Actually Matt, Brad up there brings up a good point about the C, which is something I hadn't quite noticed. But now that he pointed it out, it does look a bit out of place. And now that I see that, I'm noticing that the O might have similar issues. The rest of your face uses a mixture of squared-off and rounded elements, but these two characters are strictly *round.* I get that they reflect the roundness of your icon, but I think that if you applied the same design cues found in the rest of your face, the logotype might look more unified. Honestly, I can see the O and the C being built from your E with very little effort. Just a thought. Doesn't affect my enjoyment of the mark, overall, though.
thanks all for the floats and feedback. i've been really happy with the response of this one. @ jon %26 chrome. I also see what you're saying... when constructing this font i wanted to go in between the two curve structures. when i honoured just the tighter curves the font looked too modular. Although i have created inconsistencies i prefer the the overall feel this way. you can see on the letter 'f' I have used both large and the tight curve. I was hoping this would help form a relationship with the two.
