I don't like the starlight thing.

fat pigeon on Aug 23 '07 at 4:48pm

I think the radiating light should be the same color as the light inside the lighthouse. I prefer the green personally.

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 4:48pm

yeah mezo, especially with the pink top

herky on Aug 23 '07 at 4:51pm

I vote for the green option

shirtflirt on Aug 23 '07 at 4:55pm

no more diamonds?

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 4:56pm

diamonds are for the band, shirt

usually for the design i use a pixel crown

all the diamonds you can tolerate, and then some :-P

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 4:58pm

made a green glory instead of black

Joelnz on Aug 23 '07 at 4:59pm

maybe lose the window and the spikey thing on the main body of the light house

impossiblejosh on Aug 23 '07 at 4:59pm

you need to big boulders at the botom of that hard shaft of a light tower

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 4:59pm

OMG PENIS JOKES

shirtflirt on Aug 23 '07 at 5:02pm

that link is awesome spires

i like this with the green glory

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 5:04pm

thanks shirt!

tesco on Aug 23 '07 at 5:06pm

it's quite well done but a bit complex for a logo. Simplify it if you dont want it looking shitty when scaled down.

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 5:08pm

Tesco, do you think at smaller sizes I could just eliminate the glory and use it only as an effect where appropriate?

Luke... on Aug 23 '07 at 5:11pm

maybe lose the base line [above the text] and put spires design on 2 lines directly below the tower [with same width]

not too sure about a light tower as a design symbol, though...
i know it might sound corny at first, but have you thought of using a modern looking "spire"

tesco on Aug 23 '07 at 5:11pm

the best ones from the first few pages of google:

I like how this one makes a circle

tesco on Aug 23 '07 at 5:12pm

spires: you could do but it's a bit of a cop out. the glory should remain!

nicolethelez on Aug 23 '07 at 5:17pm

everyone and their mother has a light house as a logo. unless you are building light houses for a living don't use it in your logo.

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 5:18pm

Those are really simple. I see what you mean.

Luke, I guess it is a spire, in that it extends towards the sky in a tapering fashion. Are there any modern looking castles?

tesco on Aug 23 '07 at 5:21pm

modern castles are now deep underground

Tonteau on Aug 23 '07 at 5:23pm

Bit complicated for a logo, imho.

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 5:26pm

i made a small one ^^

tesco on Aug 23 '07 at 5:31pm

looks messy to me. the window and other white bits could look like
print errors. the halo of light is way too fiddly (for me anyway). my advice: start again, make it as simple as you can then add details as you go. keep the helter skelter stripe though, it looks cool.

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 5:35pm

I'll do that tesco, and see what I come up with. thanks for your advice! :)

angelito on Aug 23 '07 at 5:37pm

Might want to consider the size of your company name in relation to the image, and how legible it will be when printed/used small....

spires on Aug 23 '07 at 5:40pm

I always retypeset for particular uses. In the case of really small, I would just increase the type as needed.

change it to just 'spires'
and make fewer points on the starburst, and make the inner radius smaller and the outer radius longer.
(just click with the star tool in illustrator onto the drawing area, the preferences will come up and you can change them there)

FireOfHeaven on Aug 27 '07 at 3:36pm

also, why the lighthouse? what is the significance? maybe sales pitch it to someone that you help find their ideas in the darkness or some crap.

maybe a light filament would be better. the lighthouse strikes me as a resort or something...maybe cause i lived on the east coast for most of my life...
