On this day I will contribute by creating a logo, as usual, when I am browsing on google playstore I found a very interesting application that is Unit Converter Ultimate, Unit Converter Ultimate is a simple and easy-to-use unit converter to handle any conversion you'll ever need.
The beautiful Material Design user interface allows for quick and easy conversions from a number in one unit to another. The goal is to keep it simple - you won't be overwhelmed with an excess of options and settings, allowing you to perform your desired conversion as quickly as possible. Perfect for work, school or in the kitchen.
Available unit conversions include:
- Currency (US dollar, CDN dollar, pound, peso, etc)
- Temperature (celsius, fahrenheit, kelvin, etc)
- Length (kilometer, miles, meter, yard, feet, etc)
- Mass/Weight (kilogram, pound, ounce, ton, stone, etc)
- Speed (km/h, mph, knot, etc)
- Area (square kilometer, square mile, hectare, acre, etc)
- Cooking Volume (teaspoon, tablespoon, cup, pint, quart, ounce, etc)
- Pressure (kilopascal, bar, PSI, etc)
- Power (watt, kilowatt, horsepower, etc)
- Energy (joule, calorie, BTU, etc)
- Time (year, month, day, hour, second, etc)
- Fuel Consumption (miles per gallon, liters per 100km, etc)
- Digital Storage (bit, byte, megabytes, gigabytes, etc)
If you're interested in helping translate the app into your language, Unit Converter Ultimate is open source. check out the code on GitHub
and at this time I designed the logo using rectangle tool and ellipse tool, the first thing I do is make a circle with ellipse tool then I select and minimize the selection part then I duplicate the circle layer that has been selected, after layer dupikat created with circle the smaller one, I lowered it a little more to get the space between the circle, then I made a rectangle and tapered it down to form like an arrow after that I grouped all the layers and deleted the left of the first circle, after all the finished phases I duplicate the result of the merge first and shaping it into a symbol of recover what version you want it to be.

Benefits / Improvements
The logo that I created looks simple and elegant with varying bright colors, very different from the original logo which is linked with arrows made in the opposite, the logo I created is very good to look at, and I'm sure. The logo I created can also appeal to google playstore customers to use the Ultimate Unit Converter app, and I hope that with this new logo the better the future will be and continue to make improvements and updates
Tools
When designing something, I always use software from Adobe, Adobe Photoshop. This time I use Adobe Photoshop CC 2015. I often create logos and this is one of my hobbies and loves to do it.
