Google Chrome steals logo from QQ.com?

[C++]

Maybe the Pokeball logo is Google's way of telling us we're their pets? :shiftyninja:

when i first saw it, did look like something i've seen before :p

That logo concept is generic by now, there's no point in arguing who stole it from whom and who came up with it first.

It is pretty hard not to have a logo resemble something else now-a-days. There are billions of webpages and hundreds of thousands of companies in the U.S. alone. It is very, very hard to come up with something that is completely unique.

It's conceptually close but not artistically close. The Chrome logo is conceptually close to a lot of things (including Simon and Pokemon balls).

Generic colours in a circle, has been on I'm sure hundreds of other designs are similar in some shape or form too, and Google have used those colours for years and years.

Welcome to the internet, lots of things look like lots of other things. :p

Lol the guy who designed this logo probably thought he was being so original... :p Wait 'till he reads this thread.

Design any icon, someone can probably find on on the internetz that looks nearly the same.

well, if the logo is really so "generic" like many people here says, then I propose a challenge, find another logo other than Chrome and QQ.com that meets the following criteria :

1) have red, yellow and green colors following each other to form a circle (and I'll loosen the restriction a bit, so it does not have to be red, yellow and green in clockwise arrangement like Chrome and QQ.com, you can have red, green, yellow in clockwise too)

2) have something of a blue color in the center.

Personally I haven't see another logo look like that, so I'd like to see how generic it really is :)

Similar but not enough to think anything of it.
