thanks

Is it just me or does the circle in the middle seem to be off centre vertically? The bottom looks smaller than the top...

NeVeR

yes it is a little.. But apart from that how does it look ?

i adjusted the logo so the the inner circle is right in the middle, If it looks off its just the colours playing tricks on you

The curving "Poker Tables Ireland" text looks weird... did you non-uniform scale it after assigning it to the curve?

I'd think about simplifying the logo a bit too... make sure you're happy with how it'll look a half or a quater of that size.

The capital I in Ireland looks very similar to the lower case L in the same word - might make it tricky for someone to pick up on the word at first glance.

The typeface is the only problem i see. It is, perhaps a bit bold, given that it will be scaled down to webpage logo size. When scaled down it might become illegible. maybe a simpler, skinnier less 'chubby/bubbly' font might fit better.
incidently, font size 10pt with larger word/line spacings is proven to be more legible than say 12pt with normal spacings. This principle could be applied here, and is often used in advertising.

Other than that though it looks real good, like the poker chip thing. good luck with the business!

Hi, it seems to be too large and has too much text.
How large is the logo going to be on the webpage?

Slightly off the logo topic, but on your website in relation to the poker chips the images being used should be resized to the size required in your webpage. They look distorted at the minute and dont display the chips well.

Donketstyle and Rollo have a point, how is that logo going to look at say at third of it's current size ?

Besides that i'd say a great effort so far with loads of potential

IMO there's too much going on in the logo

i don't like the text going around in the cirlce.. Its annoying to read. Its hard to focus on exactly what the logo is trying to get through to the person who views it.

needs work dude. i like the poker table effect you're going for, but.....

it would not optimise well at all, if you scaled it down 25% the text would be unreadable, it would just be a bloby mess.

i'd say, loose the curved text, and bring it outside the circle, so it's readable.

needs to be more simple.

text "poker tables ireland" is too difficult to read. If you ever have to scale this down for letterhead or a website it will be illegible.

You could try using the centre bit on its own and then placing "poker tables Ireland" to the left or right outside the circle.

Might work better for website and letterhead. from my experience, gradient colours are more difficult to print and possibly more costly, could be wrong though.
