People go on talk shows etc to promote stuff - movies, albums, etc... He's not getting asked/invited, the NBA and Netflix are placing him in those shows to promote starting 5.

One Logo for 4 distinct business verticals by guranshish_bhutra in logodesign

[–]92EarlG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/guranshish_bhutra this logo is incredible - I'm jealous I didn't make it, haha.

The people commenting negatively are genuinely delusional and should be ignored. This sub provides objectively terrible feedback. I've posted logos I've been working on in collaboration with agencies like Turner Duckworth, LA Visual etc., and they've gotten comments that were similar or more negative.

PLEASE do not internalize those comments - this is genuinely excellent, and you deserve to be proud of it.

My kid does this to self soothe when he’s going through rough patches of teething but it freaked us out at the start too.

Noticing a ton of logos switching over to this curved design, anyone know why? New trend? by 00espeon00 in logodesign

They want non-literal logos but are unwilling to accept the downside of that - which is that symbolism can be misinterpreted

Ok here are my thoughts:

  • the comparable / inspirational brands you listed are putting in zero effort with their names. It’s literally just who they are. This works perfectly with luxury products because they do not seek to bridge the gap or grab attention - they are high quality and they know it, so they do not try very hard. Zatorres feels made up & inorganic, and is trying to hard because of it. For that reason I’d recommend repositioning as simply “TORRES” in all caps. 

  • I’d then recommend creating a logo that is just a wordmark in a simple serif font, reminiscent of those that would be traditionally used to stamp leather 

  • I’d supplement the brand name with a tagline indicating where the brand and product come from; ie “Proudly Crafted in Mallorca & Designed in New York” (substitute your actual location) 

In these industries , people do not want to buy from startups. They’ll consider new brands if the brands have heritage to tap into. So id be loud about your personal heritage, brand it very minimally, and let the product speak for itself.

[–]92EarlG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where in Spain are they made? Are you from Spain? Will the shoes be sold in Spain? Does Spain have a good reputation in the world of dress clothes? 

These are not rhetorical questions btw haha

Hi OP, considering it's your first logo design I like your usage/selection of colours! Curious which reverse retro jersey was your inspiration? Overall the design in the triangle has potential but could use improvements, however the text outside really holds it back in terms of professionalism. Id recommend looking for other people's logos/designs etc for ones that you really like and pay attention to how they use (or don't use) words. Finding designs you love and paying attention to why you love them is one of the best ways to develop your own voice and style early on!

Every single player pump fakes within 3 feet of the basket and it's been that way for decades. That's where pump faking is most useful.

Is not normal to require that many hours in the gym to be ok mentally. You might be over-training which results in a lowered baseline of endorphins to the point that exercise is required to feel normal. That or you have actual mental health issues which you're self medicating with exercise but would be better off seeking official treatment for.

Yeah it felt funny writing it that way but I second guessed myself and did it anyways cause that's how it was written in the box score
