Dang, I didn't even notice that the same trick's pulled on the M until just now. I can understand the W from a design perspective, because it's depressingly typical of font designers ("W! Double-U! What if I made it a literal double U? I'M GONNA BE THE NEW GOUDY YOU GUYS") but it makes no goddamn sense at all on the M! Fix both of these they are awful.

God sees and knows everything, but at least he won't gossip about it.

It was a minute work, no actual working on it, maybe, just MAYBE when you put a bit time in it it'll look better, but a W and M with 4 stripe things does not work and doesn't look nice, I think that has been said by a lot of people by now.

Oh, and, your welcome.

Urgh, that looks terrible now.
The font I use is called Freshbot, and I did not make it. Whining about the font achieves nothing.

I kind of gathered you hadn't made the font, but there is absolutely no goddamn reason to be bound by its dumb little quirks. Design tips =/= whining, kid. I do this for a living, I know what I'm talking about.

What it hopefully achieves is you fixing it to look less stupid. Because that W and that M are stupid. This stuff is important! Admittedly I'm fussy about logo design but I would not join a forum with such atrocious typography, it indicates that those in charge are makers of questionable decisions. What achieves nothing is getting prickly about well-intended design advice to address a problem you already recognised but chose not to do anything about.
