10 months ago Sexysev What I mean is your saying "My Logo". Really you didn't make anything here, and it's completely un-original.
Not trying to be a dick here, but I would expect people would put more work/thought into it. 10 months ago planck says: So let me get this straight...
You will submit that the FedEx logo...which uses a font they didn't create...which only consists of some colors and kerning...is a good logo. But my logo - which consists of a font, different colors, a brush (which is given open to the public by Adobe), and a play on two letters in the font is a "completely un-original" - morally unsound - effortless logo? The point of this logo is to be simple, to use what you have, and to be clean. I think it does that. I'm taking everything you're saying in the most constructive way possible - I am just not seeing the argument. I've actually taken what you've said and talked to other designers. Most of which have said that there's nothing wrong with what I've done and that it's a fine logo. I did modify that font slightly. I replaced the dot in the i with the drop and I added the shape. Now I have had people say that they feel the logo would be better if the shape was a custom one and not the default one in Photoshop. That's constructive and well received and I am actually working on that end. You should think about your approach when it comes to critiquing work. Thanks for the link to your site. 10 months ago Sexysev Your just new I guess.
All I know is if I showed this to a client or my boss he would tell me to get out of town. 10 months ago planck says: This is for personal use.
I wouldn't sell this to a client. I wouldn't try to get paid for this work. This is strictly for me. Thanks for the input. 10 months ago Sexysev Sorry but I don't get this. This is just a shape that comes with Photoshop. And the text is a font you downloaded....what did you make here?
No offense but I could make this in literally 1 minute. 10 months ago planck says: On that note. The Fedex Logo is just the Futura Bold font with kerning. I think they paid $2.5 million for it.
10 months ago Sexysev And it is totally worth that much. Text logos kickass imo. Color choice is huge for branding your company.
Using stock shapes that come with photoshop isnt so cool..... Look I even made a blog post about text logos http://www.blogfullbliss.com/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=60-Iconic-Text-Based-Logos.html&Itemid=1 10 months ago planck says: I'm sorry, I am just not seeing what's wrong with using the tools I was given.
It's not like I am saying "I made that brush". Everyone who is a designer knows what that brush is. I am open to opinion - I am just not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel here. |
