The cool animation at the top of the page over-sells what this site is providing by a factor of 1000. I was expecting some type of neat morphing between various logos over time.

It's funny... I posted something similar yesterday that (IMO) is much more informative but didn't get any attention: http://www.sketchdeck.com/blog/less-is-more-our-analysis-of-... Must be the fun animations that sell this.

I found your post much more informative and interesting. The animations I think are detrimental since you can't do a side-by-side comparison.

The Volkswagen Swastika is pretty interesting, hadn't seen that before.

while it is a swastika, it is modeled after biplane wings

i think the author is trying to make a buck selling ready made logos for silly unicorns...

Move fast and break things. You won't get the logo correct in the first iteration.

There seems to be a takeaway though - complex logos eventually get replaced.
