logo for an employment centre
the circle is a cartographic sign for 'community' the various sizes and colours show diversity within the community. The circles as a group make a C that has been turned on it's side above the wordmark, the C is for community and the arch it creates above the wordmark symbolizes an 'umbrella', showing that the career services centre encompasses the entire community which lays underneath it.

there are too many styles on the type.
It's all fighting for the attention and the message isn't clear for me.

Smaller and use the heavy version of the type you have there.
In this case increased leading makes no difference. . . you could squeeze it in a little. . .

i totally posted the wrong picture....eek!
now the correct one is up there.
Looks too much like a carnival for me. Most people taking advantage of this service are facing serious challenges in their lives and need strong doses of help and hope, not balloons and cotton candy. Do you really want to make such a lighthearted statement? It might seem insensitive -- or maybe I'm too (ahem) sensitive ;-)

i agree with the commenters above. nice work!
I preferred the last version for the rainbow device but the type on this is much much better.

does AND have to be in different weight? the dot umbrella is asymmetrical, i mean it's lighter on the right side. is there a reason?
nice job.
I noticed the asymmetry too but rather like it. Agree that the "AND" should be in the same weight as the rest of the line.
but would also suggest the tagline could be slightly smaller point size, slightly heavier weight and the overall length shortened because visually it looks like it sticks out a bit (even though it may be exact alignment to the heading)
the asymmetry to it might work better flipped as people tend to read right to left :P it would show a transition from one side to the other as the reading is done of the name and sub-title. just a thought!
also, maybe try it with "&" instead of "and"
and like a lower post, the colors are nice, but they don't feel right for this use. i'd go with more solid colors instead of pastels.
all in all nice work!
