Hey.. was the typo deliberate? Professional is the usual spelling.

Otherwise, I LOVE IT!
Simple, effective, pleasing!

I like it, also. Correct the spelling and you are good to go.

I'm not the greatest speller either!

Can't get my eyes of it...
Very simple yet professional..

VanessaJW · #7 (**permalink**) Oct 5th, 2007, 05:58

Yep, a thumbs up from me too!

If I was being critical then I'd say the name doesn't fit with the logo. The word "maniac" suggests something with a little more enthusiasm, whereas your design is clean and concise. More clinical than fanatical.

I like of the look of it though!

Very nice. May I enquire as to which program you used to create that and how you made the gradient circle border?

motormaniac · #11 (**permalink**) Oct 6th, 2007, 04:08

thank you. I just used
The GIMP 2.4 RC3 (GIMP 2.2 is the latest stable version) and to make the circle thing, its kinda took awhile for me to figure this out sense gimp is not as good as photoshop. but ill do my best to tell you. i made a transparent layer then i took the circle selection tool and made the shape of circle i wanted. then filled it with a color. then make a slightly smaller circle on top of that layer. fill it with white. then tilt that circle jsut slightly. then click alpha to selection and delete that layer. then with the selection still active take a big eraser and eraser every thing in the selection. then u have your basic circle.

i hope that helped. if u have any other questions let me know.

I went with that idea a few years ago (using an oval I mean)

cool.

It's great logo, nice and simple.
What I like about it, is that it can be incorporated into a design quite easily.
Well done!

I really like it. It's nice and simple but thanks to some well chosen fonts it still has a little 'edge' which stops it from being dull.

thank you for the comments

Nice logo - I agree with the 'maniac' part, maybe a bit more "craze", you know?

Very nice. Simple and stylish, which is exactly what is looked for in a logo.
Good job.
