Pleased with Logonerds Design and Delivery
Saturday, February 13, 2010 at 9:27PM The two banners from yesterday came from Logonerds and I had them do two actual logos for me as well over the last couple months.
It was an interesting process. The first time I went to do it I backed off because the questionnaire seemed so daunting. A month or so later I took the plunge. The initial concepts were delivered quickly and I was able to pick and request revisions. The follow-up was great. I was very happy with the entire experience, both how it was set up and the results at each step.
This one is pretty simple, but that's what I needed, just something that I could use for a button on a website and branding when I started doing documents or slideshare or youtube.
But this one I absolutely LOVE. One of the questions they ask is if you have any ideas. I mentioned two graphical concepts that had occurred to me that I felt would be too complicated for them to want to do, but I gave as ideas. And they worked this one up for me. I asked for the elephant as a separate file as well and they were gracious enough to give it to me for no extra charge.
Now I just need to figure out exactly how I'm going to USE them in the designs of their respective websites so that it connects with me using them elsewhere.

Beth, if you can't find a use for those elephants, I would like to paint it on my wall. I love elephants and that is a pretty sweet picture:)
Josh, I am DEFINITELY going to use that elephant. The easiest thing to do at the moment would probably be to just stick him in the corner of the website on the header. I've seen themes that do that, so should be able to figure out the code.
A painting along the same idea would be pretty cool though. You could do more to make it blur between the "real" and the "perceived" elements in that medium than in a simpler graphic.
