Thanks Vanessa. Agree a bit of spacing between 'Mon' and 'Maintenance' would help - will take a look at that. No feedback from the client yet. Will chase now and see what he thinks....

Yeah, that's classic isn't it! The original is on the second row, right hand side.

Latest efforts...

Thanks for your feedback, Levi. The client specifically told me a story about another company he knew that changed their logo and no one recognised them, so he definitely gave the the steer that he didn't want to depart too far from the current format. He also said how hard it was to have the...

Hi, I'm helping out a local guy with a new logo for his business. I'd thought I'd done a half decent job of updating it, but he's not happy - too basic and not dynamic enough. The brief was to modernise his logo whilst maintaining the DNA so his clients would still recognise his business. I'm...

Probably a day to come up with 2 or 3 concepts for the client. Then half a day to refine based on feedback. Internal pages, probably an hour or two.

Not really the target audience, but point taken.

I use Joomla for all my sites. I'd love to be able to offer WordPress too, but never found the time to figure out how to build a template (although it's bound to be easier than Joomla) I don't know about gadgets or widgets, but key plugins for me are Akeeba, JCE Editor, RS Forms, joomSEO...

As posted above, definitely build up a portfolio - get your own site online. Build sites for friends, family or local charities. No one will buy anything from you unless they can see examples of your work. Then I would say learn to use one of the major Content Menegment Systems (CMSs) e.g...

Its definitely got legs... In terms of improvement, I think really, I can only echo many of the comments already posted: Logo needs to be a constant feature - maybe even if it's built into each of the slides - maybe 1/3 of each slide is taken up by the logo? The font in the main menu needs to...

Hi Guys, I'm struggling.:mad: I don't normally have a problem coming up with good designs for my clients: Coasteering Wales Home | SkillSearcher Holyhead Town Council However, my latest project is proving hard work. I have submitted a couple of concepts that I thought were a good start (not...

I've used MOO loads of times now and recommend them to everybody. Great quality, nice double sided feature, well packaged, low volumes. Ideal.

Guys. Thanks for all the advice - much appreciated.

Thanks for the comments so far. The image is being sent to a company who's going to include the logo in a delegate pack so unfortunately I cannot ask the printer. I did ask my local printer and his response was that 0,0,0,75 will be fine. But I'm not sure I trust him :( - it's a relatively...

Hi All, I have a logo that needs a 75% grey, but suspect it might look a bit crap when printed if I use the CMYK colour 0C, 0M,0Y,75K I know that for a rich black it's recommended to mix in some other colours and use something like 50C, 50M, 0Y, 100K. Sould I do something similar for grey? If...
