Mikey, I think the light blue is clashing for one. Maybe white or the same dark Blue and with the outline style I think you could use a more fun scripty style type here. The outlines are of bear are strong and the bold type you have are just not working in my opinion. Spontaneous response.

Hey, thanks, Mike. I was already back working on the color. I think I loaded to quick. As soon as I saw it on LP it looked wrong. I was going darker with it.*Interesting on the script type. You may be right, I will look more into that direction.*thanks a lot, man.

I didn't see the type before the update, but I think it is a good fit currently. Playful and casual, but without feeling accidental. Nice mark. %5Efloated

Mike, i can be killed by saying this: this urges require, tremendously, a custom type - why? because the type is too bold, too heavy, too obstructing the beauty of the bear icon, also it is composed of rounded curly shapes, not in a million years this will match the bear style.. The bear is too sweet, so are the lines and colors, the drawing style. And get rid of that tag line or make it a different type.*might be too aggresive but i care about the bear:) oh, just ignore me, Mike, just speakin too much.

UPDATED. took off the tag line and thinned the type type down just a tad.

Reply
Mikeymike Nov. 29 '10

what do you think? did the thinner type help? curious.*thanks.
