i wouldn't have figured it out without your description, unless you are a motion graphics artist/animator it just doesn't make any sense although i don't necessarily hate it, i think it might be interesting if it was even more crazy something more flat-cartoonish with the eyes outside the circle and an open mouth and a tongue or something like that.

>>305386
Yeah, that's part of the dilemma. I'm split between graphic design and animation, that's why I wanted to make a logo that would stand on it's own as a static image while still having room for motion.

Also, you're right, the expression on its face is dull. But then again, I also want to use it as a formal logo. I'll tamper with its expression nevertheless.

That's really ... just ... bad.

I'm not trying to be antagonistic; I just can't see what it's supposed to represent, express... or... anything. It's like someone said "Imagine a cartoon face that also combines clouds and eggs."

It doesn't really even look like a polished version of anything.

I'd just throw it in the "useless doodles" folder and start over completely.

In four months? How? What kind of design?

>>305208
Y u h3r3, gtfo. Google it.

Don't use GIMP

>I'm too retarded to figure it out.

Clearly.

>>305064
What - how to make a font? Or how he made the letters?

>>305067
No, a download link.

>>305064
Just go make it. Almost the entire alphabet is there as reference, and this is dead simple to recreate

Bad advice, don't listen to this cock monger

This is the best shit I've seen on /gd/ all day, but you haven't specified what kind of feedback you're looking for. Color? Composition? Figure it out, and start asking for more pointed feedback

woah that looks amazing

That was probably the only worthwhile thread on this board so far, at least for design noobs like me.

I dunno Open Sans probably

there no sexiest font. You have to found a font that fit your concept

Arial

What's the secret behind a professional football team? You hire players & coaches who are professionals in the game, not people that kick a ball around on the weekend.

Same with design. You hire people that know what they fuck they're doing to design it.

>>304270
just doodle and keep in mind what you are looking for.

Designing with purpose instead of designing to look "cool"

easily weeds out the hobbyists from the professionals.

Architect? How? For everything else I agree, though.

>>305083
The spacing of your elements are Brianna's-missing-balls shit tier. Image is dark as fuck. Start over

>>305092
recommend me some books to learn about spacing

or just the basics of design really

>Making and Breaking the Grid

That books a good start, but once you start to get the feel/look how things should flow on a page it'll come easier.

The image on the left isn't complicated ... it sound pedantic, but there's no other way to say it: look at the left, look at the middle. Make yours more like that, by creating the same shapes.

Example: It has trees. You don't. It has shading on the peaks. You don't.

And stop all the filter crap you did on the right.

>>304680
i don't want trees. It's a blue life-less planet like mars, but bluish.

added some shades. What about now?

Are you referring to the justified type, the grid lines, the bleed indicators, or... what, exactly?

Yea wtf are you talking about exactly? Everything in that image is really simple to achieve and it really quite basic.

Ha - yeah, I just left that one laying on the floor. ;)

It is a bit simple. I guess you could do better
