Like it very much, thought that \'A\' seems to be floating off on its own. Playing with the KA kerning pair might polish it up a bit.

did you try to clean up the symmetry of the \'ribbons\' at their abrupt cut off point beneath the type Cut off\'s are good, they can work to re instate a name. So can a bolder navy blue.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. Just a couple of comments... Yeah, the \"A\" does float out there. I had a tighter version, but I didn\'t like how the serifs in the letterforms fit togehter. I could probably play with it a little more to make it work--there\'s really no excuse for lazy typography. And it\'s funny you mention using a darker blue, because that\'s what one of the earlier versions had. They liked it better when I took the saturation down and lightened it up. And after some time with it (and developing a corresponding color scheme) I did end up liking this choice of blue.

Wow! This is a beautiful mark! I agree with the comment about the A, my suggestion would be to ligature up the serifs on the \"KA\", and cheat the A serif on the left side to the height of the K serif to lock them together seamlessly. I didn\'t notice the ribbon thing at first, but now that I have, it\'s kind of bothering me how it breaks the rhythm of the flow. That said, since I didn\'t notice it at first glance, is it a legit criticism?
