Man I laughed hard at that. This reminds me of more than one of the CL fauxtogs around here.

I like Braineack's logo better but change the font

Of course there is always the "third way", hire a graphic designer to design your logo.

Maybe when I start making real money.

Cause he was in photoshop. It's hella easy in illustrator.

I commented in your other thread about the logo you put on the photos. Just look at runnah's suggestions and see the difference between his and your fonts f.e.
And why did you chose the white background?

I wanted it to "stand out" a bit. But not be excessive.

But when a viewer have a white box in the lower left corner of a sunset (beautiful toned down colors) f.e. all their eyes will see is the white box in the lower left corner.
Eyes are first seeing the brightest part of a photograph and the area with the most contrast. You have both in this logo.
You don't want the logo to be the main part of your photograph.

Should I have a different colored background for it? What do you think?

- no background at all
- pay attention to fonts, google a bit
- pay attention to the tones of colors in it
- imagine how would your logo look on a photograph that's hanging on someone's wall

thanks, I'd do the font differently, more like this:

and then when watermarking photographs I'd only use the logo.

I love that logo and spent 2 hours trying to recreate it and failed... Any insight on how you made it? I don't really like the words, and I'd rather have just the logo as a watermark.

Cheers!
