the whole point of calling the company Sandbox simulations is to evoke images of building things in a sandbox. #11 is the only logo that supports that concept.

Most of the rest just look like logos.

I mean seriously, who thinks a sandbox is a CUBE?

Prior to this thread, we were leaning toward either #2 or #7. However, after listening to the discussion we have changed course and are going with #11. We always thought it had nailed the concept well, and our only concern was whether it was fancy/artistic enough. Apparently it was.

We also liked the flexibility of this design, wherein we can slightly alter it to portray the names of future products. Most of the other designs didn't offer that.

I imagined this . with a guy just reaching down and writing sandbox simulation in the sand.

or start with a space view of earth , like google earth and then have it go from space view right down to your location with a similar pic with either the guy writing it in the sand or it already written. Just an idea.

7 is the best.
