just doing a logo for my uni sky diving club, any suggestions for a good font? i dont like the current typography

any comments on the design will be welcome as well

Jay-NL · 24-08-2004, 11:11

Comic Sans?
Seriously, the logo seems a bit unbalanced to me. Maybe it's the long arms. A bit unpractical as well. Hmm... Vary the whitespace between the orange guy and the blue sky. Shift the "hull university" a bit left maybe.
The guy and arrow symbols are really powerful, but they clash with the roundness of the cloud. But it could just be me.

might just scrap the clouds!

cheers for the comments, will make improvements

Keep the clouds - lose the arrow

Mik · 24-08-2004, 12:19

i hate sky diving. this was taken the last time i went:

i thought i'd pissed my self when we landed.

i say landed. the bloke on top of me landed. i just fell to the ground crying.

sigh.

Brown · 24-08-2004, 12:57

oli · 24-08-2004, 13:00

Wouldnt mind giving it a go, probably shit myself though.

Brown · 24-08-2004, 13:04

it should be on your list of things to do once.

clue's at the end of the sentence.

agree, arrow pointing down seems dynamic... powerful...

also agree... work those T-2000 arms out...

dorian · 24-08-2004, 13:07

I'm shit-scared of heights. but i do want to try parachuting.

stickmus · 24-08-2004, 13:09

Disgree: that arrow just looks silly to me...

Maybe if the whole blue bit was the arrow, that'd work for me. But it just looks to small to me.

adras · 24-08-2004, 15:48

get rid of the arrow, it doesn't fit.

seen.to · 24-08-2004, 17:45

Deffo lose the arrow. Maybe make the blue sky a bit more sky blue.

Arrow good, wings need taming in my opinion. My mum went to Hull, is it better than it was?
