I like your business name.

But then again, I do business as the Nuclear Muffin Test Kitchen. :)

The logo doesn't convey dynamic, with the black and blue- and it looks kind of boxy, even with the film "melting".

Still better than most anything I'd draw, though.

I manage a website for a friend of mine, the domain is 17 letters long, so we have info@, jobs@, webmaster@ and their personal emails are firstname@ (its a very small company).

info@ is a great email address to have on a business card. If you want to give people your personal address (even though you manage both boxes) then you'll have the option of doing that while maintaining a more public info box if you expand.

At least that is our logic.

Instead of "Dream-see-doo" which sounds like a square dance move (to me), could you use "Dream, Visualise, Create" ?

How about "Fold, Spindle, Mutilate?"

CP - excellent feedback! Thank you.

Maybe I should incorporate my gears, even though my website will be changing (same theme, but Flash-based for an optimized and interactive environment).

And.... that could work in with a tag line too, especially with the word "think", which can be associated with gears....

Hmmm, and gears also represent motion or dynamics.....

I think you just might be onto something. :)

I had already planned to make a splash page that shows the two sides of the business - "For General Services, Click Here" and on the right side "For Weddings and Special Event Services, Click Here." The splash page is going to be a composite of the two sites, one with gears, one with flowers... with those two images morphing into each other in the center. It's hard to explain, but it's been in my head for the last few months.

Glad I could help! I totally admire your courage in putting yourself out here. :snap:

I agree with Kevy, 2 fonts, or you can go one font with two styles (using bold, italics, all caps, a different font size, or even combos of things). There should be some contrast.

I figure she'd want to get the design element set and then we can talk fonts.

Well, thanks to the feedback, I've finally set up my "info@" email address. It was relatively painless. D'oh! :)

As for the other stuff, that will commence over the next couple weeks, now that I have a bit of breathing room.

Without commenting on the design aspect, I'm going to throw my .02 in about some other elements.

Prior to heading to Chicago, I went through my business card collection, and couldn't remember some people, but I remembered the really outstanding cards. The most outstanding - those that had a great feel to it, or something different. I have one that's a square that I tacked up on my board. One I got this year was smooth and about twice as thick as your normal business card, which overcame the poor cut (the trim line was showing...) to become the only business card I kept (I also liked his business idea).

I like the steampunk-iness of your website, and using those dark colors could be to your advantage if you do it well.
