    this is a logo i designed for my dad´s business, he sells and installs car glasses (windshields, windows, doors, etc.) i tried to make it so it resembles a car windshield.

    what do you think? i showed it to my design teacher and asked him how much money should i ask for it (but of course it´s free, it´s for my dad!) and he told me that if i wanted him to answer i had to tell him what each one of the dots mean, of course, i was lost... my dad liked it, but what do you think?

    I really like it, its simple and elegant. Although I think you or your dad may have a problem down the track with people not recognizing it for what it is (e.g. your design teacher). Since you have told everyone here what it is, we instantly recognize it as a windshield. Just my two cents :)

    Good luck and nice design

    I'm probably missing something, but isn't a windscreen bent the other way?

    [​IMG]

    If you look at it there, it bends like /__\, whereas your logo bends like \__/

    Just my thoughts though :)

    to be honest i dont see why you are using the dots, with logos often the simpler the better,, the way you have the dots spaced makes it appear a bit awkward, maybe try using smaller dots and consider onlinesupplies post.. i do like the font though and alot can be said for simple colour schemes,,,,,, just my 2 cents worth

    Good that your dad will not be worrying about making logos for
    his business..Are you offering it as free service to him? Cos he is your dad..
    But the logo is neatly made and it is almost perfect for the business

    Looks nice and clean, but I think the dots should be in a more regular pattern. The way they are now looks a bit awkward, like someone said.

    i'm thinking about the same thing as onlinesupplies when i see ur logo.
    but then it's a nice one. putting colors will be increase its creativity, i think.
