Opinions on Revised Logo?

Hey guys! So, I updated one of my logo concepts based on feedback from some of you. Any opinions on this revised concept?

I'm posting the original along with the revised (one with the name inside the mark and one with the name outside).

3 typefaces on a logo, probably too many.

Could be but when I look at it I see only 2 typefaces and something that looks written in. Maybe it's just me.:)

I'm pretty sure the something that looks written in is actually a humanist sans-serif kinda like lobster.

Hi Ashley,

I really like the new design it looks very clean, well done. My fav is the one with the name inside but the other is nice too. The new logo makes your original look dated somehow.

Thanks, Wayne! I agree about the first concept looking dated against this one. I guess that's a good thing. :)

Hi,

Great work! Nice approach on using a iMac as your ink container. Have you tried doing an outline of your logo to compare and contrast different styles?

Thanks! I haven't tried that - what do you mean by styles, exactly? The colors - or something else?

It's clean.

2,#3, If it is to be on printed media it might be costly for the ink.

Favorite is #3.

I like the separation of colors that looks like a smile (subtle). I might play around with a very light transparency of a child looking toward the camera smiling. My opinion only. I would want to infuse the idea of happy. That can be done with a smiling eye and not just a mouth.

Everyone has their own opinion. Go with your gut. I like it.

Thanks, Thomas! I'm pleased you picked up on the subtle smile - I wanted that effect, but wasn't sure it would come across. But that's part of what subtle means, I suppose. :)
