Re: Team 2052 Logo

I think it is an awesome web-based logo. I believe that the gradients and bevels, and even to some extent the sharp edges could be integrated into an award winning web-page theme. The unevenness gives it a very nice organic feel, and the lighting effects that you made with shadows/accents on the legs and face of the thing are very well done.


But...

Uber was right in that if you are planning on using this in a printed publication, you are going to need to make a simpler version, about 3-4 colors is what most companies look for in a design. That way it can be reproduced on say... a business card... without breaking the bank.


Overall, very good work. One thing to keep in mind for future designs, however, is that bevels and gradients are great for realism or web design, but you want to steer clear of them for most print applications.
