My first serious attempt for an official logo for myself.

The point was something simple, modern, without bells and whistles but still appealing, something that can be recognized

Feedback?

Looks great, really simple more like flat design. : )

Although the S has some jagged edges :P

Yeah that became visible when coloring it, it was white first.

I'll work it away later :p

You could use color overlay in blending options if you use photoshop, then there wouldn't be coloring problems :P

That's exactly what I used actually but the letters are not done with a font but by hand and shapes, and my 'S' was a little bit off on the edges making it like this after shades and coloring. I'll fix it up ^soon ^^

Design looks really clean! However I'm not so keen on the colour. It may just be a personal thing, but the colour seems very de-saturated and somewhat... 'murky'? not sure. My graphics abilities are very limited!!!

Add a bevel or some sort of text border around the letters.

Looks good! Like in a way it's simple and pretty at the same time (you know, like not too detailed in a way it overwhelms your eyes.. ehe)

Dank, incoming designer rank ;)

That would kinda ruin the flat design I'm fairly sure

Sure, and why not add an outer glow, pattern, drop shadow and a gradient overlay while we're at it.

Pls no... Don't ruin the flat design style.

 

@OP, seems like you stretched the font quite a bit. I suggest using vectors in Illustrator or Photoshop when creating flat logos, this will also keep the quality intact when you want to scale stuff and avoid a lot of sloppy edges.

It's not a font, it's shapes and freehanded

Oh right, well I still recommend vectoring it next time.

Looks neat, would make it smaller overall though.
