Crude & Simple idea that I'm considering, but there may be programs that can make it look a little better or just some fellow AZers opinions would be great, Thanks....It will be engraved in the butt cap or Hoppe ring NOT handwritten, because my handwriting sux :D

I think it's hard to notice the "KT" letters on that logo. A logo should be simple enough to be understood by all, yet artistic at the same time.

I like it ,its kool!
 
I think you should take the date out of there. My eye automatically goes to the date and I dont note the KT.
 
I realize these are your initials, and it's probably just me, but when I think of KT, I think of this.

Let me add that my initials of JAM gave me a chuckle one time. I was asked to do a job for the United States Marine Corps about the Iraq War. Imagine my shock when I realized my initials stood for an armed militia known as Jaish al-Mahdi (JAM). I was wondering what the Marine Corps would think if they knew their job was performed by JAM! :embarrassed2:
 
I like Bill's suggestion, or maybe just go vertical with it, and make the left vertical line/"backbone" of the K go straight down into the vertical/'spine' of the T?

Damn I wish I had mspaint on this laptop, hard to explain what I mean. :(

A logo should be easily understood

This is the first time I've heard of this. I just visited that website. Thanks for sharing this bit of info. I'm going to pass it forward to some colleagues. This looks like a very good place to obtain a logo for a fair rate! :smile:

I didn't know what his initials are and didn't know what he was making the logo for or trying to sell. I didn't see his little note at the bottom until I scrolled down.

With that said I also thought it was part of a house and he was going into the remodeling business.

Then with further study it looked like a cave drawing of a dog or horse.

Then I thought it was a stick figure of a pool player stroking a elevated shot.

Then after reading some of the other posts and going back to the original I seen that at the bottom was his name and that he wants to build cues.

I would say that the no logo would make me want to buy a cue. Put more effort into building a cue instead of trying to come up with a logo. Many cue makers will change their logo as they comntinue in the business. This also helps to ID a cue and adds a little more mystique to it.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I really liked it then I read your comments & now Im like WTH was I thinking. So back to the drawing board to come up with something "simple & artistic" as SeanC suggested....maybe 99designs would be my best bet as I am not that artistic as you've seen. :thumbup:



Bill - I like it
