Thank you 'gheist' for this interesting design. I like a lot about it. I particularly like the gold 'shield' and metallic 'M' interacting. I'd like to see the 'shield' have more of a gold metallic look, perhaps 'liquid metal', as one idea to work with. Also, I'd like to see some different fonts with the metallic 'M'. Thanks again... I think this is really cool and look forward to seeing your next design.

Hi. I'm really liking #23. I posted a bunch of feedback on the site, but since this design is high on my list, I wanted to post here too. I'd like to see this one with the text in black and a bit more bold. Thanks!

Regarding #77... I really like this. Can you show me this design, same colors, and font size, only using the more modern font that you used in #23? #77 seems to have a cross bar on the "A", where as #23 does not. This might be because it's there on 23, but not very visible because it's thin. Not sure. Thank you. And please, I do welcome your thoughts on these matters as well. Thanks!

hi rick
here's a variation with reflection.
regarding the A... it's the same font but there are alternate characters
I've shown them all in this variation for your consideration...

Thanks. I like this one a lot. I would prefer the shadow effect of #77 on #78. I think I will be able to use it more readily that way. Thanks. Very good stuff.

Regarding #78.... I definitely prefer the font and letters from #23, and the color and weight of the text of #78. I think this comment and my previous comment capture what I'm after.

Summary... alter #78 by using the shadow effect of #77. Also, use the lettering and font from #23 on #78.

Thanks!

I think that's probably the best combo also
allows it work in 1 color - as shown

Hi. Yes, the 1 color view with #103 works as well. I'm definitely leaning toward #23 as my final choice, but seeing #103 in all black makes me wonder how it would look with the Medal in a 'carbon fiber' look. If you google 'carbon fiber' you can see many examples. Here are a couple links...

I'm not sure what you can and can't do with photoshop, but the if a 'carbon fiber' look is possible I'd like to see it as an adaptation of #103.

You've got great skill. Thank you for your input.

I can see it getting lost in translation at small sizes...

could look cool as a background though.

I'll give it a shot and see how it goes... straightforward enough to swap it over anyway.

cheers

Hi... I am definitely going to with #102, or some variation of it, as my selection. Thanks for your work. I wanted to play with a couple tweeks on the text color. Could you put together a couple examples building on #102 with text color in some blue tones as well as one example with text the same color as #23?

Oh, and thanks for indulging me on the carbon fiber thing. I liked it, but think #102 is the way to go.

Happy that this is going to go your way. You've done nice work. I need a few other photoshopped things put together and would be happy to work with you on them, if you're interested. My email is Rick@Medallurgy.com. Just send me a note and I'll tell you what I'm looking for.

OK I'm definitely going to go with the 'black' text. It just pop's more on my beta web site. One last tweek that I want to try. The proportions on #23 are different than #102. I would like to see design #102 with the text and medal in similar proportions as design #23.

Thanks again.
