    Rio 2016 logo...

    Does seem a weird shape, only makes sense after seeing on the mountains! Ah, the luxury of having people write articles to explain what the ideas mean...!! Better than the 2012 one though I'd say! But yea, I'd have said dummy too

    The Mastercard rebrand

    Hadn't really noticed the colours had changed (says so in article, but not coming across on my phone?). Personally I prefer the interlocking lines - might have been down to one of their add campaigns but looked more like it was 'going somewhere' I thought. Wouldn't say this feels more 'digital'...

    Logo Feedback Jean Picard

    Nice! I like the 1st one on 2nd row (when stairs back in line ans JE..A..N sorted). I'd say the 2nd business card, with the bricks dotted around, looks a bit cluttered and random - if you're going to incorporate the bricks, maybe just having some at the bottom, so don't detract from the logo...

    Advice with Lego copyright

    I would think that's a copyright issue - you'd be better off doing your own illustrations (not of lego figures though!) You didn't create the lego figures, and wouldn't be able to as Lego is a trademark, so I would steer very clear of it!

    Online Graphic Design Courses

    Not sure if you're just after some basic short courses, but I studied a degree course online while working full time. It was really tough, and expensive (I couldn't afford the final year - financially or timewise unfortunately, so finished with a Diploma rather than a degree) but that was...

    co.uk domain name

    I haven't gone through with a registrar yet, but when I looked on namcheckr it came up with .com, .co (only, not .co.uk) and a ton others (fb, twitter, flickr, loads more) but just not .co.uk. I'm considering siteground now as looks like Hover don't actually provide hosting, or may just go...

    co.uk domain name

    Great thanks, I used namecheckr and .co.uk didn't come up so I assume that's taken then! Guess I'll have to go for .com Do you get lots of spam emails Scotty? I was opting for Hover as they protect your details and I saw that free domain name options can mean you get lots of spam etc. As...

    co.uk domain name

    Advice please - I was planning to buy a domain name and set up a basic website on Hover, but I can only see .co option, not co.uk... Where is the best place to get co.uk from? I'm not a web designer / developer so looking for a site where I can get my domain name, and host my portfolio...

    Stuck with a logo design project

    That's helpful - something's missing but no more feedback on what it is... great! ;) I much prefer the one colour - I couldn't see the cog on the light and dark blue version until I saw the white one and could see the shape better. And to stop it looking like 2 Ws maybe remove the curve at the...

    Logo for my personal websites

    I like the spacing of the one you tweaked, though spelling out the 'dot' doesn't quite work for me - perhaps converting back to a dot but keeping that spacing makes it clear it is 'that leo .com' as with the dot aligned to text may be clearer is part of it...

    How to bring to money into conversation?

    You could ask them what their expected budget is? I put this on my brief that I ask them to complete and explain it's so I have an idea if I'm going to be able to deliver what they're after in the time their budget will allow...

    feedback on my logo, please ;)

    I like the way the 3D one slots in to each other - looks more interesting than the flat one. The slants on the 2 make me think of old retro computer graphics as looks a bit pixel-like, so not as modern as I'd normally go for but that's just my personal style!

    Need help choosing a logo

    Hi John, My first thought was that on the last 3 the font reminded me of JD Sports - having included a screenshot can see it's not quite the same side by side, but singling the JD at the front still makes me think of the sports brand. My preference on the icons are I like the W with a...

    Advice on logo design

    I find this a bit tricky too - useful tip Paul, that's what I've been trying so good to know not completely off track. Practice makes perfect and all that!
