Hi,

for my taste the new logo looks somewhat smudgy, because there is too much shadow and too little contrast between the green "Gandalf" and the yellow background. Also, a logo should have that specific unique feel, that helps to remember it visually. In this respect, your first logo was better.

Look at the box below, where it says "First board dedicated..", it is much more readable than your logo, even though font size is smaller!. See what I mean?

Also, why do you use two different font sizes within one logo?

I would simply put in the upper Box the word "Gandalf", using a larger font and more readable contrast and shading. Then in the box below, I would put in "Open Directories Forum".

Martin

IMO, the green is a welcome change of pace from the usuall blue sites that I see. I'm so sick of blue. :shock: Everything up top needs some work though.
