'Uneducated' and 'PCs' (ahem), but erm, saying you don't know how to design unwanted Band Logos is complete stupidity. Just like the way you all took reaction to me telling you why it's a bit old.

Hold up, schoolboy.
First, can you stop posting like that, it's really annoying. Maybe I designed the logo because I thought it could be better? All been explained more times than it needed to be. Thought you would have known that by now. I understand why it's relevant and why they're keeping it the way it is. I'm not trying to fight that it should be used. We're way past the logo stuff now, but I want you to get why it is old.
They said the logo was done about 7 years ago, right? It's quite basic and was done with the available knowledge of the time. Bevel and emboss used on a font, drop shadow or stroke on the outside. That's it, nothing too fancy, but trying it's best to replicate one of the AC/DC trademark styles. That's just an analysis of it, not a personal hit.
From an artistic point of view, it doesn't quite hit the mark as it's missing decent colouring to make it truly great. If no one notices the e, no one notices. I noticed tho so I changed it. Again, if it was made today, I guess whoever did it would have used an E.
Can you hard on heart say you like the current one better than mine? Give your reasons, I'd love to hear the difference. Some people just have no opinion on art.
You know, I bet you're 'guilty' of upgrading something that 'wasn't broken' but you got the newer thing anyways because it looked better or was more up-to-date. A TV, a mobile phone, a computer, a kettle, a set of mugs. You can have old. You can have better.
Your last sentence doesn't make sense. I haven't actually taken back what raid said. Jon seemed to have said something about 'over-sensitive baby' to someone, then Rick had his 'hacking the pace' to someone else, but where is the 'stand at the back and delete your account bits?

Your talking to thE wrong pErson about upgrading stuuf - i drivE around in a 1958 ford pop sir. No nEEd to upgradE - if it aint brokE dont fix it!!!
Its still rElEvant becausE its part of the band as has bEEn said.
DElEtE your account bit camE form somonE on that thrEad dElEting thEir account - nothing to do with your rEviEw.
Hand on hEart say I prEfEr thE old logo - its part of thE band and thE bands idEntity!!!! - do you not agrEE?

Yes, I agree the old, not quite polished logo represents the band.
Thanks, benny.

No I don't see the point you're trying to make. I've copied AC/DCs polished logo - for Live/Wire not the other way round. Stupid logic.

Uneducated and PC's meaning uneducated with a PC, thats me being honest, Im not really tuned into being a computer whizz, honesty costs nothing! |

I cant HARD on heart say that but I can HAND on heart! say the current one is better, the difference being, the current one is THE Live/Wire one, as in its theirs, the one we know and love, which is what this debate has rambled on about since its start!!

Yes, honesty is the best policy. Glad we agree on something. Spellings, ect: This is why it's hard to take anyone seriously, not to mention all the random uppercase lettering bennets is doing. |

Ok promisedland. Hehe, good typo! I'm a total hypocrite. But I'm glad you explained this. It's interesting to hear you say you prefer it as it's the one you love. After all, it's only a logo  It on yer t-shirts and tattoos. Would you think though, that if it were a fresh start, new band and you had to pick between the two you would still prefer that one and why? |
