I just stumbled on a wonderful little mail app that appears to one-up Thunderbirds excellent useability and features.

It's called Postbox and despite how I'm starting off praising the excellent features of this neat little program, I actually do have something design related to talk about! I was surfing the Postbox website, and while reading through their "About" section I came across a sub-link directing me to learn a little more about the designer who had created the Postbox logo!

With most corporate sites, there is hardly any dedication towards the graphics and designers of their wonderful brand image, but this was very different and even goes as far as allowing us to see the excellent development of the Postbox logo! EXCITING!

The logo is designed by a very talented designer by the name of Mike Rohde and a more complete bio on him can be found on the Postbox website here.

Without further ado, I present you the image set on Flickr that documents the initial concepts to the finalized product! It's great to see it unfold like this!
