no it was guido.

if anything to me once comparing the 2 together side by side it looks like it is the exact butterfly with a plus shape cut ou of it like as if it was done with a cookie cutter. maybe its just me

Yes the Old One is very simple lol. It Looks Like Patchou did it in paint or something
the new one looks better [ in my mind ]

wrogn, it was Guido and he didnt do any swirling...... atually he didn't take a butterfly to do the logo

conclusion, no butterflys were hurt in the Plus! logo production

Thank god, that rule doesn't exist.

The Plus 1 logo was just changed because we appeared , but Patchou didn't like the idea of having MS images in his software, unless the plain buddy used for the purpose of referencing Messenger status, etc. Especially since his software was becoming more and more popular.

Good for you but... urh... NO again

The logo has the same colors of the MSN butterfly (that was Patchou's wish from the beggining, it had to be recognised as MSN Messenger-related). The shape is not MSN's butterfly swirled or anything, its (as chromo said) a design done from scratch, inspired by the MSN logo and the "!" used in Plus!1.

It's similar to the MSN logo for obvious reasons.
