not sure

current website is: www.axonfoto.com
response to the current black & reddish colours and large "X" have been positive - but I'm not fixed on that at all.

Just so you know... an "axon" is part of the nerve cell in the brain that transmits electrical signals.

The initial logo needs to be versatile... and specifically used for the website, business cards and very important - watermarking of photo images.

Once we get the initial version nailed, *future* versions should be flexible enough to be created for: 1) also include the web adddress or my name - b.matthew; 2) have a vertical version; 3) different colours - to support watermarking over different image types.

There are no requirements for print other than b-cards.

some examples - some are VERY simple

    #124 - would be geat to see this where 'foto' is in the same font and style as 'axon' #133/134 - really like this now w/out the reflection and how it's all on a single line. thx for adding in the www tagline to show how that would look

    Hi All, I am still totally blown away by the results so far - completely amazing. Project is about 1/2 done. I was off-line for a day. Will start being more aggressive on the rates and elminations to narrow things down. b

    Some more notes based on recent submissions: #46 – Alfdesign - Simply brilliant! How would this look w/ white background? # 43/44 – getender007 – A bit to informal looking for my taste. Not bold enough. #32 /33 – ronne – Dig the style. Part of the X is a bit too Nike-swoosh for me though. On 32 – the styling of the “O” isn’t to my taste. I’m not linking it to photography. #29, 30/ 31 – Sergem – Very creative. Love what you did w/ the “O” to mix-up the aperture and the cellular / axon bits. 35 /36 – lakshmiks – really like this. Very clean. Very straightforward. Thanks for making the tweaks. Re: 37/ 38 - I like it, but I’m still getting use to the style. Give me more time to let it sink in. 25 / 26- raven - like this. Very clean. Very straightforward. Thanks for making the tweaks.

    All - The work coming is a AMAZING. I'm blown away by the quality. Was definitely not expecting this. It's going to be tough, but I'm going to start narrowing this down a bit.

    Wow… Amazing stuff. Please keep them coming. Some general comments for all to see: #20 Dany96 - Really dig it! Like the how part of the X is a chevron… give the feel of movement / progress. Could you do one w/out the reflection? And also maybe a version that it a bit bolder and/or stretched-out? #16, #19 – Mojo – Really like splatted X concept. Can you make it look more like an X? In a certain view it’s a bit like an H. #17 – Mojo - I don’t like the camera aperture as the O. Just not my style. #15, #18 – gtender007 – Great work, but these styles are too flowy and busy for my style. #11, #13 – Creation – Very interesting design. Wasn’t expecting to like something in that style, but I do. I prefer 11 over 13. Are there some other fonts or playing around the symbol that you could do? Also maybe a bit darker red on the font? #9, #10 – anujdate – Love the font, but am not a fan of the camera logo. Would be keen to seem some other versions w/out it.

    Hi! Love the work so far. Thanks so much! Some early feedback and other thoughts: #1 - Really like the creative look of this. Very design / creative. I’m still getting used to this one though. The “a” doesn’t totally stand out enough for me. How would this look in a more linear version? E.g. w/ foto on the same level? #2 / #3 - Very solid. Is possible to see a few different variations – e.g. one that is maybe a bit blockier / thicker; something a bit stretched-out; different variations of “foto” and the “|”’s #4 – I’m not sure about this one yet – but it really caught my eye. There’s something elegant and energetic about the axon font. Would love to #5 – Overall this doesn’t work. I don’t like the main font or the horizontal / vertical mix. I do really like the font used for “foto”. Could you try something different with that? #6 - Still thinking about this one. #7 – Nice and clean – I like it. How would a more linear version look? E.g. w/ foto on the same level? #8 – Too close / similar to what I already have. Other thoughts I think once the eventual design is finalised, it will need to versatile so that I can also do thing like have a version the has the web address or my name underneath or as part of it. I’m guessing that means it needs to be linear – more like #’s 2, 3, 4, 6 Is anyone up for trying some versions with an adjoining symbol or icon?
