Re: Post your logo here!

I don't know, it doesn't look like much of a logo to me. Yes, the font is pretty flamey but a logo usually has some sort of symbol on it. Also, perhaps make it smaller and more compact. BTW, Sean usually knows what he's doing.

So yeah, I'm back from my mind.

Re: Post your logo here!

So what classifies a logo? Is this at all anything even like a logo?

Sorry about the small pic. I can't find the bigger one.
Or my sig?


By the way, how do you make small/big text?

Okay, I have said this many times before, but this drives me crazy when I see it. This is a definition of the term logo. A Logo should be a graphic that catches attention, it is not a picture of a minifigure with your name next to it. There are billions of combinations for minifigures out there. I would give a number, but it just gets bigger every time Lego cranks out another set. People are not going to associate a specific minifigure with you. If you want a logo people will recognize, be creative. And take this as an example. Look at the BricksinMotion.com logo. If I were to take it and desaturate it, then shrink it down 75%, would you recognize it? Now take your logo. If it is a minifigure that you find recognizable due to the green shirt, desaturation will remove that factor. Or is it the new curved-brim hat that makes it so recognizable? Shrink it down and it's now just any ordinary minifigure. Take a look at the IBM logo. True, it is text, but the font is designed to make it unique. Please, before you just post a picture of a minifigure and slap "legoman98forever" on it, take time to come up with a creative and clever logo. And don't feel down if this is your first shot at a logo, Lego went through several changes before it's current one.

Sean's right. These aren't logos. Logos have to have some sort of artistic style or talent involved. Not something downloaded from dafont.com or the like.

To be fair, your logo isn't exactly the pinnacle of originality either...

The point I'm making isn't about originality - simplicity often works best. It's about designing an identity rather than throwing down some clipart/photo and some badly formatted/styled text.

I'm soon getting Photoshop. I'm not too experienced with GIMP.

Re: Post your logo here!

Throwing money at things doesn't make up for a lack of basic skills. Read a book on it, find some tutorials, watch a professional at work... and, of course, practice.

^ This. Draw logo concepts on paper before trying to jump in to doing it directly in the software, no matter how expensive or fancy the software.

Developing design ideas is exactly what I do at school in Art Design. If you don't do any developing then you simply fail the assessment. mini/mrgreen
