WF logo variation



yes, definitely add that extra flame if you don't mind. I need a new BG, was using the one dreamache made awhile ago but I need something fresh again. Look great man!
 
You couldn't have chosen a better font for the picture. It makes everything perfect. Overall excellent job.
 
you incorporated 2 styles that are trending right now: greyscale & naturals (stone and metal stripe effect) which will win the popular vote

This ain't WAFO you don't have to suck the ecock of every piece of shit posted on this site. Dreamache said himself the site owner was going with a better version. I can show you at least two posts where I have complemented his work. He is actually very talented. I have no doubt he is one of the top designers on WF.

As to OP. a guy who calls himself the duke of aesthetics should no better than to post that awful font or leave out the WF flame

I didn't even notice that little flame lick was missing until now! Weird that so many have fixated on that. This is more "art piece" than logo re-design. I just did it for creativity's sake. I won't be revisiting it, except maybe to make some requested size variations.

Also, regarding the font choice, I defended my selection in an earlier post, and asked for suggestions if there is a better option. Care to oblige?
 
I agree that you picked the proper font, but I think that you should just remove "wickedfire" completely... change the background to black (personal preference, the current one looks dope just a bit cluttered)... and add the lick of flame.

Imo, it would be pretty dumb of you to completely abandon the possibility of "revisiting" the design. A few minor tweaks and you increase the potential to use this as personal branding.

All in all, great work though.

Oh, I was thinking exactly this. Removing the "Wickedfire" at the bottom is very simple. I'll probably put this on my portfolio at some point. I dunno.

Adding the flame lick would not be so minor. That's what I meant by "revisit". However, I can see there's quite a bit of interest in it. Hopefully I'll get some more free time soon to add that element. Obviously with usual client interaction I don't have the choice to wait to fix stuff to their liking :) I want to keep this kind of thing relaxing as a personal incentive to keep doing it, and save the stress of running a tight ship for non-personal projects.
 
I like it, but would love it more in the original colors.

Dope stuff, tho.

Hey bro didn't really mean to offend. I am kind of a purist, so anything that's not the original will bug me. I started looking at it a little closer and am thinking perhaps my initial impression was a bit off. In my humble opinion no WF logo/art is complete with out a touch of flame (eyes?) somewhere.

I think it was the shading/color that I didn't care for on the original font. Either way its still cool you took the time to put this together.
 
I love it!

A possible alternative idea for the typeface: a narrow, all-caps sans, maybe Steelfish or, better, a narrow DIN font... with the same technozoic treatment as the eyes in the face. Color, soft glow, scanlines.

I especially like the contrast between the polygon style and the futuristic treatment of the eyes, and I think if the type was set in that style too, it would emphasize that contrast and give the whole thing more of an edge. Right now, the type weighs more than the face due to its color.

Not missing the flame lick at all btw. Good stuff man.
 
woke up and looked at again.. this thing is dope as fuck man.. I really like it. Hope you get some time to take in some of the suggestions, but I understand not wanting to commit the time to fucking with it.

bobsoap's comment about the type is 100% spot on
