I like the font of the ABA #14 much better than #13, but it is hard to see. I also like the presence of my name in #14 (and color). Not a big fan of the brown color of my name in #13 (even though that is my last name). Very close to my vision. Thanks so much
Thanks so much for the positive feedback :o) I'll see what I can do with the 'ABA' font. Would you like it to stand out more or merge in with the roots but be more legible? I can do either. IIf you want it standing out from the roots I suggest making it another colour (as well as a clearer font) Thanks!
I would like the ABA font to merge in more with the roots. Can the roots form the letters somehow? Is there any way the trunk could be black and the ABA text be white? Yes, I agree. A clearer font may be better/easier to see. As far as the ground line (#15) I was thinking a more natural appearance that flows with the contours of the tree, stopping at the trunk at each side. I do like the roots to branches proportion of #13 because in reality a trees roots stretch as far as it's branches. Can you see the other submissions? There is one submission that incorporates ABA directly into the roots.
Hey there, I actually had the ground appear round to start with and changed it back. So it's good you said that. I'll put it back round/more natural looking. I will work on the roots, that's a great idea having the 'aba' as the white space. I'll see if it works. You're right, the roots do span bigger than the tree itself. It's funny, the guy that does our lawns was talking about this massive tree next to our house, apparently the roots span 3 times the size of the tree!! How massive they would be. Thinking we'll keep them the same size for the design though! ;o)
I really like the grass, brown branches, and colors of #45 & #46. Is there any way to have the ground stop on each side of the trunk and have "Behavior isn't Black & White" below the roots like in #21 and my name above ground? Also, could the roots in #45 or 46 be a little bigger? I'm not sure about my name in the oval. I am leaning more towards the designs that don't cut into the tree with my name.
In entry #55 I've made the branches brown merging into different colours at the ends. Hard to see on such a small web screen but up close it's awesome! :o)
if you hit CTRL and the '+' button at the same time on your computer keyboard the screen should zoom in a bit. Might be able to see a little better. The screen is low resolution though so it may look a bit blurry up too close. It's not like this on the real file.
Yes, #55 is very cool! I've realized the designs I am leaning toward most have more realistic roots & ground lines. Could you do that? I think I like my name in #52 going straight across. It seems like it is more noticeable that way!
Great. I would like to see a black and white background. I haven't decided which way I like better yet! Some of the others have used a black background with the white writing which I do like because it incorporates my "Behavior isn't Black & White" slogan. Thanks so much!
I've made the roots more realistic, I like them better. They're more stylish too. I also fixed the ground. Is this more what you were thinking for the ground? #126 is my latest design. Let me know if your name is in the wrong colour or font too. Regards
The leaves look like Christmas lights to me because they are so round at the bottom and pointy at top. Even if they had a little point at the bottom, I think it would look better. I like more natural looking leaves I don't really like my name in yellow but that's an easy change (probably white). Could you make the ground line look a little more natural (kind of looks like water). It would be better if is rose up to the base of the bottom of the trunk instead of starting at the roots. Could the letters for "ABA" be a different font and the letters could be spread out in the roots a little more. Also, the logo could be bigger.
The new 'aba' font is heaps better, and easier to work with. #155 is my latest entry. It's looking much better. Is the ground more what you're after? I made it go up a little at the trunk but let me know if you meant up more of a mount or if you want it inverted like )( . Hope that makes sense! I've made the leaves more leaf like too. Regards
I really like # 164 because my name is to the right of the tree and the ground line goes all the way across. I feel like that sets my name off better. I like #157 because the logo is larger. Could you put my name right above the ground line and the "Behavior isn't Black and white" below the ground? I can't decide on how I like the leaves (colors mixed or grouped). I love your root system & the ground line is more natural looking now! Also like the more natural looking leaves. Thanks so much for your work!
Hey, I have to be ranked first to be able to submit any changes since the contest is in judging mode. Let me know if you want to see the denser leaves or the slogan under the line on #157. Thanks!
