The Blue Cove logo didn't change nearly as often as the Nosiphus logo did, but it does hold the runner-up title. Blue Cove was once the name of all of Nosiphus, from August 24, 2008 until February 6, 2013.

(August 24, 2008) December 14, 2012 - February 6, 2013
First Circular B, Black Text, Calibri
While this had been the Blue Cove logo since its inception in 2008, it wasn't computerized until December 14, 2012. Blue Cove had been meant to be a cell phone company, as I came up with it while returning from the bathroom and witnessing this commercial advertising the merger of Verizon and Alltel. After I created the HTML experiment on December 2, 2012, I decided to use the Blue Cove name for it, and thus drew the logo in Microsoft Paint. It was used until the Blue Cove name was retired on February 6, 2013.
December 14, 2012 Variant 1
First Circular B, Black Text, Palm Tree on Island, Blue Cove Wave, Calibri
While creating the Blue Cove graphic, I created some experimental logos. This one had a palm tree, and was the first to include the Blue Cove Wave, which would be featured in later Nosiphus logos.
December 14, 2012 Variant 2
First Circular B, Black Text, Blue Cove Wave, Calibri
This second variant logo I created that same day changed the wave color and removed the island.
October 5, 2015 - October 23, 2015
Second Circular B, Glow Effect, Black Text, Calibri
In late 2015, we started to come with the idea that the YouTube channel should be something like a television network, and have multiple different shows on it. The Blue Cove brand was brought back as the name for the production arm of the Nosiphus Television System, and the logo was refreshed as the original graphic was unacceptably bad. This logo only lasted a couple weeks.
October 23, 2015 - March 20, 2016
Second Circular B, Glow Effect, Blue Text, Calibri
The only change made to the graphic on October 23 was to alter the color of the text, and this logo was used until the Nosiphus Television System concept was retired in March 2016.
May 20, 2017
Third Circular B, Blue Text, Quicksand
The Blue Cove name may have been out of use during this time period, but I did want to modernize its logo if I ever did decide to use it again, and this was the first result. This new logo didn't stick around for even a day because the colors were too harsh, but I did like the general design of it, which led to me creating the first variant of the modern Nosiphus logo a couple weeks later.
May 20, 2017 - June 8, 2017
Fourth Circular B, Glow Effect, Light Blue Text, Quicksand
I swapped the colors around, As the current Nosiphus logo at the time still used the glow effect, I applied it to the Blue Cove logo, and it stuck for the remainder of that Nosiphus logo's timespan.
June 8, 2017 - September 29, 2019
Fourth Circular B, Light Blue Text, Quicksand
When the main Nosiphus logo was changed on this day, for consistency, I removed the glow from the Blue Cove logo. This logo remained in use for over two years.
September 29, 2019 - September 30, 2019
Fifth Circular B, Shadow Effect, Light Blue Text, Quicksand
On September 29, 2019, I updated the Nosiphus logo to the form it uses today, and accordingly added the shadow effect to the Blue Cove logo. However, I felt that while the color choice looked good on the Nosiphus logo, the shadow color here didn't, so it was replaced within a day.
September 30, 2019 - present
Sixth Circular B, Shadow Effect, Blue Text, Quicksand
The current Blue Cove logo, designed on September 30, 2019, is by far the longest-lasting logo ever used for the Blue Cove brand. I adjusted the color scheme to a darker shade of blue, and felt it looked far better than the previous shade.
