Deepak on December 2 2014 17:32 UTCNeed Improvement

Hey Aditya,


Hope you having fun in doing task. Here is the feedback:


No doubt, you have done your work wonderfully but you can make it little more attractive by using some other font and also you can try something else other than pink background to make it a wonderful masterpiece. But your ideas were really great :).

Sean on December 3 2014 04:24 UTCgetting better

Aditya,


Your design is getting better but there's still more room for improvement. Here are some specific issues to think about:



  1. you have four different versions of red/pink, and they're aesthetically conflicting

  2. the background logo image is heavily aliased (it's blocky looking) because it's too low resolution

  3. the text over the background image is difficult to read.  there needs to be more contrast (i.e., either lighter background and darker text or lighter/white text and a darker background.

  4. the logo in the corner is unusually large with no other stylistic elements to reinforce it as a conscious choice (which makes it seem even more huge, unnecessarily)

  5. the corner logo is wholly redundant with the background logo.


I appreciated the PDF format in addition to the PSD files.  Much easier to review, thanks!


 

Aditya Gulation December 3 2014 06:37 UTCQuery

Sir,


1.)Please tell me which files to continue editing as of right now I have 4 file


(option1,option2,new option1,new option2)


2.)The background logo is the highest quality I could find, please tell me if I should remove it or change(reduce) its size.


3.)Also I have 2 files of Red/Pink color(option1,option2)And 2 Files of blue background(new option1,new option2), Please tell me if I should fully change the color of the background or just change the shade. And if I continue the old background then should I continue the red or the blue.


Regards,


Aditya

Hi Aditya!


You are definitely on the right track but there are few issues you should try and fix. First of all, red text over blue background or vice versa is not an easy combination for the eye. You can read more about it here: http://www.blog.theteamw.com/2009/11/09/100-things-you-should-know-about-people-9-chromostereopsis-is-hard-on-the-eyes/


I suggest changing the color scheme altogether; don't worry if you're not sure about what colors you should go for, most designers are not naturals when it comes to this. You can use tools like this one which help you search through a large number of color palettes  http://www.colourlovers.com/palettes/search?query=red+black ; I already made a query for red and black (because those are our starting colors since you can find them in the logo), the rest is up to, you can choose whichever seems more pleasing and which you feel fits better with our logo.

I like the new color scheme much more!  I don't really like the way the text changes colors when it overlaps the logo-I think one text color would be much easier on the eyes.
