I Prefer B: I believe it's the most intuitive. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
I guess "A" as it looks like it's crawling out to a network. but to be honest neither of them scream share to me. https://dolphin-techs.com - Skype: Dolphin Techs |
but to be honest neither of them scream share to me. That's the problem. Android users may be more familiar with A. Apple users may be more familiar with B or C. Someone that has never seen any of them, probably won't have a clue. Probably the only reason I think B is more intuitive, is because I've been seeing something similar on my iPhone for ten years.

There's always the bullhorn. It conveys shouting out to a crowd. It's just not very sexy. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
I think the two icons should serve two different purposes - the "A" one is probably good for sharing within the site (reposting) and B,C are more for "external" sharing, like posting to Facebook and Twitter. Perhaps B is best for that as it sort of shows the arrow jumping outside of the square/site. Heart Head Hands |
B is actually supposed to to be a letter tray, and the arrow is supposed to be something leaving it. Sharethis has been using A for a long time. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |
