Could you run that by me again?


BTW, the sphere was 1.75 in radius, now it's 1.8. Not much of a change.

Version 4 that is. Please keep numbering the versions clearly. That makes it
easier for people to say what they think is better and worse compared to
other versions... :-)

That is good I think.

I have compared this version and version 2 closely and I think you should
move the pupil up again and make it smaller like it was in version 2. The
centering doesn't look nice.

> including making the end a little smaller

The thin end of the edge is slightly thinner in this version.
It makes the logo unbalanced I think.
I think it was better in version 2.

> making the yellow stand out more in the gradient

I think it is too bright. It makes the logo unbalanced.
Try something in between this version and version 2.

I don't mind that.

> Oh, I also changed the highlights a smidgen (not really noticeable)

The phong highlight is tighter in this version.
I liked it better in version 2. But now I'm nit-picking!

Also:

The eye is slightly wider (or more closed) in this version. I think that is
good.

And now something general:

You made several different versions this time. 2 different black and white
versions, a 2D color version and a 3D color version. I think that is good.
We could say that the only thing that has to be the same in all the versions
is the outline. That way we could make versions with different colors too.
One version could have the colored gradient, while another could have 2
colors only, like in version 1. What do you think of this?

Greetings,

Rune

OK, OK.

Excellent.

Thinking it over, I must agree. The previous assymetry added a little
character.


>The thin end of the edge is slightly thinner in this version.

Unbalanced? Could it be that you see it like that because you saw version 2?
I'll try a value in between both, to see how that works.

Alright... <mumble> this is what I get for listening to Chris Huff...
<grumble>


>I don't mind that.

Excellent.

The only difference is the eye, and the camera location. Maybe that's what
you're thinking about.

>good.

No it isn't. The outer shape hasn't changed at all. I think you're being
fooled by the camera or colors, or something...

Excellent.

That's the idea.

I'm hip with that. I like it with the blue colors, myself. :)

I think the thin end it too... what's it called? slight? slender? delicate?
frail? flimsy? One of the words here ought to be the right... Also, it might
vanish in small resolutions.

Or maybe I'm the one who is wrong and you'll be mumbling over me...!

Hmm, actually it's probably the darker color that makes the highlight
tighter. Never mind.

The edge has changed from version 2 to this version.
However, after having had a closer look I can see that you're right that it
hasn't been made wider.

You're probably right.

Hmm, judging from the response of others, maybe you shouldn't listen to 
me any more. I seem to be the only person who likes my version of the 
logo better. :-(

Don't feel bad. Besides, I don't see why you can't make your own custom
version of the logo to suit yourself. That way we could all be happy. You
also seem to like to see individual spheres and have it upside down. That's
fine, if that's what you like. I don't mind, just keep it to yourself. :)

LOL  :)

Very nice, I like this logo very much. Much better than v3. I took some
(small) liberties with your work.

(1) gamma "corrected" eyeflatcolor.png - I found the original one to be too
bright in comparison with the eye3dcolor;

(2) & (3) made "grey" versions - vs. "black" versions;

(4) made an 32x32pi 3d colour reduction;

(5) made a (naturally ugly) 3d black version.


The only thing I would try is to darken the yellow on the left side
slightly. It is a tad too bright to my taste this time. But it is already
much better than the old, more brownish, one.


Povingly,


Philippe

This will be fixed in the next version.
