bottom one
align the E to the left border
the illustration needs to be simpler
the red background is too dark and makes the text unreadable

>>283028
if the E is aligned to the left border, will it look weird because the horizontal edge of the L will be left out?

Should I make the text yellow as well?

Make the bottom edge a straight line. The triangle dips are distracting and add nothing to the overall composition.

>black text, red background
NO! Bad designer! Bad, bad designer!

i see potential in the right one but extending the yellow colors on the letters cause it makes it hard to read. the one of left is safest but not all that great

Making a card for my Grandparents.

Was using photoshop but it got too complicated so I'm back to pen and paper.

My state's board of edu just greenlit something called a "public education collaborative", and started a logo-design contest for all votech students in the state with a prize of a $200 amazon gift card. I went with a "1" shape because they were looking for some symbol of "togetherness" and I stretched that to "unison" to tie in with education being their first priority. Threw this idea together in about an hour-ish. Thoughts/Constructive Criticism?

I read it as a cartoon dog before I read it as a "1".

give the background a texture, preferable different, or do the slightest gradiet radiating the gopher

Hurts my brain... agree with above, definitely thought it was a dog with cartoon legs/feet. Start over dude, this is not going to fly.

Actually as i look at it I'm starting to think I should put shia leboufs face on the gopher. Anyone think its a good idea?

>>283027
not sure how i feel about the half-circle. maybe make it a different shape that evokes that "excited" mood?
