Hmmm....

We introduced our new branding way back in this post:  Bebb Studios...what's that?

*** UPDATE:  when researching their site, it looks like this was introduced in June or July of 2007.  I wonder what their designer has to say about that?  It's horrible to see designers selling so-called original concepts to their clients and then leaving them to deal with the fall out of a duplicated concept.  In a way I feel sorry for the people at positively posh, but as a consumer, they also have a responisbility to be aware of what is out there.  I hope they get their money back and find a more "original" designer for their next logo.***

A number of people have emailed us about this.  

I'm just saying....

What's the problem? They have 16 dots, you only have 9. I think you have dot envy! :)

Yipes!! Well, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

If only dots were the problem Erik. :-)

Dawn...that second one is not ours, nor do we have anything to do with that company. I'm just letting everyone draw their own conclusions. :)

WOW!!!! RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!! CLEEEEEEARLY a copycat! At least they could have tried covering it up with different colors, different fonts, SOMETHING!

In their defense, I'm wondering if they hired a design firm and they're totally unaware of the similarities.

Jerks.

I think they should call themselves "Positively Unoriginal".
February 8, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterHeather Cole
thats crazy! I would do something about it.
February 8, 2008 | Unregistered Commenterben spell
Um, yeah. Blatant imitation. Did you trademark your logo? What a PITA...
February 8, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterBitter
Wow! But they used all capitals.... Makes me giggle.... what a pain!
February 8, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterLeslie Gilbert
I mean, they did use all capital letters...you gotta give 'em that. ;)

That's positively un-posh. :-(

You know this has to get slightly annoying. I mean come on, could it be any clearly copied!!! But again, you do still have less dots ;) LOL Sorry Jen I couldn't resist.

I wonder if they actually paid someone to come up with their logo? That would be sucky for them as well.

We've decided to rename StillMotion:- Bebb Studios. That's ok right? :)
February 10, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterJohn Edgar
Is it POSSIBLE that they had theirs first? Not that you copied.... but that maybe no one copied? It's unlikely, but I just try to think from every angle...
February 11, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterSteph
We certainly looked into that, Steph, and no, they did not have their logo before we did.
February 11, 2008 | Registered CommenterJen Bebb
If it's any consolation, yours looks better!
February 12, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterCharlotte Geary
Wow, shameless!
February 13, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterMichael Corsentino
LOL...I immediately thought you guys were going into a new business! then I read the post. If you had shares in the Company, you'd make a mint cos everyone will go there thinking they are going to get the same incredible two people they get at Bebb....be interested to see what new logo they come up with THIS week.
