Imagen Creative Studio Version 2

Hey Frank, first off this is not too bad, but let me share my thoughts with you, and it's all meant in designer-love. Personally I'm not a huge fan of these "trendy" logos (i.e. the gloss, the reflections, the typeface). For one it's following the look of a current "trend" meaning that it will eventually go out of style and really isn't timeless. At the same time I understand you can have fun with your own logo and try something "eye-catching" but down the line when this is out of style you will have to go back to the drawing board and rework your identity just to keep up with the next trend. Another thing is the harsh edges of this font bother me. They are sharp like the tips of knifes. Why not try working with your current logo and just refreshing it a little?

Just my opinion. I could be wrong on all this. You might want to see what jHouse (http://www.jhousedesign.com) thinks though since you guys are using the same font.

Thank you guys, LOL sorry about that "similarity" I guess we shared the same taste in fonts, I did a little change to the G though. I agree with the shiny effect not really useful when it comes to apply the logo for some printing projects I though about using it flat.
Bottom line I'm gonna get back to the drawing board and see what can I do with it.

Thanks again!

I like it!

Looks good, but, and I'm a broken record about this, do it in black and white first (no gray). You get distracted by all the web2.0 crud; just design the logo first, then worry about the effects later.

When uploading critique you can select what the project is from a little bulleted list. Like:
o Logo
o Corporate Identity
o Poster
o blah...

If logo is selected the uploader only accepts GIF files with a two colour palette. That way logos will always be in black and white. When the designer comes back with the logo "application" in Corporate Identity the colours can vary.
