Some time ago Taranto Soccer Club has started a Pitch on BootB called “New Logo of Taranto Sport Soccer Club“. It was a long and tough race with more than 500 Solutions published.
There were many interesting logos proposed and you can see five of them in the “Short-list by Taranto: 5 great Solutions” blog post.
But today we are happy to present you a winning logo and its author - GARAGELAND. Congratulations!
By the way, there is a new official website of Taranto. You may be interested to take a look:
Last week Interbrand in association with Businessweek have released an annual ranking of the 100 “Best Global Brands” by brand value.
While the first five rows are the same as in the 2008 (Coca-Cola, IBM, Microsoft, GE and Nokia) only two leaders have shown growth and the following giants have lost some value. In general the list is not surprising: banks and auto brands are falling (Merrill Lynch was No.34 last year and now they are out of list completely, UBS has fallen 31 places losing 50% of brand’s value and Harley-Davidson has lost 43%) while internet and food brands are growing (Google is already No. 7 with 25% growth in 2009 and 43% in 2008, Amazon, Zara and Nestle are among top gainers as well).

It worth spending some time to check full report on Iterbrand.
Il Maestro
From the name it’s clear that using this technique you have to apply paint with your fingers. According to Wikipedia, it was originally formulated in 1931 as an art education medium for small children. You can find a special non-toxic paint to be used or you can prepare it yourself from flour or cornstarch.
Here is another, more modern way to paint with your fingers. You will need no paint and no paper. Just an iPhone or iPod Touch :)
Here are some amazing fingerpaintings done by Matthew Watkins on his iPhone. You can find much more in his personal blog. If you are interested, have a look at fingerpainted.it - the blog which aims to be a place for artist-portraits, for painting-related app-reviews and of course a place for the overwhelming diversity of the artwork itself.

First of all we’d like to ask you to be patient as the Winning Solution of “New Logo of Taranto Sport Soccer Club” Pitch is not disclosed to the public yet! We expect this to happen during September 2009.
Then, it’s a pleasure for us to present you a short-list of 5 great Solutions chosen by Taranto Sport. These Solutions were kept as good ones and considered by the Brand as really well done.
Let’s start!
