Angry Scotts & the Quark Logo

Media_httpstaticflick_sfxzv
Seems that Quark is getting quite a lot of heat from the design community after someone discovered that its new logo is identical to the Scottish Art Council's (and hundreds of others). I quite like it, I like the colour, I like the fact that it looks like a Q and an ink pen but I could have also told you that somebody somewhere would have the exact same logo (or the same font). While the SAC adopted the brand in 2001, Quark seems to be the only one that sports a little TM. It will be interesting to see how this pans out.
