Our OFFICIAL DU Ukraine fund needs a logo. Here is the only logo submitted so far by DUer usonian. Should we keep it as is, or look for more?

1. Keep it. It's smashing!!

[herding cats]

3. I think is quite good.

I'd keep it as is. It fits the intention and speaks to us here. I even approve of the font, and I'm picky about such things having spent years building advertising.

4. Take out some of the blank yellow space above and below the text.

Try to equalize the blank yellow area on the top, bottom, left, and right.

6. Like this?

7. The font is too large now for the field. The text is overpowering.

It seems a bit cramped now. I think you took too much margin (blank space) away.

Put some more yellow margin back in on the top, bottom, left, and right of the text (or shrink the font).

I think you need some more blue margin for the flower, in particular, on the top.

This image is not sharp like the last one.

Overall, I think it's a great design.

8. I vote for Ukrainian artist Sasha Korban's latest street mural in Kyiv

[electric_blue68]

10. That mural is wonderful but Steve would have to get permission from the artist & photographer...

Or anyone else's visual work photo, or art or mixed.

11. Korban created the mural to help raise funds for Ukraine. Seems a perfect match

My international friends from all over the world, I appeal to you! Now is the time when I need your support more than ever. I’ve never asked you before, but now we really need your help. I’m raising money to provide the most necessary (food, clothing, medicine) for people who were injured or were forced to leave their homeless during the war in Ukraine. NEED HELP🙏

Thank you very much for your help!🙏 It’s very important for us now. P.S. I created this mural a few days ago in Kyiv, and at that time nearby were battles for the liberation of Bucha and Irpin took place.

9. I like this alot... just a touch of tweaking...

(I was a professional graphic designer)

Make the space from the bottom of the "Ukraine" letters the same as from the top of the "DU For" letters to where the blue starts.

Then make (if you can) the sunflower about 15% smaller, and make the blue background the same size in height as the yellow background after you adjust it.

Those are my suggestions.

13. Did you just volunteer?

14. What?!... No! I only have a smart phone to connect to WiFi. I don't even have access to...

my computer right now! Sorry.

[Omaha Steve]

21. We are in no rush

Could you get to it by say Wednesday?

OS

[electric_blue68]

22. Sigh, no... It could be over a month+ before I have access. Even then I can't access...

a graphics program on my computer because I don't have internet on it to get a free graphics program like Gimp.


I should explain - I did all my professional design AND Paste Ups & Mechanicals the old fashioned way:
with T-Squares, Triangles, and Letra Set back in the day.


I learned computer graphics, and art on other computers bc I didn't even have one back then.


Sorry, no can do!

16. You found some good stuff but Steve would have to get permission - unless these artists have waved..

..their rights, and offered them as public domain already. 🙂👍

23. Sunflower is Iconic

Same here. Keep it simple. Some of the other images are downright creepy.

[Demovictory9]
