Keyword Search Bar
Once I figured out what it did, it was really great for finding exactly the symbol I needed. Perhaps you can make it more obvious what it is and what it does. Great feature!

Thank you both for you feedback on the search refinement.
Help and support is integral to our site, we working rapidly to add on demand tips and comprehensive guides.
It is our ambition to provide the most relevant results for any search, we have invested a lot of time in developing our matching technology and continuously work on improving it. Our search engine Cerebrum pulls apart the brand name and
uses these extracts to locate similar and related from all over the internet, then classifies them, matching them to our logos, colours and fonts. We have a number of builds planned that will utilise our search engine in different ways and one of these is similar to our original closed beta brand value questionnaire.We are also researching a number of different ways to strengthen the functionality of the refinement search bar and how this can best be experienced.… more

Show how many others have used the same logo
My main concern is too many other companies/products will end up using the same logo (be in a different colour scheme).
If you showed the number of people using it then if it were zero you could offer an exclusive rights to the brand created (more specifically removing the logo from the site after purchase) at a higher cost to the user.
6 votesplanned ·Hello Steve
Thank you for your suggestions. An indication of usage for each individual logo, and offering exclusivity on those haven’t yet to be downloaded is a great idea. Providing exclusive logos has always been an integral part of buildabrand’s proposition. This is planned for a future release, but in the meantime exclusivity on logos can be arranged by contacting us directly. We have provided this service for a number of our customers. Please read more about exclusivity and other purchase options for from this link: http://buildabrand.com/bb/logos

Overall really good - a few minor tweaks needed
Having seen the new version before I had a fair idea of what to do. One element which would benefit from re-wording is the search refinement bar. I was not sure what it was for as the main brand entry bar is directly above it. The text used in the "Help" page is perfect. Would it be possible to add a pop up of that help text when on an IP's first visit to the site? A "never show this again" check box would prevent any user being annoyed by it repetitively.
The only other tweak I noticed was that… more

instant domain search
Have you considered integrating with InstantDomainSearch.com
(or copying their functionality) in some way?For me domain name is the first place I look when creating a new brand name.
3 votesunder review ·Hello Toby
Thank you for your recommendation and connecting! Providing domain names alongside brand products and logos is one of the features we plan to add to buildabrand. Adding a domain name check during the logo creation process is an excellent suggestion, I’ll discuss this with our CTO and review the possibilities for adding the InstantDomainSearch.com’s widget or an alternative.

A few thoughts - as an older user, I don't like words like 'awesome' which
have a 'faux' enthusiasm about them. All the other wording fine. Casual friendliness os good, but don't shut out other age groups who often have money! Had trouble at first stopping colour card swing off found ikons (so couldn't easily try out each ikon in different colours as I browsed, which I thought was the point of showing the colour range with the ikon). Finally found a way to change colour which, of course, is beneath the ikon after choice - would be good to see image in different colours before choosing. I like my brand very much (for 'writer';… more

Firefox Support!
Firefox 9 is not quite "a browser that is a little out of date."

We perform feature detection – this must be the issue as yes, Firefox 9 is most definitely up-to-date. Will investigate

re-editing, extra button, guidance
1) Just as a thought, it would be great to be able to edit the symbols once you have saved them and they appear in the left column.
2) I would further like to be able to change the brand name without being sent back to the start
3.) the "return to the selection" button could be placed on top of the brand manager as this is the place that I would look first.
4.) the variation of the logo on the business card (the more creative ones) impressed me a lot and could be shown alongside the classic ones… more1 votestarted ·Hello Karen
Thank you for all your feedback! I have responded to each one of your points below (1,2,3 & 4 are completed and 5 is planned for a future release):
1. Any brand you make and save can now be edited. Simply click on the ‘View My Brands’ tab, find the the logo you wish to remove and select ‘Customise and edit logo’ from the drop down menu.
2. In our recently update logo builder you can now change the name, font, colours and edit the symbol at the same time.
3. The ‘return to the selection’ button has been removed and is no longer required in our improved experience.
4. We are putting together the final touches to our new business card builder which will deliver a completely different experience, a larger choice of business cards and a far superior set of features. We’ll let you know as… more
