Congrats to Cursal for putting together a great logo and merchandise area for Dnforum on Cafe Press.

This will be posted later today, but here is a preview.

Not trying to undermine your selection, Adam, but the large "COM" in Arial Rounded competes with the sans-serif "DNF". They should not be of equal size and color contrast alone is not enough; the use of inverse is a good starting point but as you can see, it visually leaves a large space at the top of the "COM", while "DNF" does not breathe within the constraints of the box (too tight). I like the placement of the dot, but it should be larger for effect. The byline needs to be wider, to the edges of the logo above it, preferably in a non-rounded font. That's my creative criticism from looking at the merchandise.

sorry, but i have to say it:

domainers should keep doing domaining
and designers should design

otherwise you get amateur results
as we can see now

(the only exception is acro)

Nothing wrong with good constructive criticism, we have plenty of time to make adjustments.

Thanks!
