Hello,
Here is an idea for the wordmark, still working on the octopus.

Very good idea. Let's try blue instead of purple. Can't wait to see the octopus.

Yes! Yes! Yes! I love where you are going with this. #7 wordmark is the best. It is a great logo by itself which is important. I plan to use it alone and only include the octopus for things like the website and some marketing material. I like the font and two-tone. I also like the blue octopus with orange under the tentacles.

I like the glossy octopus for web stuff and would probably use it for some printed material. For other things like shirts and large printed items that charge per color I would use the basic style.

I can't decide where I like the octopus better. I think, again, I would make this versatile.

The eyes of the octopus are too detailed, I think. Let's try without the orange, lower, further apart and match the wordmark's glasses (closing of the "c").

The feeling I get from the current octopus is cute classic maybe socially awkward nerd. I want more of a modern cool nerd.

one more thought. Let's try putting "octo" on top of "nerd" and increase the size of the font. Then the octopus would go to the left. I also want to try throwing in "services" under nerd probably smaller black font so that the width is the same as octo and nerd.

Hello,
I'm glad that you like the octopus.
I did the revision as you suggested. If you have other, please let me now.

Thanks

Ok, i like the octonerd together rather than on top of each other. I like these glasses better. Let's try without the freckles and eyebrowes.

I pretty much like your design the best hands down especially the lettermark. That is what makes it for me. The octopus is just bonus. So for future revisions let's use the font size you used when you put octo on top of nerd #16.

definitely like the new glasses without the freckles and eybrows. I think I like the blue "nerd" better than the orange.

A few more tweaks and we're so close: lower the eyes and glasses slightly, keep the glasses the same size but maybe reduce the size of the eyes slightly so they don't fill the glasses completely.

I'm still not sure whether I like the octopus best centered on top, offset to the left and/or with a tentacle behind the text. They all look nice. I will get some friends to give me their feedback.

Hello,
I am very glad you like the design.
I did the revision, changed the eyes in the glasses and also added some shadows on the octopus. Also i did a concept where the octopus is holding the wordmark #54 #55
Hope you like it, and if you have other suggestions please feel free to let me know.

Best Regards

I'll tell you the same thing I told another designer. Let's try a version without the octopus with just a tentacle maybe coming up out of the water.

you are too good. Okay, you win. Can I get the design elements of #82 & #84 in my final eps. plus a solid version of the text without gradients like you started with?

My plan is to use #84 for business cards and ads, the text logo with solid colors (no gradient) for shirts and then I'm going to use your octopus in the header of my website. Where the main body of the website is the water.

Wow!
I'm very glad that you like the designs.
Yes, of course that will be no problem at all. You will get #82, #84 and the wordamark separately, all in multi colors, solid colors and black and white.

Cheers
