So today I spent some time to redo my logo. I'd appreciate any constructive criticism for it (I did it myself) and feedback on how it looks in relation to the rest of the site. I particularly wanted to update the name to a team and add my phone number.

Thanks in advance for taking time out of your day to take a look.

Ahhh yes. I learnt how to do this stuff in school. It's handy as hell.

No kidding. I love how you can play with the effects and save it to be applied to layers with a click+drag. I've been neglecting PS for a while now.

I'm going to try to redo my blog header this week too. Looking for something flashier there.

Steve - As soon as I saw it I recognized the roof / chimney from the logo of another REW member ..... I'm guessing you know who that is .... ?

You're talking about Bobs? The thing about this logo is that it is widely used. The house on the words. I was in photoshop playing with styles, and thought to myself that a house would look great there. I guess what I'm trying to say is, what about all the other logos with the roof tops on it?

The logos in real estate are a pain to be completely differentiated from any other logo created. In a nutshell, I did not use his site in any way to create this logo.

EDIT: More rooftops here: http://www.elance.com/p/design/logo-...ate/index.html

Mind you, I think Century 21 had that roof top thingy long before any of us did.
