coincidence or compliment?

I've been meaning to post this for awhile. Gordon Wong designed our simple, elegant Grace logo. . .

It is serving us well. But check this out. . . .

There's all kinds of stuff with similar logos sold at Nordstrom and all over the web by Philosophy Cosmetics.

Imitation is the highest form of compliment.

Sue em, Gordon! No, you better not. . .

Oh man, Kevin and I have been laughing about this ever since the new Grace logo was designed--my mom has some of the "grace" shower gel!

I'm glad we're not the only ones who noticed!

The funny thing I never saw this. Didn't know who designed it first...them or me.

I was so floored that I bought a tabloid magazine to see this.

Just goes to show there's no new idea under the sun EXCEPT for King David's idea of building God a dwelling place, and even the Lord said, "I DIDNT TELL YOU THAT!"

That's pretty funny. If you look closely, though, it's actually a different font. It's pretty darn close but not exact. The difference is mostly in the "g".

Sometimes I can't decide if attention to detail is a blessing or a curse.
