Positioning of the "the"?

[emdotdee]

Right, i have a simple question.

I'm making a logo for someone but i'm having trouble deciding on the best position of the word "the" so i've thrown a couple of jpegs together to see what people think.

Where should the, "the" go?

1

2

3

4

5

#3....

I can't make up my mind between 1 and 3...DEFINITELY NOT 4!

Nice logos...

#4. All words should be treated with respect and equality.

Ok just kidding. #3 looks the best.

 

[BigPrince]

1, breaking the rules is always funner.

 

[tobefirst ⚽️]

Three...followed by one, and then none of the others.

 

[artalliance]

i throw in another vote for #3

Number four for me - or ditch the 'the' altogether

 

[Koodauw]

its between 1 & 3 for me as well. I like 1 just a little bit more.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I'd say 3.

1. The positioning is more unexpected, it's eyecatching and grabbed me immediately.

3 may look nice, but it doesn't do anything for me.

Time for a moderator to chime in...

At first glance, #1 appealed most to me. #3 is also very nice. I don't like #2 or #4 very much at all in comparison.

Time for a macrumors 601 to chime in... ;)

I prefer #1.

#2, IMO, is just that.

#3 is alright, but not as catchy as #1.

#4 is just two times #2.

But why are they all black?

"But why are they all black?"

Because they're mock ups.

I think 1 is winning, i shoulda made a poll.

Sorry, I was being flippant.

I think 1 is winning, i shoulda made a poll.

Unless there's a tie, I'm sure one is winning.

I believe you still can make a poll if you edit the OP.

three

#1... with a larger "The", large enough to make it to the dot on the i in Big.

 

[tutubibi]

It's between #1 and #3 for me. Probably #1.
