currently the banner using pictures of case back right?

using it to show pictures for no commercial reasons is alright. however the moment you use it for 'branding' or commercial purpose, this is when the owner of the copyright and patent can use legal means.

i will pm you separately on this.

I like the new logo/banner!
The '+65' is a clever idea. NICE!

But it's not showing up on every page.

The page probably needs to be refreshed... older logo could be cached by your browser.

I just realised if you have a bigger screen resolution than 1024, meaning any 17" monitor and above, the logo wraps around... lol.

More tweaking again....

im not very well versed in seiko watches.

however, compared to the previous logo, i think the previous one is better.

a logo is ideal especially it is a symbolic for a seiko.

if there is a need to use a dial, then it should be one that is iconic or grail.

i find that the logo is 'complicated' the word seiko is seen twice. i dont like the +65.

human's eyes usually scan from top to bottom, left to right. with contrasting colors of red and white, it captures the attention of users.

so you will need to decide what is the focus of the logo that needs to capture user's attention. is it the seiko club? is it +65? or both? what is the purpose the seiko dial then?

a logo should be something simple, iconic that when people see it, they recognize it. just like for linux, the mascot is tux/penguin. for apple is the apple logo, etc.

i apologize if the comments come across as negative. just trying to help.

TS. if it is ok, can i contact you via phone or something? if yes, drop me a pm your contact number.

No problem.

I wanted a nice banner at the back, so I kept thinking about designing a banner instead of a logo.

From the various inputs, I think the banner as a background should be ok and it can be rotated monthly.

But it's a little distracting with the words over it. Need to adjust the opacity further and tweak the wordings.

Thanks for the offer to help, will PM you if I need any help and advise :)
