#11: I like the idea, but it's almost as though the little m surrounding the Marcatos (those are cool, by the way) diminishes the seriousness of what I'm going for. It's hard to be critical, but I want to make sure I get the best possible logo!

Thanks, and keep up the great work!

thanks I'll have try with some different ideas. How about this?

Not too shabby--it grabbed me. Is there a way to incorporate it into the words? I would also like to see some blue and grey if possible.

Thanks!

I'm digging the seal. I also like the font and how the M's have been "marcato-d." It's subtle--not too pointy. I like it a lot. At this point, I wonder if the seal could be "shinier?" I like the apple logo a lot, and it would be cool if it had that same slight 3D look and a little bit of a shine. I'm not sure if I like the grey in "music products..." I would like to see that maybe a combo of the blue above it and grey--slightly fainter than the "Marcato..". I WOULD like to see the seal have a little silver sheen to it--that might happen if it can be shinier.

Thanks!

I'm liking it a lot. Can you try moving the shine to the northeast, though? I don't know if it'll be better, but I'd like to see! I see you've also moved it above again! I like it both ways! Will I have the flexibility to put it where I need it for my needs? I also wonder if it wouldn't look cool (for another logo at some point) to have them offset by half an M (the marcato part in the bottom one would be nestled in the right hand side of the top M) and then put the letters arcato and usic after them? seems busy but might be cool?

here's the first with the shine placed to the northeast.As to placement if successful left aligned and above placement would be supplied in single,2,and full colour versions.

I really dig the shine on the northeast, but I think I'm going to stick with the M on top of the M--don't know why really...just like it better. Does single mean black & white, 2 mean grayscale? The other issue is if I can manipulate the image so the logo can be on the left of the words or above etc. One other thing is nagging me--would it look good to slide the left half of the M in the words marcato music closer to the right side? I still want to leave the space so you can see the marcatos, and I don't know if I'll like it, but it's something I'd like to see. Thanks!!

you know...I also kind of dig the white border from #14...I don't know if that's too busy with everything else, but it's something that grabbed me--it could go both ways and be cool.

I've made the inside edge a little more prominent with more white in its gradient.
I would still intend for it to be there just more subtle on the shiny version.
I've also moved the marcato'd M's so that the gap is more slight which works much better.

I dig the fact that the M pieces are closer together--I wouldn't mind a little more of the gap to show, though. It was more about the total width of the M than anything. I'd like to think that on a business card, there would be a good clean line of white there.

The white on the seal looks really nice. This is a great logo.

here's the m's with the gap ever so slight widened
