Artist's Comments


Concept:

I have taken inspiration from the best features of the 2 logos dA is currently using. I really like the 'geeky', futuristic style of the new one, but it is quite static, and the multiple strokes aren't particularly easy on the eyes.
I've tried to stick to a geometric form without producing something that is a little too 'sci-fi'. As well as rounding the shape, the swooshes give that little bit of extra movement and flow. In effect, it combines the precision of a digital theme with subtle 'artistic' touches.
One thing I haven't liked in dA's logos is the poor legibility of the A. I concentrated on making sure the design is legible, but not simple enough to make it boring or unoriginal.

The typography has been made with a customized serif font, and its design to follow the sleek, modern theme. the gap between the d and t also creates an ideal space for the mark to be placed, as shown on the mockup.

As you can see, a lot of thought and time has been put into this design. I hope you like it as much as I do ;)

Note: Updated the text and mockup.

I think that the in-site design part of the picture points out some mistakes. Like the pixelization of the logo with text. However, this might also just be a little issue with a printscreen or a resized image. Nothing too big to worry about.
The image you put as a preview, now, THAT is some sleek looking design. I can seriously see that thing on the front page without anyone minding it. So all in all the design isn't bad, I think the with-text version just didn't look as good because of a resized image. Overall, very nice design! :D

I could handle that for sure! I prefer the "thin, wide, filled d" version the best.
