May 17, 200917 yr Hi guys, I have been making my logo in photoshop for my recruitment agency.. and I need your professional opinions please. Which logo do you think is the best? I have also attached a printscreen of my home page so you get an idea of the colour scheme... thanks
May 17, 200917 yr your logo designs need to express the same kinds of ideas expressed by the words 'job jar'. At the moment none of the logos are associated with the words. More fundamentally I'm not sure what a 'job jar' is or would be. What is the metaphor? Once you've determined what 'job jar' means, you'll find it easier to design a logo to match that meaning. The key is that there should be a clear relationship between the logo symbol and the logo text.

Its a recruitment agency, wanted to come up with a catchy name and thought of JobJar, as its alliteration, perhaps an image of some jobs in a jar would be relevant
May 18, 200917 yr http://www.webdesignerforum.co.uk/index.ph...ost&id=3778 I like that one most out of all them. However, the logo is far too generic and suggested above, you're better off making something more relevant. If done correctly you could come up with something truly creative. Here's some inspiration
May 18, 200917 yr I like the image you have of the multi-coloured jigsaw. The problem is the font you are using - its not particularly stylish and quite old-fashioned. Try looking on some design inspration sites for examples.
May 18, 200917 yr Concur with the comments above. The first thing that hit me is the lack of alignment between the logo image and the name. They're simply two random items stuck together in the hope they fit - sadly they don't. As rosiep suggests the logo and name need to have a visual relationship of some kind, other than the relationship of physical proximity. Good place to get some advice or inspiration is David Airey's site.

Here's some inspiration I have come up with some ideas like having the words JOBJAR crammed into a jar, or the words JOBJAR coming out of a jar, something along those lines. But I only have 2 days experience of Photoshop and haven't got the slightest of where to begin. Any designers out there?
May 18, 200917 yr Author Hi, I've been playing around with different fonts. Which font do you think is the best?? Thanks
May 18, 200917 yr Hi, I've been playing around with different fonts. Which font do you think is the best?? Thanks I didn't find anyone i like. It is better to use a simple one. and not curvy
May 18, 200917 yr Out of all of them, I'd have to Say the 2nd and 6th. But not overly keene on any of them tbh!
May 18, 200917 yr I like the third one best. In my opinion though, I wouldn't use the bevel and emboss on text. I think it looks tacky try other methods of adding effects to your text.
May 20, 200917 yr Author OK, well now I have been working on my logo and have come up with this, what do you guys reckon? Please be honest, thanks!
May 21, 200917 yr Your heading in the right direction. It needs to be more polished. The letters are too squashed and there is too much bevel (I think that's what it is) on the word 'recruitment'. Why not try combining the two ideas, like having some jigsaw peices in a jar? It might be difficult to make it look like a real jar with peices inside but it's worth a shot. Or search istockphoto for the word jar, and use somebody else's image with your text logo.
