Really not sure, depends on how it looks on the T-shirt layout. Changing the font is easily doing though. I would need feedback from those who put together the final product before I can really say.

I'm curious why you shortened some of the sixteen point star's points. That would imply that some of the teachings are more important than the others.

I also agree about the font being difficult to read. Even as large as it is on this screen. It'd be even more so on moving fabric. Makes my eyes want to cross lol.

I hadn't noticed that... but now you say it, it does look strange.

*Shugs* looks like a normal twinkling star that flickers in and out. Nothing in life is in perfect unison. Including the doctrines. We learn each one at our own pace, some more than others, and even then they have the potential to fade and glow brightly within our lives at different points when we need them most. Just like a star twinkling in and out.

Just my thoughts.

I took some artistic license, and never intended to imply teachings were less or greater than each other.

This looks great. Might I copy the image to use on my PC as a background and on my Clerical Journal? If I were to use it publicly I would give credit to your User name here ( by public I mean something like in FB post)

Sure thing, this is for the Temple, so you do not need to credit me if you want. I am giving this to the Temple.

Also here is another version (the default)





Edit Note: These are all vector designs and are held in vector files on my computer (Illustrator & SVG), ready to send to a representative of the Temple of the Jedi Order upon request.

I can't help but think that something still looks 'off' about the logo... Everything looks a bit too fat.. when you look at the original the 5 points are much slimmer, and the points of the middle star are much closer to the centre. I'm sure there is a logo file uploaded somewhere in the art forum with a base design. Not trying to be critical here...

I should note that I have a fix in the works and the main issue you may see is the 5 points which are not as long as they could be (reference top of forum logo). Also the default logo is small and Raster, which means it does not resize well, prompting me to remake it in vector which resizes without loss of information.

Edit: Art Posted

There are actually a number of threads which have vectorized versions already available.

And while I understand the intend behind "creative liscense", I would personally be hesitant to exercise such with a logo, as that logo is part of the branding identity of TOTJO and has rather specific meaning to each part, including if I remember correctly a rather precise and equal balance between use of white and black. I distinctively remember quite a few discussions already had about the altering of the logo.

Anyway, vectorized versions can be found in the link(s) below:

I believe there are a few others but those were the ones I remembered off the top of my head.

Edit: I'm not saying you can't take creative liscense, btw... just that if I were to take that to class, it would be declared a branding identity, which would mean preserve it in the original form. And the way my brain tends to work, I would take that quite literally. Hahaha. By all means, "creative liscense" your heart away.
