New Delhi: Zoho co-founder Sridhar Vembu has shared the old logo of his company which he had himself created way back in 1997 on Microsoft Paint. It was earlier called ‘Adventnet’ which was rebranded to Zoho in 2010. He has taken a dig in the crude design of logo by asking to the netizens whether he has any hope as a logo designer.
Suddenly I felt a rush of nostalgia for this logo I designed for our company, then named AdventNet, circa 1997. I designed it on Microsoft Paint using all the design skills I could muster and it served as our logo all the way till 2009.
