real nice. my eyes first picked up an 'F" then an "S". I thought you were trying to spell soemthing out for the lnogest time. then i picked up on the H. My mind went right away to a tropical fish in the thumbnail window.

that f is a bit too pronounced, but not sure how to fix and keep the s shape. or maybe the h would be strong enough on its own being that the word salon is more descriptive of what the place is than anything special in the name.

I think there's a way to connect the 'F' like shape with the 'S' shape. Just might take a little time developing. Even if you connected it as is, the 'H' would then be more prominent and there would be an 'S' in the negative space of the 'H'.

@Climax/@OcularInk, thanks for the suggestions. I feel a little dumb, not even realizing some people may read an 'F' instead of an unconnected 'H'. I'll work with it and see if I can't get the two pieces connected in the right way. thanks.

Exactly what David said. It's also very easy to stare at your own design for so long that the little details can be overlooked. That is why Logopond kicks so much a$$!! You get comments on your work from all different angles.

decided to go ahead and just connect it into the 'H'; @ClimaxDesigns/@OcularInk, your first comments made very good sense. I toyed with a version that had a subtle gradient on the right side of the connector piece of the 'H', but decided against it. thanks again for the suggestions.
