This is a logo we designed for a good friend of ours that does reviews on medical files for court cases.

We burned it to a CD in 7 different file types in both black and white. We make up a nice cover illustration and an even cooler label for the CD utilizing aspects of the logo.

Have a great one!

You nailed it right on all the elements. Excellent design. I've told you before, you really ought to consider doing this for a living.
Funny thing is I spent the last hour of the day looking for that medical symbol for a customers window lettering.

Great design. Great colours. I would have never used that colour (and size) ampersand on that colour of panel. I will now though! I love learning stuff from others' work. Nice job, Bruce.

i agree bob,
one of the coolest things is how a part of that ampersand is hidden by the copy, yet it reads nicely as an ampersand.

yoo rock bubba.

Hey everyone...

Thank you very much for the kind words. It means a lot coming from my peers. Gosh, you are all making me blush...

This logo was designed to used for a website. Too bad because it would have made one heck of a 3-D sign project!

I will post the label and cover tomarrow for those who asked.

Have a great one!

I love it too Bruce!!

I want to learn something here though. I don't have any experience in color printing and was under the understanding that a black and white logo couldn't contain shades of grey.

I sent a logo with some grey shadows to have printed on my checks. They could not reproduce the logo because it was not black and white. They were going to have to scan it in and charge extra.

I guess that is my question. When a customer requests a black and white logo, do you design in greyscale, or just the two colors?

I learn something new here everyday! Beautiful work Bruce.
