The combination is good and creative, but the placement is not

koodoz said on Nov. 06 '07

Wow! At first it was just another logo, until I saw the pencil, which was a pleasant surprise.

My only critique would be to use a thicker, rounder font to match the stroke of the pencil. VAG Rounded perhaps??

djuice said on Nov. 06 '07

Thanks for your suggestions guys..
I'll try a bolder type. Regarding the placement, I was going to use the mark without the text, thats why I didn't put any effort into layout, I will update it as it progresses.

Nice one Alex. If it were mine I would have it at 90 degrees rather than that angle so the type can be read quickly and in the easiest manner.

Overlooked this one. Nice idea.

Very nice! I like the AMD/pencil mark at the angle as it is - it's always fun making it a bit of a challenge for the viewer.

djuice said on Nov. 06 '07

Thanks again)
I put it on an angle on purpose, that way its easier to see the pencil first. I changed the font to reduce the contrast between the mark and the text.

koodoz said on Nov. 06 '07

Revision looks great Alex.

The font complements the symbol and overall comes across as friendly. I also think the pencil looks better on an angle. It helps the viewer to see the pencil first, as opposed to seeing the letters first and subsequently, regurgitating the business name.

LOVE IT. my only suggestion is to seperate the leg of the 'm' with the stalk of the 'd' as you did the other left of the 'm' and the round portion of the 'd'.

ryantoyota said on Nov. 08 '07

I love it too. My suggestion would be to squish the round part of the d so that it looks more in perspective with the rest of the pencil.

icu said on Nov. 08 '07

great idea!

djuice said on Nov. 08 '07

@Marc - thanx, not everyone sees the pencil right away though, even on an angle
@ onesummer - I tried separating m and d, the gap is just asking to be filled
@Ryan - thx, originally it was oval, but I wanted something more abstract, plus a squished d didn't look like a d, now it's an eraser...)

pure class man. the perspective shift between the D and the curve of the A is cool.

i initially thought it might look better with the M/D break, but it's grown on me.

Unique but simple.
