Word. You're right. I was over-hypey :D It doesn't totally pass the silhouette test. It could with a thin edge of negative space in between each color block, OR... if we allowed a grey "cheat" in our silhouette test.

These kinda shape logos aren't just awesome for print, but in tiny places like web footers, twitter avatars, etc.

And for anybody in the thread rackin' their brain trying to figure out what we're talking about. Picture the Nike swoosh, or the Apple-missing-a-bite apple. With no gradients, colors, or shadows, their shape alone is recognizable.

This doesn't mean their every use + instance is this plain, but their logos survive such a deconstruction. It REALLY comes in handy.
