    I agree with John. It doesn't look like a compass to me. It looks more like a ship's helm.

    I love the typography.

      Thanks for your feedback.

      I tried to go for a more olden compass look, such as the one below. http://www.leehansen.com/clipart/Themes/Pirates/images/compass-rose.gif Keeping that in mind, there also had to be a "wheel" sort of feel to it. That's why my design looks as it is. At the same time, I didn't want to make it look exactly like a real compass. I wanted it to have its own unique feel.
