TäpestoryLogo Design Contest

apologize for the "radio silence" ...microsoft gave me a nice piece of update which messed up my PC :)).
If there is something else you'd like me to try , please feel free to ask :)

here : added a small reflection effect on the graphic, and slipped a small speech bubble inside the O . it might be a bit small though.

added a small icon, which can be used as favicon, here and there where an icon might be required.
changed the red to a warm gray .
now, if you have a better idea than me...please...

please check #150

i will change the red to a warm gray... but other than that... with all honesty i must rely on your input on this one.
i was only thinking i should have done an icon ...like Adobe does ...small square, gray , with the parenthesis and the quote as main graphics.
I'll prepare an example as well.
Thanks again and apologize the delay, different timezone .

Hi Das! I am currently doing a logo survey, and the leading winner at this time is a design that is more commercial and generic. The input I am getting from others, is that yours is the coolest, but isn't catching the visual appeal yet. Yours is my personal favorite, though I'm not as crazy about the red (maybe some shade of gray?). Any ideas on other changes? I appreciate your help and great work!

ok : bolded a bit the letters...text in black, and slight loosen .
left in red the marks.
Thanks :)

Hi DAS, thank you for your changes! I think the black color works better for the letters. I like what you did for the ((, since now they can almost also be quotations, yet still be like sound waves and ears. What do you think of bolding the letters and maybe spacing out to add emphasis? Open to your thoughts too. Thank you again!

in this version i tried to leave everything as close as possible to the original take, and transform into an obvious (more or less) ear the inner parenthesis .
also added a light gray shadow under the text to have it pop more.
thank you.

I've uploaded two new versions,
#136 and #137
color added , inner parenthesis changed to a small ear and the other also changed to ear resembling shape (without being an obvious ear) .
Thank you, hoping to hear (!) your thoughts about.

Hey:)
Regarding the accent, that would be no problem changing it.
Stand out more in terms of ? color?
i have thought also that the sound wave might be nice to combine it with an abstract ear. i am already working it and i'll upload it as soon as i can.
Thanks again.

Also, more input I got from others was that there was a collective "ahh" when people realized the (( could be both sound waves and ears. Any way you can make this more apparent? Can you also make the text stand out more? Many thanks!

Hi DAS, thank you again! Can you think of a way to make your logo stand out more? Also, I received input that I was mistaken with the umlauts on top of the "a" whereas the symbol should be a breve (ă). Can you modify? The consensus was that we all liked a typewriter font btw. Let me know what you think. Thank you again!

revised in #78

the text is a bit loosen. i can try leaving the kerning of the main writing as is.
In a moment, thanks a lot.
Best regards, Dan.

Hi DAS -- thanks! After seeing this, I like how the waves can be both sound waves and also like ears. I'd like to sleep on this, as well as get some input from my team. My only comment at this point is that the (( and )) make it slightly harder to read the name. Can you adjust in some way? Thank you again!

Kindly check #76.
Thank you.

Thank you.
i will upload a version in a moment accordingly.
Thanks again.

Hi DAS, thank you for your submission! What you did with the "e" and "s" is very clever, though it may be difficult to see. I am starting to think that incorporating 2 people having a conversation is not realistic, so changing gears -- what do you think about moving the soundwaves to be like parentheses around the name, like: ((( T ä p e s t o r y )))? Thank you again!
