/gd/, I come in peace. I didn't see a general for logos in general so fuck it, here's my thread. After nothin on /ic/, I'm gonna post my sloppy attempt at a logo here for a fantasy concept of mine, stylized as "nOdream", as in the phrase "this is no dream". I thought it was mysterious and loaded with both positive and negative feelings, plus juxtaposing strong and conflicting words like "no" and "dream" together. Additionally, I believe it to be an anchor of sorts, a reminder for when even the most bizarre set pieces are explored or the most beautiful or terrible things happen.
The big "O" is representative of the world, while the warped lettering was meant to make it whimsical. I could play around with a few more styles for the typography for sure. The other reason for the letters being warped was to create a symbol of sorts that could be easily recognizable even to non-English speakers. Thoughts?
Originally, I was calling this "Key to the Kingdom", but after getting gummed up with lore and trying to make sense of what kingdoms go where and then having to reconcile set pieces I wanted with climates and so on, I got to a breaking point where I said fuck it and recommitted myself to focusing on individuals even as big things happen around them. I don't think I'll even give kingdoms names anymore, but write an indecipherable hash in place. With the importance of "kingdoms" reduced, I needed a new title, something more personal and unusual. This is what I landed on.

Best FICTIONAL sports team logos?

It's ugly. It's the ugliest shit you could possibly make.
99% of homophobia is due to this abomination. If the gay flag were cool, if the colors actually complemented each other, if it had some cool lesbian animal symbolism or something like that people would LOVE the gays.
I try to tell this to people but they're in denial

what's the name of this design? how does one achieve the composition and the colors in illustrator? is it even in illustrator since it's made in early 1900s.

Might be a dumb question, but how do you go about designing something like this?
I assume it's through Illustrator but do you manipulate the texts in the way you want the font to be or do you get the font already made before hand? I've seen accounts give out "free fonts", so I'm a little confused.

I made some trash.
please rate it 1-10

Then you should know that at the current year of 2023 graphic design is pretty much dead. I was a professional gd for almost 10 years working in both studios and on my own and I can't really find a job anymore. It's not even because of AI to be honest, its because of how the industry works and how bad the corporate environment has become.
There's still web design, 3D and VFX/motion design(primarily 3D too) and if you want something similar or easy to transition then chose one of those but I'm not sure for how long they will be relevant themselves because of the AI which is basically a final nail in the coffin of gd. Of course there are and will be exceptions and maybe you will get lucky to find some obscure local business that needs you, but if you are young and looking for a career in the future you should stop consider becoming a graphic designer. This profession is dead.

How do I cope knowing that the best logo ever is ruined by a retarded ideology?
Nothing comes even close to the swastika. It makes me depressed to the point of giving up logos completely.
