    Default Opinion Of my new Logo for my website

    I am looking for true opinions of this Logo as I am not a artist and want to be sure you as artists think of it and it is not about the subject matter what I am looking for is opinions of whether or not you think text is proportional etc. I want this to look good on my website.

    GJ, the plant is too low in its container.
    The rounded corner box line is too thin.
    The font needs to be crisp, clean, upright and sans serif.
    If I have to reread the URL then you've lost.

    I tried to make the box a shallow plant pot and made the gapping wider to express freedom.
    I felt the need to ensure a measure of safety yet potential recklessness with the plant added as the i's tittle.
    I also tried to match the box line with to the same italicised statement.
    I tried to bring the leaves into supporting the URL (as you did).

    If you can make everything HTML spans, SVG and font then the scaling of the logo will remain crisp, small or large.

    Logos are always evocative so just ignore anything that rankles.

    In my opinion the text looks fine so if you are satisfied go for it.

    if it's a logo for a website only then a banner style is ok... but if you want to brand out to anything else you may wish to make it more compact... nothing wrong with the art, acorn's ppoints are well made

    That's interesting Acorn, I had been looking at something similar, more in the positioning of the text than anything.

    I would lose the rectangle and just keep the leaf. Simple is better. Maybe add a drop shadow to pop the leaf off the page. And maybe use a real leaf. More taste appeal.

    And try some other fonts. Maybe even try a typewriter font.

    Fun challenge. Here's my idea. The leaf vector I've used before on my website and sent to Joe to use as he wants.

    Unlike Gary I like the border as used by Joe, and find the one used by Acorn to be too like a dotted line. i.e. Joes version looks like the leaf has a white outline whilst Acorns is to far removed from the leaf outline in my opinion.

    I particularly like Acorns use of the leaf as a substitution of the leaf above the dot above the 'i'.

    I've used the font Cinzel Decrotive Black as I think it's a leaf-like looking font.

    The leaf 'viens' are a named colour and I think using almost a white fill springs the leaf forward.

    Perhaps I'd use a drop shadow as suggested by Gary but I'd do this with svgator rather than Xara's bitmap shadow.

    And if it were my site, I would do something like this.
