I will have a more minimalistic version by tomorrow night if that's OK. Still tweaking and not quite ready to post. Getting tired of looking at it, plus Monday Night Football is on.

Some progress. Less than 7k and fairly minimalistic. Still working on it though.

Try san serif fonts...

You know, I've tried 200 different fonts in this particular layout and I keep coming back to the serif ones. There is something classy about them that I like. But I'll find something acceptable sans serif and post it shortly.

San Serif (or semi-sans) is smaller in file size, prints better on t-shirts and are generally more suitable to logotypes.

I had to tweak the font a bit but here it is.

Thunau · 9th December 2004, 03:04 AM

I dropped the shadows (pun intended). I kind of like it like this. Under 5k!

planet10 · 9th December 2004, 03:30 AM

how about taking more advantage of the coll DIY bit you've done... something like this (jus a rough stab at the text bits ... i'd think the word audio could be made to flow out of the audio)

I've been down that route a few days back. I would have to stylize the audio.com part to flow with the DIY part and that was getting a bit too dificult. I have a very particular taste in graphics (not necessary what others like), plus I'm limited in my graphic skills. I'll be happy to give it one more shot this evening.
