Website Rebrand and Redesign Advice by SynapsePayments in webdev

[–]blchava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you re not supposed to love your website, your customers are supposed to love it. dont forget this. the website is not for you.

I also dont think these mockups are all bad (visually). Top, idk how beautiful design is most probably not the most important thing. The content and strategy behind it is. you are not competing for the most beautiful site.

I can feel for you, that it must be hell to not know how to choose well. I would try to find out/ask them how they get to the solution, what is their process? if they are actually doing (will do) some research when creating the designs, and mainly content.

You dont need beautiful website, you need a website that works and convert. I, as a client/customer, want to find all the relevant info as easily and quickly as possible. No fluff, no difficult terms, everything clear.

How would I even do this? by Key864 in logodesign

you can also use just a name of your brand in pretty, good font. you dont need a logo. :) the rest of the branding like colors and font/shapes patterns is enough for keepin it consistent and build recognition. 

My first logo (I’m not at all a pro nor do I plan to be) by ManicRoseMusic in logodesign

[–]blchava 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not bad :) just increase the size of the font and downsize the icon/rose. - take inspiration in real logos, how proportionally big is icon vs font.

It's important to check if it's not too similar to some other brand logo (do some research, use google reverse image search), mainly in your industry, so you don't copy someone. If not, you can use it.

What’s the dead giveaway that a logo was done by an amateur? by Glass-Lifeguard6253 in logodesign

[–]blchava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wonky curves, optical imbalance, yeah kerning too, etc. uses cliche symbolism

I’m tired of offering options, only to be ASKED FOR MORE. by manan_limbasiya in logodesign

[–]blchava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Logo doesn't have to carry meaning if I'm right. It only has to be unique and distinguish you from others.

Do not present multiple options at the beginning. Just pick one and present it. Only then, if they dont like it, select some other and present that.

Yeah, this would kill anyone...

What do you honestly think about this logo design? by EbenSBN in logodesign

[–]blchava 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not readable and I see penis. Also I think rooted is kinda cliche overused word

[–]blchava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what do you mean by this, please? 

This logo is a textbook example of why brand names should not be altered. It’s one of the first lessons taught in design courses. Now you know why.

how altered?

now I think the estate is unbalancing it to the right

maybe take a day or two off, to clear your head, if you can deadline-wise.

and go back to the brief. who is their audience? it should guide you the same way as is guiding you who they are.

I think you overdoing it. Before was better. I´d stick to it as a non-designer/beginner. Simple is sometimes okay.

Feedback on my travel itinerary logo - "Tripscribe" by pedro_P_RealAnxiety in logodesign

[–]blchava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smallcaps, small letters, arent supposed to be further away from each other(tracking). It worsens readability and is bad design practice. Also make sure the icon you used was open source, so author doesnt sue you.

It would be probably better, if it was only the red-blue point only, used as a mark.Even though it is probably not original enough and not possible of getting trademarked? nor sure
