'Cause DG and Kenny boy are putting out new projects. Thought this place could use some more.

Just a teaser, mainly to show DG that I'm still the best logo designer on the site (He's getting better with that pentool though)

Haha, anyway cnc for now I suppose and guess what it'll be if it isn't already obvious. Also this is the revival of showcase, brace yourselves.

Your asking people to CnC you? LOL.

Anyway it looks purdy, actually one really picky thing, I feel the text should be slightly closer to the logo itself? It seems a bit to far apart atm.

So posh. Pfft, there should be termly fees to enrol.

Bevel instead of a drop shadow on the horse? Would blend better onto the shield.

Cnc is always appreciated, why would I not?
Large canvas, haven't cropped cause I like the space.
Thanks.

Only problem is, I don't want points.
I'd prefer community service, in which students would make gifts or pump out a lot of pieces to be critiqued.

Would be a good idea except bevel on gimp is absolutely hideous, anything pertaining to logo design really.
That's why I'll scratch everything until I get my hands on a copy of PS/illy.

Just I would kind of feel intimidated giving some bad points to someone who is far out of my league :?

Anyhow your more than welcome.

Nah, we shall never charge for service.

Although, I have a feeling opening a shop called The Cafeteria and doing some sort of special offer for those in the Academy will be funny.

Can't wait for this to gogo.

OMD, I read that exactly as the song i'm listening to said "Go,Go,Go", By christ.

Also that Cafe idea sounds like a plan? Don't suppose I could possibly have a Double Decaf Tag? XD

You scratched the horse? Imo gold shadow looks a bit too strong on the fx. But man you people are cranking out some good logos and s***.

Just I would kind of feel intimidated giving some bad points to someone who is far out of my league :???:

Never feel intimidated by other artists. If you can find something you feel can be improved on, I'm sure the artist would gladly accept that criticism, whether it be accurate or not. Let's also not forget the other half of cnc, which would be what actually works on the piece/what you liked about it.

I believe it would look a lot better with a Dark grey and white version without the reflection. It would be more professional.

Looks great, like always, Night. However, with how the coloring and set up is with the shield, the F looks more like an E. If not for the title and the comments, I would have thought it was an E. For the texture of the shield, it feels a little off and makes it look flat. Love the hint of the hint of the pattern you have behind the texture, though. Absents of the G on the shield is kinda bothering me, too, but that's mostly just me and my taste. xD Lookin' forward to seeing more, Boss! o(≧∇≦o )

dude, remind me and I'll try to find a good ZIP PS CS4 portable.

Anyway, the edges on the leaves seem slightly LQ, and I think the lion should be brighter. It's not sticking out too well atm.

Other than that, I like.

I don't know is CS6's portable has been released, but I can check. However, I honestly can't tell a difference performance wise between CS3 and 4 for what I use them for.

My portable has been working fine, and i've had it for 2 years, give or take the occasional failure of opening files.

I suppose it all just depends on your system.

Just got a buddy of mine over, I may have mentioned I was interested in a copy of CS6, went to get something from the fridge and by the time I returned the CS6 Master collection was queued on utorrent ;3
Thank god for cheap alternatives.
