Hi James,

The concept you mention isn’t so applicable nowadays. Particularly as less and less people use fax machines. However, I do tend to prefer simplistic designs that don’t rely on colour, and logos will always be more adaptable if they can reproduce in a single tone.

Hi David,

What do you think of the old concept that a logo is only good when it’s faxed or photocopied? This occured to me recently, and old school worked, purely because the logo was 2 colour, but do ‘modern’ logos work, and I had to persuade the client that 2 colour’s good,
cheers

Brilliant! I particularly like the links to other resources for each of the designers. This is a great alternative to sites like Logo Pond and Logo Sauce because it is jam-packed with only the highest quality designs. Not to say that those other sites only have poor quality logos, but I think the majority can tend to be merely ok.

One question: why aren’t you in there? ;)

Oh yes, and Stumbled!

Excellent news, Kerry. I’m glad your meeting went well, and even though there wasn’t a job at the end of it, networking is vital, so great work.

tif,

Thanks for the suggestion. I love Allan’s Canadian National Railway logo, shown on this Logo Design Love monogram post.

Hi David, I love the new website. If no one suggested Alan Fleming, I’d like to suggest him. It would so great to see him on there too. All the things you design are so beautiful. I’m a fan.

Laters..

Hi David,

Just thought i’d let you know that the meeting with the studio manager went really well!!

Although they don’t have any jobs at the moment he liked my work (he even uttered the word wow at one piece!!) and told me to send in more as i finish it. He’s going to email me if any vacancies arise but because of the credit crunch things have been quiet.

All in all i’m really chuffed - even though i didn’t get a job, =)
