I voted for the Original. I think it is more professional and less "artsy". Of the "new" fonts, I like Option 1 the best.

I don't like option 3 because of the font itself and also the spacing is weird on the letters. It looks like "To tal Dy namic St udios" to me.

Ignore the spacing for now. ;) Kerning's a bitch on Motion, and I didn't want to spend the time adjusting each letter right now, until it's narrowed down. :)

Wait, when I said Option 1, I originally meant Original. *heh*

But I actually rather like Option 1 after looking at it.

I'm waffling on all but options 2 & 3, which I don't care for, I think. (And I see what Cherny sees with the spacing issue).

What the fonts say to me:
Original - classic, clean, simple, technological, power.
Option 1 - Modern, fun, comic books, playful, happy
Option 4 - Classic, regal, a little old-school, smooth, professional.

The more I look at 4, the less I care for it. I'm stuck between Original and #1 now.

I'm glad you said kerning, T, that was going to be my first note. It's hard to judge a font if kerning is off.

The "dy" of dynamic overlays a pretty light and busy background - it's harder to read in two and three and four. One to a lesser extent.

Also, I'd veer from making the TDS stand out so much. I know they're your initials, but it makes it less pleasing to the eye at a glance, particularly with the papyrus (and - unless it's Helvetica - if people can name the font, I wouldn't go with it.) It isn't such a contrast for font one, which is perhaps why I think it's the best of the lot.

I went with option 3, kerning will be fixed. I'd like to see the text bolded a bit more, rather than just the initial caps of each word. Is this Papyrus (it looks similar) and could use a bit more oomph

Ah, I forgot to say - bottom line: make eyes happy and comfortable.

And - there are, I believe, some tricks in Motion that make kerning easier. I'll talk to Tom tonight (he's at an interview right now.)

I think all but 4 are an improvement over the original in that they have more artistic flair. Option 1 has a bit of a "sloppy writing" look which is cool, but perhaps a bit less professional. More fun. For some reason, 2 make me think of Dawson's Creek. I like 3 best. A touch of asian influence, but a bit harder to read so may need to play with that a bit.

Well, I always liked the original. It's bold, it's easy to read, it's professional.

However, if you really want something more artsy, I liked Options 1 and 3. I was going to guess that 3 was Ringbearer, but obviously I was wrong about that, heh. I wouldn't recognize Papyrus if it walked up to me and introduced itself while wearing a sticker that said, "Hi my name is Papyrus".

Ok, I fixed the kerning on Option 1. Refresh your screens. ;)
