To me it looks like something dark and sinister, the outstretched wing of a raven. I really, really don't like it. Sorry... | | | Lise Dufour France Local time: 21:40 Spanish to French + ... TOPIC STARTER Thank you so much! | Sep 4, 2017 |
Thank you all for your input! The logo is indeed a wing (of a condor, not a raven, as I'm specialised in the Andean world) that I intended to make look like a book. Some of your comments pointed out something I was already worried about: that it might look a bit sinister. I've just tried changing the color, using the same blue as in the rest of the website, only a bit darker. Let me know if you like it better now ... See more Thank you all for your input!

...I was right, it's a wing! Bingo. Difficult to see the relation with translation, though. Luck. | | | CafeTran Training (X) Netherlands Local time: 21:40

Your logo seems pretty nice. And what's more important, it's minimalistic and flat, and that's what's considered modern today. | | | Rachel Fell United Kingdom Local time: 20:40 French to English + ...
Yes, it looks better in blue, though not the colour of a condor's wing, and other changes seem to have improved it since I last looked some time ago. I don't think much of considering ravens as sinister though, or condors, vultures, etc. | | | Mario Chavez (X) Local time: 15:40 English to Spanish + ... Wing or flipped book pages? | Nov 26, 2017 |

If it is meant to be an outstretched wing, it looks clipped. Nothing sinister, just truncated. On the other hand, if it is meant to look like the flipped pages of a book, the wing would have to be stylized. There are dozens of good examples on the WWW done by professional logo designers. Who designed your logo? To be honest, it looks very amateurish. | | | Mervyn Henderson (X) Spain Local time: 21:40 Spanish to English + ... All I can see ... | Nov 27, 2017 |

You need to remove the trailing dot from the URL.

... doh! I see it now. But I must say I preferred the cat. And I don't like cats much, so if it worked for me, it'll work for others. Go for the cat, I'd say. Or just the cat's paws or something.
