Uncanny Similarities Between Two Company Logos Of Local Startups
This came to my attention when Claudia messaged me over WLM saying that I should visit this particular website and look at the link. I am quite sure Claudia wouldn’t send me a porn link during office hours and so I clicked on it without hesitation and got directed to a local website and my eyes popped out of their sockets and my jaw dropped to the floor when I saw the company logo.
This is the company logo of the new website Muilee.
For those who are familar with the company that I am working for, your jaws must be dropping too as well.
Presenting, Yebber‘s logo…
WAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!
In order to not bring trouble onto myself, let me just say that I find the logo of Muilee very, very similar to Yebber’s. I am NOT implying in any way that they blatantly copied Yebber’s logo of course. Obviously there are differences in the logos!
I just notice someeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee similarities that I will like to mention.
Oh look! Similarly coloured subtext! Oh wait! It’s actually in different shades. Muilee can’t be copying Yebber! No wayyyyyy!
Oh look! EXACT coloured text! Oh wait! It’s actually with different letters. Muilee can’t be copying Yebber! No wayyyyyy!
Oh look! EXACT coloured symbols and white letters inside! Oh wait! It’s actually flipped over with a much pointed tip. Muilee can’t be copying Yebber! No wayyyyyy!
A company’s logo is their brand and being that important, I am sooooooooo sureeeeeeeeeee that MuiLee can’t have copied Yebber’s logo that blatantly.
No wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy~~~!!!!

Yebber’s logo contains the word “Singapore” while MuiLee’s one doesn’t. Nah, they’re not a copycat.

Colour combination of green, blue and pink are quite commonplace for design aesthetic.
The comma / quotation marks are different designs, so its not the same.
One can even argue that Yebber got the colour scheme / design cues from other sites. The use of quotation mark in logo is not unique to Yebber.

Think you should pursue this matter with the web design team behind MuiLee – http://www.osweb2design.com/
Seems like the site designs are both derived from the same template in Joomla.

hendri> Yes! Just like what I noticed *cough*
molemole> Different! Look closely! :p
sham> hey thanks dude! But like I said in plurk, no need for actions right now.
Miccheng> Well, you are the 1st who thinks that their logo isn’t a copy from Yebbers. I beg to differ. Just too many similarities to be a matter of chance. And the website template isn’t part of my considerations.
Jason Ho> Don’t think so dude!

sylv> Thanks for pointing it out but there are so many other websites and so I don’t think it’s hers. Will ask her if I see her the next time!
Aileen> There’s no need. Yebber is fine with it.

Thanks for the info!

If only I could own so many businesses.
I used to design for them on a freelance basis. But now the name is there “for show” only. Haven’t done anything with them for as long as I can remember. (Though I wouldn’t mind if they throw some projects my way.)
(Imagine me saying this with a giggle, it’s not meant to be offensive.) Don’t need to ask me next time you see me. Even if I’m lazy to design a logo I wouldn’t copy one from people I know. Unless I have permission to do so of course.

Glad that you clarified it. Thanks!
