Sorry Brandon, I am not a photoshop pro and did this all the hard way. I don't have a project file. I can send you what I have, but it is exactly that. I could also send you the 360 degree logo if you want.

Actually, nevermind. My copy of photoshop, along with everything else, just kicked the bucket, I can't really do anything. When I get up and running again, I'll shoot you an email.

Oh, and Duda, the back designs should be symmetrical in both directions. So I don't think that yours will work. Try changing them up a bit, see what you can do to make them look symmetrical and nice.

There is so much chaos there that I absolutely hated the idea for the first few seconds, but the absolute chaos that is there creates something unique. I think we could play on this idea. I bet this could turn out cool in fans... I like where this is going.

That's pretty awesome. I agree with Lyle, all those lines are almost mesmerizing, but then it's got the little things that break the "trance", like the little dot in the corners. If we took nicolasco's design, and merged it with Lyle's(Well, leydenk's actually), that might look good. Either put the EM in the center where the red box is, have Lyle's border design on the outside, or, even better, both! I'll see if I can't whip that up in paint (STILL no Photoshop. Grrr.).

Oh, and welcome to the forums nicolasco. Great first post!

Those are very nice, I agree, the first one you posted looks the nicest. Possibly tweak the red to something a little darker. This back has some serious potential.

Definitely better with red. Not only does it look better, it follows the colour scheme ExoMagic already has.

And I totally understand the whole exams thing. My finals wiped me out so much, I slept for 15 hours yesterday. What's nice is that we're not on a deadline for this thing, so take as much time as you need.

Hello Nicolasco,

I enjoy your design. As Lyle said, it shocks you at first but then has some mesmerizing-style to it. We could possibly give this to some artists and have them expand on the basic concept.

Those are some great designs. It would be so easy to mark them and hard for some to notice the marks. Mark them with 'juice' and then you would have a cool deck.
