New look? Do you guys like it?

[presidential_detail]

Ive been trying to come up with some new things to add to my business as well as my image lately, I came across one of Todds`(Esoteric) threads and really like what he did with his border. Ive also seen Todd Helme do something of this sort. Well I got bored today and this is what I came up with, any constructive criticism is welcomed.


I am still up in the air with the watermark, Im thinking it may be a little over the top..counting on you guys to help me out!

So you like the watermark then?

Looks good. I like the watermark. How about ghosting it though?

I tried ghosting, but I dont think it looks right..

What do you guys think about this one?

I made "Automotive Detailing" a bit more pronounced and instead of a white stripe i made it a very light grey.

One word of caution - the auto emblem here (and on the BMW shot) are copyrighted and you could be "asked" to remove it. Try cropping the image to eliminate it.

Place your logo over a completely dark section - see the right end in your image.

Ive never heard of an auto manufacturer making you hide the badging on their vehicles for taking a picture of it? Look at all the professional photographers, you never see any blurred badges. As for the logo in the dark section, I would have to make the image border way to large to make the logo fit properly and still be readible. I may eliminate the logo altogether though, atleast on forums.

Re: badging, while not common, some companies have "requested" removal from promotional materials - I just mentioned it because I know it has happened.

As to your logo, I wasn`t thinking about placing it in the border, more like moving it up and to the left.

Yeah, when it was ghosted it didnt look right. It looks much better when pronounced.

I like the watermark. It`s distinctive and classy and small enough that it does not detract from the photograph.
