Feedback wanted - Preliminary look at Version 3 of website

If we're gonna run a competition will we be offering anything more for a prise than our eternal gratitude?

You know we should stock up on a few lidl binoculars for things like this...

I dont think we have anything to offer other than gratitude and fame at the moment.

Or keep an eye out for offers like that DK Universe one the Book People are doing.

Looking good Bart! But, I'll shed a few opinions on you!

* Increase the yellow - make it slightly darker, perhaps even adding a slight brown or orange tint - very slightly - to make an increase in contrast against its white background.

* Personally, I liked the black border at the sides. A white border, bordered by a blue line, bordered by a white & light blue background? Looks, well, confusing is the only word I can think of!

* If you like the Orion aspect, why not go for the real thing? Or even any other celestial object. If I may divert your attention to this:



-> never minding the 'Star Trek' font ( ), using the nucleus of the Black Eye galaxy is compact enough to use on a large scale zoomed in. I tried with the Orion nebula, and I can't quite get the same effect -> its so large,that to recognise it takes more zoom-out then -in! Its printer friendly too.

But its only a suggestion!

I know what your angle is on it - to have a defined logo that can both be printable in both colour, and B&W, and used e.g. future embroidering etc. for IFAS garments. But there is something lacking in the Orion star-point one. We do need to come up with something more defined and energetic - even in b&w.

Overall, I like the way this new look is heading!

Hi guys,

Had a bash at creating an IFAS logo- it started off being an eye with a star for a pupil (eye-fas, geddit? ) then I started at looking for ways to make it look more Irish. Started looking at celtic designs I could put within the eye- then it struck me that celtic spirals look something like a spiral galaxy if I spaced it out a little. So the result is this kind of celtic-eye-spiral thing.



I'll post up the rough work in a while- might serve as inspiration for others.
Cheers,
Dave P

like those circular patterns you might see at newgrange, great idea Dave P.
in terms of colour, how about a dark background, leave the green section as is and have the other 2 spirals white and orange,

something like this?
