Just saw the Aussie's new promo graphic and press release. Amongst a few things about it that I find a bit sad and unimaginative, is how the artwork is so eerily similar (the circular branding over the main graphic) to the BritFloyd graphic.

At the end of the day I suppose both bands artwork is obviously based upon the work of Pink Floyd's original artists (Scarfe and Thorgerson), but considering how I created the BritFloyd's logo graphic (which has been online for well over a week now), it all seems to be a bit too much of a coincidence that the Aussies have now come up with a new logo of their own (published for the first time today on their website) which happens to so closely resemble the BritFloyd's logo...

BK... While the circle element is a natural for obvious reasons I was a bit surprised you went with the shape of the country theme again after you used it so heavily in the previous incarnation of TAPFS.

Sorry, but I didn't create the Australia/Prism artwork (if that's what you're referring too...?, Actually I always thought it was a profile of kangaroos head), now I could of simply created a British Isles/Prism like logo similar to the image tapfs has used all these years but that would've been a bit daft and cheesy, don't you think?

I don't want to start a fight, I just think this is all becoming ridiculously silly very fast.

Sorry BK, I thought you'd created all of the stuff I've seen since '06 with TAPFS. Please understand I'm a fan of your work and had the thought you just mentioned when I first saw TBPFS's new logo due to that. I can't wait to see what you come up with for TBPFS first N.A. tour!

Cheers and Thank You Cevor,

TAPFS' official 6 logo graphics, as seen on the background of their website were in fact created by Colin Wilson, who is himself a graphic Artist, I cannot take any credit for those, I only brought them to life by animating them in various ways for the show.

And I look forward to greatly improving on much of my original work in the years to come!

Thank you again for the compliment!
