BHK Logo

Icon created for a real estate attorney. Easily one of the strangest logo requests I've ever had, he wanted an old fashioned type of keyhole with an updated/modern look and feel.

Looks like a bad photoshop tutorial gone wrong. Sorry.

@Polymath - First of all, the logo was done ENTIRELY in Adobe Illustrator CS3 - blends, transparency effects and all. So your statement about a "photoshop tutorial gone wrong" speaks volumes about how clueless and inexperienced you are as a designer. Second, I welcome any and all CONSTRUCTIVE criticism about my work. So tossing out blanket statements like you did in an attempt to appear whitty and professional doesn't help anyone and only makes you look like an idiot. Since you seem to be an expert at this type of logo, what exactly do you find wrong with it? Please, enlighten me.

You graduated 18 years ago and this is your quality? pfft. Even if its done in illustrator it looks like the million photoshop tutorials on how to create a gloss button. Want constructive? Looks like crap. Learn2logo.

I bet you have a great view from your glass house Polymath. Let's see more of your designs. The singular Desert Paradise doesn't do much for your credentials in quantity or quality.

Polymath, the fact that you took down all the logos in your showcase except one because you received negative comments on them speaks volumes about the type of person and designer you are. And I don't care if you don't like my logos, that's your choice, it doesn't bother me in the least. I made one negative comment about your "beach towel" logo and you've become a vindictive idiot. If you didn't want criticism about your logos you shouldn't have set up your showcase to allow it. If you're getting this bent out of shape over one little comment then I can promise that you're going to have a long and painful design career ahead of you once you actually start dealing with paying clients. Might as well learn to cope with it while you're still a student.

I'll freely admit that there's probably better "gloss" buttons out there. If you can do a better job at creating one I'm sure everyone on this site would love to see it. Put your money where your mouth is...
