Nice and clean. I really appreciate your excellent work on type (which is? custom? many thanks:-).

Dache this does not read well at all on its own, the viewer would have to have the description to understand this mark.**If you used a roman typeface it might help sell this idea a little more.

Thanks Thomas, its Kontrapunkt and a custom roman numeral.**admarcbart, I think you may have a different vision to that of the viewer, you see this logo out of context and have seen all the concepts for this till now.

I like your concept. It's a great idea. However, I somewhat agree with Bart. Also, wouldn't this be more of a logo for a company named 'SHARP'? To me, the roman numeral is'nt recognizable enough to stand as a 5. What if you add the word 'five' somewhere? Maybe right above the roman numeral. Just some thoughts.

Hello Kevin, thanks. I was thinking perhaps an URL in the tagline. This is just an idea I wished to explore before completing the project. My clients and myself are still swaying towards %22this concept%22:http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/18972*I've updated it somewhat, will post on LogoPond when available for public viewing.

I like this one the best, it's the most unique. I don't know how hard it is to understand... I got it right away but that might be because I've seen the other versions %26 knew the name already.**wouldn't most things that have the logo have the name also? (Bizcards, letterhead, etc.) I think it works!

This was the first time I've seen your line of concepts, and I would never have assumed it read %22Five Sharp%22. Whatev.

graphic design and marketing company - they should be a lot more clear with their identity - are they ok with hiring other people for the service they are providing?**Either way this overtly novel and not strong enough to send a message outside of confusion.**(i still love you dache)

i dont get it .... would it not be stronger with the v not being encapsulated by the two lines ... since 5 is V

Dache, while I think this is a clever idea, I don't think it's working at all. Yes we understand but will the general public?.. probably not. I feel it reads as SHVRP if that. But nice idea anyhow.

Yes, as mentionned it is a work in progress.

Ummmm ,,,, you sympathise .. or you cant explain ... you seem to give but cant receive ... a work in progress must progress ... or rather you choose to digress ... the arrow actually indicates the direction of the logo ... **and to quote ... dache - No need to get personal ..?**or is it not homogeneous to the centuries roman numerals .... ????

Actually i apologise for my rant so before you decide to .... red card me ... i would like to say ....

zuhumina, feel free to email me your opinions from now on instead and Ill be sure to help you understand.

a riot u are indeed ... i would email you but its so much easier to post here ....**the question i ask is ... why have you closed up the top of the %22v%22 and have the line at the bottom ....**perhaps this is easier for you to understand .... **http://maryt.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/roman_numerals_complete.jpg**note the character of the equivalent character to 5! Im trying to understand why yours is different ... **My question is ... does the dash/middle bar of the a not work better with a V ..... Even with a line underneath from the centre of the V TO THE end of the word enhances a pencil graphic .... denoting more of a creative studio ... perhaps cliche but im sure you get the point .... perhaps ... *****
