Hi,
As I said before, I'm thinking that square version could be some icon that
we already don't have and represents Flex. It should have a good
combination with this anagram. Make a square version of this logo is near
impossible since is designed to be wide and flatten.

Disagree. The uncompleted arc makes the logo more mysterious and
challenging leaving a longer impression on the viewer. At the same time,
the word is that much easier to read. I just love how the arc also

Hi Peter, Jonathan Jun
Thanks for your input!
Up until recently I only made simple logos with few colors. This design is
indeed complex, built on fine grained shades in color. Why?
In my day-to-day-work I've found out that information
IMHO, the current logo is not best suited for this new journey. Let me
explain.
The Adobe Flex logo was part of a huge suite of Adobe Software that all
shares a common style. Maintaining the actual logo with few changes should
bring Adobe problems, and I doubt that Adobe allow to use the actual
It's true we've come a long way with technology... but there is one _major_
consideration for the final logo. It needs to bode-well on a t-shirt. ;-)

I think the logo should be very simple, but at the same time transmit some
idea/emotion that describes Flex.
For example, for me the three words that identify Flex are:
* User Experience
- effective gradients can work in a non line art version (note html5 logo)
