haha very nice

At first, I wasn't sure about this one. But with your explanation and now that I see the detail it is truly brilliant.

I like where this is going, but I get scared when you say %22add more detail.%22%0D*%0D*Don't get too crazy - you are on to something good here.

Thanks Raja and Kevin.**I think the concept's ok but the execution is giving me a headache.

What about trying a version without gradients? Instead use solid color for shadows and highlights. I think it would really come together. Still...nice.

Dean%3B I agree, less is more.

Kevin%3B Yep, you hit the nail on the head! I tend to shy away from gradients.

Your on FIRE bro. Kick some but with this one. Yer not far from done.

Cheers Mike %3B-)

I really like the idea and I think that all the ellements work well, just a little tweeking but I like it.

Vell cool,well done.

Excellent concept!

added to favorites :)

excellent .. bravo...%0D*%0D*the logo itself explains the sole purpose. the saw like teeths resemble the raising curtain.%0D*%0D*great work.. keep it up

I always saw the 'raising curtain' as well - not an audience. Still loving this one, firebrand. Please post up a version without gradients. Humor me, won't you?!

Haha. I see what you mean. This one stalled a bit. *Ok d'Oc I'll give it a shot when I get time. :)

very nice concept! congrats...%0D*no gradients seems to fit better on your great logo.%0D*-- just an idea -- what about if you make the rays of light in different directions with lens efects over the red area....%0D*

Cheers for your suggestions, Webing. I intend to revisit this at some point.

Such a clever little fruit this one. :-)

Nice work (agree with the gradient issue). Is this the final version accepted by the client? Also, what font did you use?

Ummm, time for bad puns, I think. Very juicy concept, one I can really get teeth into.....! %3B)*I have to agree with taking the gradients out and the type probably needs more work. (Type is my own nemesis when it comes to logo design) The concept is sound though as the stage, curtain and lights form the watermelon perfectly. Its a few tweeks away from being done.

Thanks TT. I agree with you on the grads and font. Cheers.

Really fantastic concept. Didn't see curtains, was looking at an audience in my mind**Would making them less uniform (to look more like a silhouette of an audience) make it to busy? If so, curtains works well :D

Sweet. With a little fine tunin' (gradients, type) it would be supa-dupa sweet.

Gradients removed and type updated.

Nice, dude. I like the seeds as spot lights. Clever.

you know what would be great on this... gradients!

I'll throw you off a steep one in a minute.

Effing' hilarious!! HAHAH.*

coooool design! too good

Pretty nice concept, I'm really liking the idea behind it. Reminds me of this one a little too much though - http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/16726 - Never the less, well done.

@Edward: Thanks, I designed this about 3 years ago.

I def like it better with no gradients.. But I would keep the gradient version for a rainy day.. :)

i really like it ! good job !

Your gallery depresses me. *float and fav*

Haha. Been over a year since someone commented on this. Cheers, Chad.

Amazing Roy.

Awesome design. So simple and to the point, great job. Is this yours as well?**http://www.flickr.com/photos/chadmueller/2284401371/
