Thanks Doug, I wonder why I did not see that?
Lubed response is:
I think you are almost there, but your work lacks concept, balance, and a certain level of style...
Unlubed: This is marginal vinyl sign guy design work, after 6-9 years, you should be better than this.
Okay it's been 6 years since that post, and you have been doing it for a few years. I can only assume you are self taught (most sign people are by the way, nothing wrong with that)
I would expect to see way better logo design work after 6-9 years or learning the business. you either seem to have plateaued or maybe you have fallen into the "American Idol" syndrome
Hopefully you have watched "American Idol" at the beginning of the season, they parade very few talented people, and hundreds of marginal to really bad singers to embarrass themselves in front of millions of people. Why do they do that? Because well intended family and friends have encouraged them by telling them they are good.. or really good.
I don't know if this is you, but if this is you, you can learn principles of logo design and design better work, but you have to stop listening to these people and put the "design process" into your workflow. And then ask people who know the design process and know design principles to constructively comment on your work.
