Hi, so I am a new graphic designer
(or I'm trying to be...my application for the Design Team Membership is taking a while..hehe)

Anyway,
I have decided to make myself a personal logo
(very elementary, for I am elementary)
My initianls are CK, so it is currently just CK designs.

Please leave feedback,
Thanks.
Graphical.

I like it. specially the word designs...

but the "G" in GCK is quite confusing.

that's just my opinion.

ooohhh. CK is your initials. my bad, didn't read your whole message.

but still, what is that "symbol" you are trying to show? my first reaction would be to take a look at your username.

The "Symbol" is half an abstract thing for the "G", but further on just a pretty picture (lol..) anyway, but thanks for the feedback!

The 'feel' of your logo is quite nice. However - the splashy effect of your 'ck' makes me search for a third or fourth letter whether or not one is actually present. I keep wanting to read 'LCK' of 'FCK'. Also, the scale difference between 'ck' and 'designs' might be problematic. Especially since the word 'designs' is hand drawn. When you scale that down to 1/2" you lose a lot of the graphic information. Maybe having designs at the same size, but ditching the had-drawn type would help? Just a thought.....

I like the overall style you used, very street art'ish. Great color combination as well. But as said with some of the other feedback, try simplifying your abstract "G" and I think the logo will look more professional.

Nice start. My suggestion would be to lose the extra (imo) elements that distract from the ck...or at least make the element complement the ck rather than obscuring the design.

Make it a bit smaller so as to fit the thread better too.

the logo is pretty nice and the graffiti style is nice also, although some shapes looks kind of random.

nice logo!
i would clean the left of "ck" - it might be a letter or a symbol - if that is not clear, leave it away...
try maybe other color-variations...

I think it's pretty good looking for a first logo. One thing to keep in mind, and it depends on how deep you're planning to wade out on your own, but think about some of the things it'll go on: letterhead, envelopes, fax cover sheets, etc. Ask yourself, "will it shrink down well?" and "will it look like a logo on a fax, or will it look like a smudge?" Just some thoughts, shooting from the hip.
