Well I suppose it's an easy shot.
However, given all the comments/suggestions/advice about the new bar and all the ideas offered (great and small) surely there is a place for comment about the 'logo' which is after all an image that will become associated with the bar.
It seems that Jay & Co have put a lot of thought into all aspects of the bar, right down to the upholstery. Why not an equal amount re the logo ? If it's not that important (unlike the Xmas tree ) then why design one in the first place ?
The ? does look out of whack. No need to be a graphic artist to see that. In that 'other' place, a guy has actually come up with a modification to the original design which not only makes sense, but looks much better.

For a start the logo will not be changed - its already in process of trademark registration. Secondly, the logo was designed that way for a reason - everybody knows the question mark looks different to the guess bar name - that was intentional. As I said on the other forum, the designer had to be aware of what Guess Inc. has already trademarked and work around that. The choice of colours and plain background is deliberate to match the theme inside the bar.
Personally I think he has done a great job - its created a lot of interest and is probably I would guess already the most recognisable and memorable logo of any LB bar in Thailand. That in itself is a huge achievement for a bar that is just 3 weeks old.
Cheers
