  • Concept: Logo design : quick rough photoshop version

    looks quite technical

    ...with the electric wave and all. As I understand HR this needs more "human".

    • Concept: How to Learn Icon Concepts

      they are all good

      1) no. 4 (I am so old school :-D), 2) no.3 but maybe no. 2 is better as a icon, it is simpler.

        • Thanks Miro. Which icon 1-4 do you feel speaks to the concept of "Learning" the most?

          Posted: on Feb 10, 2010 at 2:35 PM
        • I think no. 4 is the most "learning", book is always so obvious sign for learning (to me).

      • Concept: Integra logotype

        Very nice

        I like the use of colors. Only thing I would change is the little shadow you have in the word "integra".

        • Concept: Website Design for StringGroup

          combine 1 and 3

          No 1 is very good and no 3 is very good but a bit busy. Combine those and I think you´ll have the best result.

            • Thanks for the feedback Miro. I totally wanted to do as you said, but final thing turned out different based on clients feedback.

              Just posted (on top) a final design which is edited based on clients feedback.

          • Concept: itsfilmtastic.co.uk - Film Blog design V3

            logos

            I like it, so much better than the last one I think. Have you tried making the twitter and facebook logos for example blue? To add some color and to highlight them.

              • I could try that, as the design does need another colour from red.

            • Concept: Re design for cloudcomputingconsutancy

              content area

              I believe you should think what your main strengths are and highlight them in some way on the front page. A couple of drawings or pictures would say so much... Otherwise very fresh and nice style!

                Keep on experimenting

                You can do big changes with just small adjustments to the sizes - and remember white space!

              • Concept: “Escúchanos Madrecita”

                I like it

                I think this is more art than a poster, so it is very hard to say why I like it. But I do, it has an idea, is simple and nice!

                • Concept: WebScience new Website

                  text next to the image

                  Looks good, but is there too much text next to the main image? I mean this is the part that gets the first look and should be easy to digest.

                  • Concept: Website Re-Design for "CDC Concrete Repair" *Updated*

                    typography

                    You could use orange buttons for call to action points in the lower part of the page. Also you could use more size variation on the texts (in the lower part of the page). And maybe use white to emphasize words in the top area.

                    • Concept: Law Firm

                      darken the dark area

                      I don´t think it is that bad, even though you think so. One small thing I would do is darken the dark area under the bullet point lists, that way they would be easier to read on the busy image background.

                        the pink

                        I think you should try it with less pink, that way the pink color would work as a guide to call to action points. Now there is just too much pink for it to work. However I like your color choice, it´s original.

                        • Concept: Logo re-design

                          try more versions

                          I think you should start again and leave that symbol (what that is :-D) in your new logo. I don´t like too much about the typefaces you have chosen. Not very technological...

                            • I like the two with the ball-symbols. Can you explain the meaning of those balls, and the net that was connecting them in the old logo?

                              Posted: on Feb 09, 2010 at 2:13 PM
                            • These were simply nodes in a network as "C" in ICT stands for sommunication. The new w"balls" are quite abstract,, but also relate to networking.

                              Posted: on Feb 09, 2010 at 2:21 PM
                            • Ok, in that case I like most the one with three balls, because it has the "network" in it. You could try making the "web security made simple" shorter, the same length as the "ICT institute".

                            I like no. 2

                            I feel the mouse in no. 1 is too general sign, no. 3 with the sign, o and the usb wire is too complicated and no. 4 does not tell enough. To me no. 2 is the best! All are very well finished, very pleasant to look at.

                              Looks very nice and fresh! Only thing I find is that it is a bit strange that some items from the top menu are in the secondary menu at the right and some are not. But hey, very nice as I already said!

                                  I tried to rearrange the stuff (& the "visual weight") according to the AIDA model (please comment, do you think this is the right way to do it?). Attention - the animated area. Interest - the 1-2-3 list right to the animation. Desire - the bullet point lists. Action - the order now -list.

                                  • I like this design a lot more. The featured area has been moved up and removed the unneeded white space. I also think the layout of the 1-2-3 is much better. I would like to see a better CTA. neither design has a great one. You may think of including it in the header.

                                  This is not a common way to do a coming-soon page, but how about adding a few thumbnails and links to your works (online)? That way people could at least see a little bit of what you do while waiting for your site to launch.

                                    The use of black and white makes it look very technological to me. I would have used more outdoor colors (white bg, maybe blue, green...). Also I would use bigger pictures, because I think in this case it´s the pictures that sell the product.

                                      it depends...

                                      What kind of design you are doing? I like the last one most, it looks very stylish, but it could be even too high class looking for every day design style. But yes it looks clean, fresh and artistic to me.

                                          The slider

                                          You have an interesting idea, I hope you get it to work as you planned. If the content on these sides is different, how can the user get from one side to the another after choosing it in the beginning? Maybe you should leave the slider visible?

                                            • Thank you Miro for posting.The content will be roughly the same on both versions/sides.I'm still thinking if it's worth implementing the testimonials/latest blog posts features in the creative version from the right since I don't want to sabotage the design by creating additional elements that might make it crowded.

                                              The slider will most definitely be present after the user/visitor selects a version of the design.It will be placed on the left side/right side near his internet browser margins so if for example a user gets bored with the corporate design he can drag the slider from the right margin of his internet browser to the left and thus unveiling the creative design.

                                              Thank you again for your post!

                                            Train is looking good

                                            But I would add some speech bubbles, as you had in your earlier version. So that it would look as the train was full of opinions.

                                              • I am thinking about using animated speech bubbles that would appear in various different places on the train, starting small and groing until the size of the speech bubble in the first version. What do you think?

                                              • I think it is a good idea. Go easy on the animation, so that it won´t distract reading the body text.
