Of course everyone is entitled to their taste. But this logo situation is really sad. I think Mephane is correct in his estimation that the logos are semi-permanent. So I am almost thinking I will need to organize an extermination campaign just to cleanse the universe of tacky logos. Sirius is just the first and most offensive of the lot. Quickly followed by Antal's bouncy castle, and Lavignly's droopy eagle. The rest are safe... for now.

You asked for it, so my railing shall start soon. Your idea is ridiculous. You are completely ignorant of everything involving Sirius. You obviously have no aesthetic sense. Your logos are horrible. Rail, rail, rail,rail,rail..... And that was just warm-up. (You did say "feel free to rail", so I'm only doing what you told me to do)Wow, it is so ugly I couldn't see that it was obviously supposed to be an S. My mind is blown. Not at the revelation that is an "S" but rather because even now when I look it, I am still so dazzled by the hideousness of the "S" symbol that I can only see fangs that seriously need some chlorine bleach and a toothbrush. Sorry if this offends any Siriuns out there. But I am actually dead serious: this is one fugly logo. So without vomiting more hatred at the neon S-tooth-hoolahoop, I will just let you know that I updated the OP with a half dozen alternative Sirius LOGO suggestions. Please take a look and see if any of them offend you as much as my honest opinion of the current Sirius radioactive-fang-vomit "logo". Your feedback and facepalms are appreciated equally.
YES I REALIZE THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO DISCUSS. SUCH AS WHY HORIZONS IS SO EXPENSIVE, WHY COMBAT LOGGING IS FROM SATAN, PLUS THE OBLIGATORY 210+ PAGES WORTH OF OPEN VS SOLO AD HOMINEMS. BUT THIS IS MY PET PEEVE FOR THE DAYSO FEEL FREE TO RAIL AT THIS POST. OR ME. OR JOIN ME AND RAIL AT THE UGLY LOGO ITSELF. BUT MOST OF ALL, IF YOU CARE AS MUCH AS I DO ABOUT MEANINGLESS APPEARANCES IN A VIDEO GAME WITH A WONKY AND RARELY USED 3RD PERSON CAMERA WHERE YOUR SHIP IS USUALLY TOO DARK TO SEE ANYWAY, PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR OWN IDEA OF WHAT MAKES A PERFECT LOGO PERFECT. ON THE OFF CHANCE THAT FD FINALLY ALLOWS US TO PASTE OUR FACTION LOGO AS A LIVERY DECAL.
At the very least Sirius didn't steal their logo right off

When corporations try to be creative, the result is usually pathetic. The corporate imagination is like the shriveled husk that represented voldemorts shattered soul in kings cross station. This is why they steal ideas from creatives and wiki-blahblah. But unfortunately, you're right, these demon babies found a highlighter pen and dreamed small, real small. Thus the s fang was spawned in a grave yard cauldron by a coven of stunted minds at Sirius.gov.
I'm trying to recall if the Sirius Corp advertisements you used to see on billboards around starports back in FE2/FFE had a logo on them. I definitely remember the Core Dynamics and Vega Line advertisements. I'm pretty sure they did have a logo: very similar to the current Sirius Gov logo, except the ring wasn't on an angle. Anybody got a working copy of either game, to check?
If my assumption is correct, then the Sirius Gov logo is derived from the Sirius Corp logo (just as Mahon's logo is derived from the Alliance one) and your campaign is doomed to fail, because you're fighting against the established lore.

The Sirius logo in FE2 became the federations logo in FFE.... It was the 6 pointed star think a sheriffs badge. Hmmmm
Can a mod please close this thread? It's making me think of way too many bad Sirius-Serious joke.

Have been signed up with Sirius Corp for 9 weeks now and honestly didn't realise that the logo was supposed to be an S, thought it was some weird double horned thing. Don't feel any better about it now that I know what it's supposed to be.

It's bad enough that his faction's color looks like a highlighter ink. But the LOGO ??? Clearly, this after thought faction drew the short straw on the PP logo roulette. What exactly is that symbol supposed to be anyway? A ringed planet that exploded into the shape of two fangs? I am being perfectly serious when I say, that his LOGO is the major reason why I cannot join his power, or take it seriously. Nevermind that it has the weakest lore and pretext for existence possible. A greedy company that pays 3x the usual amount for useless exploration data? Yeah, that's plausible. If it had been a science based faction like Antal's, the rank 5 bonus might make more sense. Or if we could colonize planets after gathering enough exploration data... but still, those utterly stupid fangs make me think, "if FD ever allows us to paint our ships or have faction Logo's, I would never go out in public looking like a Vampire Sharpie"

For comparison, look at the Alliance logo. I HATE trading to death, because it is utterly and unceasingly boring. But Mahon's logo screams "join US! we are the cool power that every one want's to say they are a part of, like being Irish on St. Patty's day in Boston
Apparently this is supposed to be an "S". In which case here is a small mountain of superior S logos for FD to "borrow" ideas from in case they decided that Sirius Corp wants to rebrand itself:

All your examples are bland and boring.
The Sirius Logo however is exciting and bold, it screams:
Explore and take the world!
Mahon did steal the Logo from the Alioth Independents. Nothing more to expect from a money-grabbing bureaucrat.
The last thing we need are doggone puns.
