Which banner is better?

[jdab]

These are the banners for LevelUnlocked. The one with shadow is the original one, but I think it would look better without shadow etc.

Which do you prefer?

No shadow is better.
Also what's the white line next to the padlock? It doesn't make sense....

First, the bottom one doesn't look good at all with the white.

To the right or left?

My thoughts too.

Personally I much prefer the top one, it looks much sharper and more professional IMO.

Thanks, if you wanna see them on the site, it's been changed to the one without the shadow on the blog, but the one on the forum still has the original.

Here they are:
New logo - without shadow
Old logo - with shadow

Top one... 🙂

I think the first one is better.

First one all the way, I personally do not like the bottom one, as someone already stated the white line makes no since.

 

[Ghost]

Unless the white line is an L. And the lock is an"unlocked" lock.
But that's not too clear or nice looking- no offense.

I also like the first one the best 🙂

 

[jdab]

First one it is 🙂

Awesome Choice. The second one is nice, but doesn't control that professional image that the first one does. 🙂

The first one is a lot better than the second. I like the reflection effect on the second one, but the white just ruins it.

I have to agree with majority and go with the first one.
