    I personally like my own work, now i need a comment, critics from professionals so that I can improve my creativity. Please check the logo i created lately for my friend's tech company. No, he didnt approved it because of some personal problem though he liked it too.

    Thanks in advance :)

    It just needs to be polished. It looks a little 'dull' ...I can't think of another way to say it.

    Thank you all for appreciating and suggestions, I am sorry for some reason I didnt added the company name in it. But its "e" and the name of the company starts from it. Its related to IT and web development.

    The work is nice but I won't get it for différent reason.

    First of all, the e look like a "Forbiden access button". You know, the kind of Red circle with a single line in the middle.
    Second : the black color means dark ... shadow ... misunderstanding. Would that be the first impression I would give ?
    Third and last ... Your E really look like the Internet Explorer button. I don't stand it, using Fire Fox ^^.

    So, this graphic is nice and pretty, but the meaning of this drawing make a repulsive approach.

    Kéké
    PS : sorry but my english spelling is not very good. I can't make a lot of nuances using that foreign tongue. Please trust me : i like your draw a little bit ^^

    kéké,
    Thanks a lot for your kind and really helpful comments, I can say that just for this reason i started this thread. I agree with you and my mistakes as I am a complete noob and just use my imagination and thought to make it beautiful, thats all. I never took care of meanings and resemblance if any.
    I promise to myself that I will improve :)
    Thanks again.

    try other color schemes, maybe make the "e" less angled so it doesn't look like a no smoking sign. Maybe ditch the black BG all together. just my 2 cents. :)

    I like the design but its kinda lacking a corporate look and finish. also i agree with keke's observations. why dont you add lil but of 3d depth to the e or change its angle, also definetely the black and other color combination is lacking proper IT company corporate look. but still its a very good effort... you should keep it up.

    I like the colours but i feel the 'e' gets abit lost in the same colour background, maybe making the background slightly darker or something may make it clearer?

    Also there is a slight overlap of the 'e' over the background on the right hand side...is that suppose to be there?

    Yes a little more polish and it is good to go. Looks sleek and crisp! maybe fade the colors around and inside the 'e' but I think it is great.

    Fix your bevel / emboss looking effect you got going on. It looks incomplete. Try using a darker color with sharper edges and not so spread. Also, think about how the light is hitting this, so with that in mind, you are missing some crucial shadows.

    maybe polish it up a bit, the edges of the "e" don't synchronize nicely with the e at the back. colors are too light. a glassy, embossed look might help. give it a shot, but otherwise just cool.

    Thanks a lot for all tips, advices and comments. I thought that i will post the design again but after giving many try I am not able to make it more better than this, may be I am not good in choosing color. I will be more thankful if somebody here can specify the color to be select this time. I will come up shortly with something better than this.

    I think it's good. It needs to be polished, yes. And also, the edges look a bit dull, maybe try embossing it a little bit. The color scheme is nice as well.

    Don't stress too much, it's just a start ;)

    overall, i like it.

    but, i got problem with the green color and the reflection :)
    the reflection look not so realistic.

    just for spicy, put some glossy effect on the logo and a bit
    enhancement on reflection.

    Though this is not my limit of creativity but due to very busy schedule I couldn't try it anything more nicer than this. I tried changing color but nothing worked well.
