Need opinions on logo


It's a good idea overall. I like it. It's humorous juxtaposed to the formal. and that is good to me.

My thoughts are:
- make the U larger and the french bread larger by comparison to the shopping bag. Let it go over the handle
- use the paragraph A-V adjustments to space the letters so that they look more natural. SOme are too close, some too widely spaced. Just be careful to realize that i's, l's, b's and so on have to be given the hawk eye, maybe even by blurring your eyes if you are new to this kind of thing, so that you can judge the spacing by your own critique and not through some mathematical exactness. So to be more specific to this logo, the S's are too close to surrounding letters. I don't believe that is intentional.

Well hang out. You'll surely get other feedback from members. Keep up the good work.
 
Here's anotehr way to look at it. Not perfect but I think the bit of playing with balance makes it more interesting. HOwever, it may now be blanced too much to the right. Grrr. Takes standing back for awhile and, as you are doing, asking for feedback. I also like to try several ways to redo it, then post those and get some more feedback.

I like how the two dots play off eahc other. Very creative. And they are a bit closer now with a more noticeable relationship, IMO.

One more thought. I think if the brown were lighter inside the U it would help the letter itself stand out more.

Just for fun, here's snother. I made the shopping bag a lighter brown.

I don't think I really like the line after all. I like the weighted right side I think because the mons part seems to me to make the balance work.

Hey,
Thanks a lot for your detailed replies and suggestions, really appreciate it ! So here I have taken your suggestions in the first logo. But I haven't enlarged the bread as it doesn't look really neat, or lets wait for the opinions of others. Also, do take a look at the second logo. I can't decide if the brown colour looks better on U or red...

Actually, I think it is better without the bread. I mean where are the celery stalks and the orchids purchased along with the bread? It does make it cleaner, neater as you say.

I guess if you don't want the bag to be a literal color then the maroon is great.

I don't like where you moved the .com. It is just hanging in space now. Maybe adding it onto the very end, in the same size and font? It just looks weird and out of place to me.

added remark: I just noticed that this is enclosed in an oval. On the site, since I have a white BG, it looks like a rectangular jpeg. I still don't like the placement of the .com though.

I looked at this in PS. I suggest moving the .com below the S. And the thin line seems extraneous. You wouldn't see it if the logo is not quite enlarged. Also, the weight of the line is not consistent with the other line weights you use.

Here's what I did moving the S. You can also see that now the right lower corner of the N is pointing to the dot in .com. I transformed it a little smaller so that it would line up with the pointer of the N. These are the kinds of relationships that I like to look for in graphic design. IDK if that's just my preference, but I rather think it is what makes for a cohesive design, those elements fitting together and playing off of each other.

Sam, go take a nap. :bustagut:

Or wake up! I think you're having a nightmare.

You indeed have a vivid imagination.

But I agree with you actually. It does fit better. Good catch Sam.
 
I do need a nap Clare, I have had a terrible day!

I might normally apologize for my odd takes on things I observe, but they help sometimes!


edit: I just noticed "bear" with me! :bustagut: I definitely need that nap!
