added some variations

the x and the m don't quite line up.

i don't think the scissors cutting up the crucifix quite works.

loose the clipart and just stick with the type (but play around with the typography).

dorian · 24-08-2004, 16:08

i'd say... rotate it 180°

The type needs a lot of work, but then since this is an early example I'm sure you planned to do that anyway.

If you really want to keep the box cutting thingy I'd say change the layout of the net to take away the look of a crucifix which is probably how most will see it. Probably take the top left flap and drop it down one... does that make sense? Sod it look at the attached for a quickly botched up idea of what I mean - obviously you'd want to spend time on it to make it look right. That way people that know it's a box net will know and others will just think it's some random symbol that looks a little like an X but not a crucifix.

I also think dropping the scissors down slightly to hit the text baseline helps.

clearer. the scissors still look odd - like you've asked david lynch or magritte for their input.

thanks for all the comments, will make changes!

I think the orange works quite nice on the box and it looks better up top

Don't like the 'glassbox' font.

stealthcow · 24-08-2004, 20:37

typography is next on things to do

stickmus · 25-08-2004, 04:45

Get rid of the dashed line...

doesnt look right with the glass thingy, get shot of it or make it cube shaped, ie ' a box'
