New Logo

<em>Rough Draft</em>

Rough Draft

Thanks to Allen Chiu, a designer from Cali that found me on Facebook, I have a new logo. It started out a while back, when I decided to get a characiture done and set it up to the Facebook gods who would do it. In other words, I made a marketplace listing. I based it loosely after the Smashing Magazine logo, which I like because it’s simple and well-balanced.

The entire design process, from beginning to end and the final product…

Mock-up:

First of final two. Didn't make the cut.

    I like it. I wish I had any sort of artistic ability. My logo kinda sucks, mostly, 'cause I had to do it with public domain art and photos I've taken.

    Check out smashing magazine (if you haven't). They have the best free content. I get everything from there. Their icons sets are incredible. Hey, and don't worry about the artistic ability thing, I think pasting magazines on paper is Picasso level. Making your own logo is up there. All my designer friends convinced me to leave it to the professionals, or else I would have tried to do it myself too. Sort of how I McGuivered the design of this site...
