Lemniscate Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Well, I have decided to redesign myself, in a number of ways.I will soon be launching a design blog, I currently have one, but I will be revamping the appearance with my own template, and will also be providing original materials.I will also be resigning my moderator and administrator positions on other sites, to give me more time to devote on developing skins for blogs, ipbfree forums, and myBB. I will be releasing things much more often, and redesigning my twitter account to match my new logo and website.Here is a first draft of my logo, this was done in GIMP, I will be re-doing it in a more detailed fashion in Illustrator, so that it's vectored. [spoiler=Logo] [spoiler=Blog Layout Preview] Click for full size. I am really looking for thoughts on whether this looks, creative, professional, and whether it is memorable enough to create a good public persona for myself. Anyways, I would love your input.

JG. Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Split opinions TBH. The logo seems simple, yet good but it just looks wrong somehow, in a bad way, but I don't know what it is that's wrong... But no, I doubt it'd be memorable enough to symbolize you. You need something more epic ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemniscate Posted October 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Logo seems very simple' date=' text is just...AWFUL.[/quote'] The simplicity of the logo is purposeful. Logos are meant to be something to stick in a person's head, making it too complicated defeats the purpose. And on the text, it is a personally customized font (I forget what font was the base). I am going to be fixing the "s", which I know it a bit too blocky on the ends. Is there anything else that you dislike about the text? Split opinions TBH.

You need something more epic ;D[/quote'] On the logo, I am going to be making it better, this is really just a preliminary draft. I will be making it more 3-dimensional, and once I have the design set in stone, I am going to set it up on Illustrator, and make it visually interesting, beyond the capabilities of GIMP.As for as memorability, I am going to be making this more interesting, as already said. One central point that I want to portray with this logo is the idea of unity, which is why I chose the design that I did, because the individual section all form a continuous loop, but it also very geometric and minimalist, which I like.I am going to working on version 2 soon enough. I'll post it as soon as it is ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
