@Mike - I know right? I'm balling my eyes out over here. A woman couldn't satisfy me this much.

logomotive said on May. 31 '09

Trust me I know the feeling. Kudos.

Sneh, Euan, Fabian, Neil, Rudy -- thanks so much. I'm really excited to get cooking with the rest of the identity.

Hayes Image said on May. 31 '09

Makes a statement :)

lundeja said on May. 31 '09

Thanks Josh, I'm glad that it got across.

epsilon said on May. 31 '09

Having stared at it for a bit, it does appear to have slight "mustache":http://mooregroup.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/new_mustache020.jpg feel to it.

lundeja said on May. 31 '09

Hahaha I might have to grow some handlebars. This would no doubt give me more reason to smoke my pipe and mutter "Mmmyes"

logomotive said on May. 31 '09

Jared is growing a stache ya know, he planned this one. Just add a subtle smile (for A) and 2 dots for eyes now.

epsilon said on May. 31 '09

Hehehe

lundeja said on May. 31 '09

I'm also looking for some constructive thoughts on the website design "here":http://logopond.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3218

cerise said on May. 31 '09

It's also looks great on the website well done.

lundeja said on May. 31 '09

Cerise, thanks! I think it's going to be a long and beautiful marriage.

gyui said on Jun. 01 '09

very nice lundeja, i kind of also saw a road disappearing into the horizon, like it's the road ahead, an unknown road. and the stache too :)

logoholik said on Jun. 01 '09

I am still on the fence here, because i thought it has something to do with ice hockey? Maybe reflection is to blame :)

lundeja said on Jun. 01 '09

Thanks George.

Bojan - My backup plan with it was to put a bit of a mountain in it and give it to the Colorado Avalanche

lundeja said on Jun. 02 '09

Thanks Houston, nima :D

moxelcreative said on Jun. 29 '09

Nice work. I really think the overall aesthetic of the mark is well done and unique. As for the execution on the website design I think it work well. Being a web designer myself I can help but want a little more color... otherwise you are doing a great job! Keep it up.

andreiu said on Jul. 17 '09

like your personal logo :)

fogra said on Jul. 27 '09

Grats on the feature, Jared.

logoholik said on Jul. 27 '09

^ Yep!

Type08 said on Jul. 27 '09

^Yep! Yep!

logoboom said on Jul. 27 '09

Indeed...congrats Jared.

Tømme said on Jul. 27 '09

lundeja said on Jul. 27 '09

Thanks all :D Means a lot coming from great designers like yourselves. Wow.

dbunk said on Jul. 27 '09

Arrow Upward!

logomotive said on Jul. 27 '09

Congrats Jared :)

andreiu said on Jul. 27 '09

congrats for getting in the featured gallery! :)

JohnM said on Jul. 27 '09

Congrats Jared! this is awesome! hope i get there too someday ;-)

lundeja said on Jul. 27 '09

Sindur, Mike, Andrei, John. Thank you very much.

rudy hurtado said on Jul. 27 '09

Well deserved Jared!

NeilMcDonald said on Jul. 27 '09

Congrats Big Yin!

lundeja said on Jul. 27 '09

Thanks Rudy, Neil. Means a lot :)

Neil, my Scottish slang translator is giving my mixed results on that one so I'll go with "Big Yin" being equivalent to "Big Shot". I need more lessons.

mister jones said on Jul. 28 '09

congrats with the feature, dude :)

OcularInk said on Jul. 29 '09

Bout' time. Congrats, Jared. Oh, and I dig your personal mark. It's very memorable.

barryconvex said on Jul. 29 '09

Sorry, but I see real nothing that comes close to the description. It looks very corporate, slick and somewhat nondescript. I definitely prefer http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/50749

lundeja said on Jul. 29 '09

Thanks Kevin, mister jones.

