I like the ideas Cory. And I do think they'd tie in nicely with the new
site once redeveloped. I'm working on some mockups with the other fellas
as we speak. So hopefully we could get it to tie in nicely with your
logo concepts theme wise.

I like the effect of the second one better than the first. With the
second one, it's too sharp and requires the softness of the first.
Perhaps use the same first image but just add the tagline above it for a
logo with tagline. But still keep them as 2 different images. Oh and I
think you should ditch the 10.10 text. I don't think it's relevant for
the long-term and is only going to cause disruption and confusion over a
period of time among members old and new.

Regards

 I like these.  How about having the CoF replace the 'o' in Studio?  That
 might be kind of slick.  Where it's currently placed contrasts a bit weirdly
 with the 'i'.  When I look at it, my mind wants to make the CoF the dot for
 the 'i'.  Just some thoughts.


Please don't top-post. In Gmail, just move the cursor below the quoted 
text. Thanx. :)


Replacing the o isn't an option as it would throw off the look of the 
text. The text itself is as important as the COF. That said, I did think 
of replacing the dot on the i but it would be small for most uses. 
Just like the tagline in the second image.

I'm still gonna get some opinions from some other design folks. I just 
wanted to post so the folks doin' the site refresh knew my direction.

And for the new folks who don't know, I'm the original creator of 
Studio. Scott's in charge now. I'm just occationally guiding and 
tinkering with art. ;)

Ha! Sorry, I thought I had gotten good at remembering to do that.
