    Hello all,

    I am starting a design business "2Win". It's my name "Thu Nguyen" in Vietnamese.
    I'm new to Illustrator and I just couldn't make my curves straight enough. Also, how do you add handles to an anchor point if there's none? Can you guys give me some tips and comments on my logo? It's not finished yet. I think I will add "Win" some where later. Here's what I have so far. Thanks in advance. :)

    It's pretty simple and the shape is not that great... Why don't you use some kind of font and the customize it a bit?

    You can type 2, create oulines and then duplicate it. Move it to the right and play with intersection and substraction. An so on.

    I personally find easier Corel for vectorizing. The bezier curves and the handles of the anchor points are much more easier to interact with.

    Hello, thank you both for the feedback. I still love my 2!! I made it less skinny and made the curves more smooth.
    Is it any better? I also added some things. Please tell me what you think!! =]

    For websites and such I would just use a black background. The reflection isn't that important. For the background I used a radial gradient with %5 noise. =]

    Today I registered my domain.
    Please like my page and support me if you want. Hehe.

    I think this is really good design but single 2 is not innovative. Try make some unique and innovative design.
