    Sinjx,

    I really can not find anything I would want to fix here. I think you are spot on, If there is anything to maybe to be picky about is the color scheme. With this logo dealing with HOPE if you went with color meanings you might try using Green tones. However I personally like the palette you are using. If you are interested in color meanings here is a Great link with the meanings of color. Color Wheel Pro: Color Meaning

    I would leave it be. I love it just the way it is.

    I'd like to see it without the guy. I know he's representing the Y but I can't see it. It looks more like a guy simply creating a space between the N and C. might be the color perhaps. Maybe he'd work better the same color as the font.
    But I think i'd look best w/ just the hill and cross. But I'll wait to see what it looks like w/ the guy a darker color.

    I agree with coy, I would try the cross being the same color as metro and the guy as a "y" the same color as "hope nyc". Although, there may be some trouble corresponding this layout into a one color format (such as b/w)

    Overlapping in a logo is not generally a good practice, if you could tie in the elements of the cross, the praising man, and the titles into an environment not so layered, I think you may be on to a good start.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,
    Chris

    You could try extending the brush representing the hill to the edges of METRO.
    Then using smaller type fit HOPE NYC in between the 2 sides of the hill would get rid of the overlapping that way.
    Cool concept though like the use of those brushes.

    I agree, i think with just the cross it looks good, the man might be too much, but it looks very good =)

    Well, I think the line going behind the O in HOPE is a little annoying. Maybe change it so it goes between two letters, like H and O or O and P.

    ok i like the initial design the only thing i would suggest is to make the man the same color as the bottom text. also, the top text needs to be a little darker as it tends to fade into the background and isnt noticeable so much.

    Coy is right, the man is VERY hard to be read as "Y". Changing the colour might improve a little, but you could also try making the "Y" look like a human, rather than making a human look like an "Y"

    I second Coy's opinion, the man isn't very good at representing the Y. Maybe you can change the man's size or make a better Y presenting form... And the lowest text should be a bit darker I think, because it can be hard to read from distance...

    'Diverse people; same place' - needs to be a darker colour for legability. I dont get the 'cross' or 'T'?? if this logo is all about hope then this creates confusing conotations of death in my eyes?
