lol sun, if it wasnt u who said that ide be pissed at the mlg remark for w/e reason. a buddy of mine was in graphics in school, he threw it together cuz he thought he was being cool to copy sumthing when he should have realized that it was very... copyright lawsuite ish lol..
as for ur 20 min concept. the idea is there but i was lookin for more of an image logo as well as the name to be affiliated with the site. like the swoosh to nike, not that i expect to be as succesful but u see the swoosh and everyone knows what it is, and the text, teh slur/stroke/outer glow is alittle much id like a touch more detail in the letters themselves like how in my thumbnail image it has the faint color glow but u still get the detail.. HOWEVER the concept would look close to perfect if i were going for more of a cartoony look which im kinda liking the thought of..
edit: after looking at the image again.. i actually am turning the other way to the cartoony look, the scratch on the klaw is a great touch. i would like a darker shade of blue tho, not too much darker but darker nonetheless the more i look at it the more im thinking that there may be no need for an actual image logo affiliate however i may still wrestle with the idea..
conclusion- stick with the concept u have with a darker shade of blue (maybe change the black/grey shade a tad to help contrast with the blue)-not nescesary tho, see how the blue goes and u and i will talk a deal.
