Was never completely happy with my current logo/watermark, so I decided to play around in photoshop a bit. The creative juices were dribbling, at best.

Are any better than the current design? Which one is most appealing? Any suggestions on what could be improved? Or maybe I should just scrap them completely?

For me the first redesign appears suave and professional. I like it.

I like #2 - very upscale and professional looking with an understated simplicity.

Did some more tweaking so that in shows up better on both light and dark backgrounds. I think I'm liking this one much better.

I see no photo...???

But regardless, I'll keep using a watermark as a simple deterrent to thieves. I've had a few of my images pop-up in places they had no right to be in.

If you want a logo, looks like you need to hire a designer to design you one. All three are pretty bad.

If you just want something for a watermark, just use text.

He copied and pasted your photo minus the logo, it's easy to do,logo and watermarks are two different beasts.
I like the double M logo, perhaps a little smaller and less bold.


you're a great friend, but if Zombies chase us, I am tripping you.
