Your idea's and illustrations are strong here, and the concept makes sense. I think that you should play around with a different color scheme, and maybe change the type. In my opinion, it's just not screaming "Home Repair."

Also, maybe you only need the main star in the middle instead of all 3 to represent nav.?

Anyways, just an opinion, nice job overall!

@thursdy: One star could make it look like a nativity scene.

Thanks guys.

I find it quite original for home repair and it doesn't have to scream "Home Repair" to me. I'd still make the type a bit less delicate. Nice work.

Nice find, vc.

gthobbs said on Apr. 23 '08

@vc: Wow, that is spooky close. Even the mountain angles are almost identical. Makes me wonder whether I lifted them or they lifted me.

OcularInk said on Apr. 23 '08

Some of the designer's other work looks suspicious too.

vc said on Apr. 23 '08

Well, gthobbs, you can be flattered that your mark was so good it got ripped in less than a week. Seriously though, I like it.

@Climax: Rispect! and do you read this found: http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/22213

hmm... ???

@Gthobbs: Nice work man!

ClimaxDesigns said on Apr. 24 '08

nice catch Muamer, logo deleted.

grubedoo said on Apr. 24 '08

Nice, non-traditional take on this logo. Although I wouldn't immediately associate home repair with the style of this logo if it stood alone, logos usually appear in a context so no worries. It's great.

Props to Climax for taking care of his logopond peeps.

wolv said on Apr. 26 '08

99designs doesn't want to deal with "derivative" works. they can only act if the logo is the exact copy of another logo, so derivative works are okay for them i suppose. you ask 99designs for confirmation of "derivative" works if you don't believe.

gthobbs said on Apr. 26 '08

Well year_ago_today pulled it from his submittals. So thanks again to Climax and vc.

ClimaxDesigns said on Apr. 26 '08

No problem

wolv said on Apr. 27 '08
