Changed the classic male Leo to a female one (subtract the mane.) Originally it was supposed to say L(lion)Argo but I decided to shorten it to something different. Aro.
When I think of Lion, I think of something regal, power, and high status. Then when i see the text, it feels off and they don't match. There's all the detail in the tail and fur of the lion but the letters are mismatched and smashed together. I don't know what you are trying to show with this, a little more info/insight on this please? With another look , it seems like the lion is trying to ride a bike but with no back tire. Just a quick thought on that.
Thanks for the comment and yes I agree with the " regal, power, and high status" but I can't seem to find or make the typeface in my mind. Also the letters aren't mismatched (they are literally the way they look except I rotated the R.) Also the A was supposed to be like stairs! =_= I failed miserbly with trying to get my message of trying to achieve something greater across... needs a lot more work.
I agree with Michelle, the icon looks good but the type face is the only thing that is throwing it off. have you tried the local websites that might help with the type? The lioness icon needs a bit of work. The belly looks like it was mangled and inconsistant. Almost there.
At first glance... I found the type appealing for it gave an overall look of an old map with decorative styles but after reading the previous comments, it could use some work as far as making the "A" look like stairs. Maybe make the extenders a little bolder? I really like the idea behind this one & am excited to see the final result.