Barry => Not supposed to jump out at you I guess. If I were to use a blatant JAL I think it would lose a lot of its memorability, originality, powerfulness, etc. The one you mentioned didn't really feel like me and I had been pointed in the direction of a few similar logos.

barryconvex said on Jul. 29 '09

Certainly there´s nothing wrong with a more subtle approach, my first impression was: inactive volcano, literally and not so literally. Plus another detail, I´m not sure if it´s intentional or not: The name seems a little off-center.

tranzbutka said on Aug. 13 '09

Love this work :)

RBeezy said on Aug. 18 '09

Not bad but it's reminiscent of the J. Lindeberg logo.

lundeja said on Aug. 18 '09

Unfamiliar with said logo and thank you for the link.

lundeja said on Aug. 18 '09

!http://www.edopter.com/images_user/ideas/200805/bdPFzS! Found it and I'd say they are well different.

m1sternoname said on Aug. 18 '09

agreed :)

epsilon said on Aug. 18 '09

They _are_ different. They are in a completely different domain too.

fogra said on Aug. 18 '09

I have to agree with RBeezy on this coz they are the same colour ;)

logomotive said on Aug. 18 '09

ha ha Sean.

Brandsimplicity said on Aug. 18 '09

Oh my goodness...Jared...how could you..lol

lundeja said on Aug. 18 '09

I see I let a lot of people down today. My days of deceit are over. Imma make you proud, paw.

cseven said on Aug. 18 '09

Hey Jared, I just realised that despite admiring your mark I've been remiss in floating it. Done.
^ Love the Irish sense of humour Sean.

m1sternoname said on Oct. 13 '09

you are sharp as razor today Jared

logomotive said on Oct. 13 '09

Thanks Jared. the Pot calling the Kettle Black.

logomotive said on Oct. 13 '09

Delete time!

rudy hurtado said on Oct. 23 '09

I still like it very much Jared.

lundeja said on Oct. 24 '09

Thanks again Rudy. I've only recently found the required time to start to really build a brand around it (sort of a good thing, I guess - busy busy). Trying to get my website done by Monday so I'm in for a long weekend.

lundeja said on Nov. 04 '09

I've been gradually tweaking the mark and type weight on this since June... If you feel like reading a short bit about it here's my blog spam lol "Logo Evolution":http://www.jaredlunde.com/blog/logo-evolution/

logomotive said on Nov. 05 '09

I think you need more color blends. :)

lundeja said on Nov. 05 '09

I was thinking pink

logomotive said on Nov. 05 '09

^Rainbow

epsilon said on Nov. 05 '09

May I suggest light gray

lundeja said on Nov. 05 '09

Light gray is wayyyy too flashy. I might go total simplicity, you know, white on white or something.

epsilon said on Nov. 05 '09

Can't wait to see it :)

OcularInk said on Nov. 06 '09

"I might go total simplicity, you know, white on white or something." Hahahahaha!!!

You know, I wasn't quite sure about this one in the beginning, but I've really grown to like it. All the subtle and minor tweaks to the mark are well worth it. The type compliments the mark well too. Good job, bud.

firebrand said on Nov. 06 '09

Yea, I really like the type.

barryconvex said on Nov. 06 '09

Seriously, it´s a relief to see you´ve dropped the depressing light grey.

siah-design said on Nov. 06 '09

Hey Jared - surprised to see I've never commented on this. Really like the type and the mark is cool, too.

One MINOR thing that is bugging me right now is the gray for the mark is just a tad darker than the gray for the type. Is this a conscious decision?

Grats!

lundeja said on Nov. 06 '09

Thanks Kevin, Barry, Siah.

@Siah - You're right, it is. I forgot to switch out the color of the type when I updated the mark on it. At least it still matches, lol.

lundeja said on Nov. 06 '09

Whoops, thanks to Roy, too :D

Chad Sanderson said on Nov. 18 '09

Can't believe I haven't commented on this yet. Really classic logo Jared. Probably one of the ones that'll stick with me for a right long time. Cheers!

Chad Sanderson said on Nov. 18 '09

I never say 'Cheers' in real life. Logopond is messing with my mind.

michaelspitz said on Jan. 29 '10

Solid solid solid! :)
