jwadenpfuhl said:like the concept alot.
i would try cleaning up the illustration a bit. maybe make it more graphic in nature, or perhaps "hand-drawn". at this size it looks unclear - some of the white spaces that the red creates are too small and undefined.
again great concept though. love it.

Bertje said:Is the pouring wine a vector drawing or a photo?
Anyways I like it a lot. Well done.

However, it feels like the "1" sits out too far. You might play with the kerning some.

Logomotive said:Yeah, you better watch out AEN's the 'kerning pro" ( Imean that in a good way) he's a good kerner :)

bob sakoui said:Very nice idea, really like the wine splash.
The illlustration of it could be a little cleaner, a bit more graphic and simple in detail, this I believe would make this into a really nice logo.
The '1689' needs some tightening up in terms of tracking and also spacing within the box.
Anyway I'll quit wine-ing (sorry that was bad).
Nice concept, well done. =)

mo said:Hello Raja, just wanted to say you are probably the best designer I've ever seen... Also, the FAQ on your site is hilarious!
I've been using Photoshop to design logos since I was a kid, but have recently got hold of Illustrator and it has taught me a whole new way to design. Your logos are an inspiration!
