Thanks for the ranking. I'm trying a few different variants on the theme... Let me know what tweaks you'd like to see. Keen to get this exactly how you want it. :)
Could you possibly also use a lighter font weight for the hanging bracket (under the hello). Say, copy from #14.
I really, really like your effects, but the only reason I'm currently putting Hitman with #98 in front is because his logo feels a bit 'lighter' overall. Not necessary lighter in colour, just not a heavy as yours.
Is it possible for your to apply your effects to a slightly lighter version of the Helvetice neu font for the word hello. See Hitmans #98 is one font weight lighter I think. This is ok to do.
Was out for a while... just got home (in SA where are you?)
Thanks for the feedback, will make the changes now. Shouldn't take too long.
...and yes, the file is completely vector. I use mutliple layers to get the more complex effects. The file is made in CMYK so that it will be good for hi-res print, but I'm pretty sure LT allows RGB versions to be supplied so you have them for web use too.
I really really like yours as well. Its pretty much 50 / 50 between you and Hitman.
I have just one question... - There appears to be a bit of a rough edge or something, down the left hand side of the 'h', about two thirds of the way down. Can you see what I mean. Maybe, it's some kind of optical effect happening.
Does the shadow or effect run over the edge of the 'h' where I am describing ?
However, I would also like to buy your logo as well, being: #146. I do want you to make some very minor changes to #146 though. - I'd like you to more acurately match the brightness of the red in Hitman's logo #127, as I want to use both. Does not need to be an exact pixel colour match, just tonally, make it a bit brighter. We can work that out later. - In fact, once i receive Hitman's file, I can send it to you so you can pick the same red from the file (if that would be a help).
So, would you be happy to supply final art to me for the same prize amount ($300 Aussie dollars via PayPal) ? I shall award to Hitman though. Hitman will loose 15% to LT.
I can contact LogoTournm't Admin and find out what the correct procedure is, otherwise we can deal direct ? - Let me know how you want to play it.
