ReplyAgencija, I've seen worse, but, have to agree, most of these are complete crap.
ReplyThat's a little harsh Trish. That kind of feedback never helped anyone.**Blacklisted, use a vector program, lose that gradient and scale it down a bit. The presentation of this logo would improve a lot.
ReplyOh and fix the spelling error. It says %22attoneys%22.
Reply%5EBlacklisted use a vector program because if you are going to upload 75 logos in 75 days you are going to get the same feedback over and over again.**Set up the logopond canvas and reduce your logos by 40%25 so that they sit nicely in the centre, that will be half the battle.
Reply@Tabithakristen: Thanks for the help and not being disparaging to my efforts. I appreciate that.**I created the basic shape in illustrator and used this tutorial to make it look like a badge or like a pin.**http://psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/text-effects-tutorials/how-to-create-a-gold-text-effect-in-photoshop/
ReplyI really hope this is a prank.
ReplyWhy'd you replace the logo with this entire screen capture?
Reply%5E Because it's cooler?
ReplySorry Tabitha, my comment was directed at Agencija not Blacklisted. I've given critique to several of his logos already.
ReplyI've noticed that too that he's being really rude (Agencija)
Replyas a joke, I don't understand why people we're telling me to use a vector program when I do. so, %22tongue in cheek, for today%22 I put up a screenshot, I was going to place the image on a screen shot of microsoft paint but didn't because Someone would have thought I was serious. Thanks for viewing
ReplyI know why? When you are exporting some logo you can export first inti 600 dpi and then resize to logopond sizes and you will not lost quality. Also som exports make logo more raster so you need choose quality jpg, png exports.
ReplyTry to use CorelDraw or Adobe Illustrator when creating logos!!!!
ReplyTrish, it doesn't matter who it was directed toward. You said it publicly that most of these are crap. That's what i was referring to.
ReplyBut they are. No offense meant. Just my opinion. I am not trying to be vulgar, just blunt.
ReplyOk. Cool, you use a vector program. You need to work on your outputting skills then. If the output quality were better, you would get far less harsh critique. Additionally, as a logo designer you have to be able to output the design in the highest quality for any medium. The logo should reproduce consistently no matter the final usage, whether it be TV, Web, Golf Ball, Bill Board, Business Card, Brochure, Letterhead, Taxi Cab, Bumper Sticker, T-Shirt, etc.
Reply%5Ewhat theartistt said.
Reply@theartistt - I wouldn't go so far as to say that all of blacklisted logos are %22crap%22, as you so delicately put it. I think that some of them actually have potential if more time and effort were put towards them. What I take issue with is his 75/75 mass logo production initiative which is essentially the basis for the majority of his logo design problems. I only hope that the logos resulting from his daily logo stunt aren't actually intended for client presentation and are done more as an experiment/exploratory. Paying clients deserve more respect than that.
ReplyThanks For the comments, *@ climaxdesigns , we have no idea either, sorry we're human and make mistakes. I don't know, the running joke around here is that we don't have logo, art, zen, or something else of the sort in our name and we're new so its ok to voice their opinion with no regard of how it reflects them.Thanks for commenting. We're trying to reply with the respectful and productive responses.**@sdijock again thanks for commenting your opinion is heard and listened too. When we approach a project we expect them to last more than a day or week. we plan on spending a lot of time researching, developing, finessing and delivering the final project. But, These are pieces that are going to be smoothed out or cut to create a more complete portfolio of what we can accomplish.** Thanks again for commenting and viewing.
Replyhey blacklisted... dont worry about what the others are saying.. you will most likely outlast most of us in this business... and make way more money too... **keep at it...
ReplyDitto... Hang in there friend! I only design part time I make more %24 on my side businesses. Maybe there is some fame in good design, however I really just want to famous to my wife and dauter. Isn't that what it's all about? **As a designer, being around here you'll just get better! Try spinning some of your own ideas from some of the GREAT designers here. I know you will! --Craig
ReplyBlacklisted can obviously handle it. And THAT is a highly admirable quality. Yes, I am rude on occasion. I'm often in a hurry and don't think before I type sometimes. I apologize for that flaw in my otherwise stellar character... %3B) I may overly deride designs on occasion, but I try very hard to never name call a designer. And, FYI, I am no where near the worst you will find here or out there in the real world.**Looks better but I question the decision of the blue background. And that metallic gradient really overshadows the entire design. Would like to see it without so I can tell if the design is decent or not.
