Personal Identity

[wez312]

This is a personal identity project I'm working on. I wanted the font to be strong yet simplistic, which is why I chose Bauhaus. My only fear with using that is it might be a little too overused.

The main word I was going to describe myself was 'leader'. So I got the idea of leaders in printing and that's where the three dots come in.

One of the things I'm not sure of is if it reads right without the dot on top of the 'i'.

Any and all criticism and critiquing is welcomed. Thanks!

Hmmm...At first I see those dots as being umlauts but then on a second look they seem to be exclamation marks.

I prefer the ones without the top dot on the i.

There are other fonts you can use instead of bauhaus. You have chosen bold which seems a bit too heavy. Have you tried the regular version?

Here are a list of fonts (http://www.identifont.com/list?3+ITC%20Bauhaus+14+N7+7+68L+7+LZQ+4+ILY+4+77J +4+6IO+4+A5L+4+3GX+4+23X+4+6CV+4+CFR+4+3V0+4+5Z4+4 +1MU+4+9A0+2+BOP+2+6DC+2+F3X+2+JPP+2+IFN+2+GHW+2+9 8T+2+2UY+2+MZ+2+9IJ+2+1MS+2+GN7+2+LOF+2+BQ5+1+6L4+ 1) that are similar to bauhaus (list is on the left side) that might strike your fancy.

I see them all and right away think you are trying to knock off the Wii logo...

ooo...good call

oops. wez, you saw a leader; I saw an ellipsis. :)

Seriously, I don't think most people will connect a dot leader with "Leader." That said, of the four I prefer the red dots with the dotless i.

Hmm.. what about grey with all red dots on the top. The i and L's look like people upside down.
