Thanks,
The restraunt wanted the logo to burn away like that, not me.
I think it looks cool though.

I agree with both DJBlazer and tweetytunes, looks good though... love the part where it says something like, "Nice shooting fa**ots, you shot the wrong mountain!" LOL!

Also btw, have you been to the restaurant? seems pretty neat, might go past it on the way to the beach on the weekend ...

maybe the logo can move towards the viewer while it burns away slowly revealing the restaurant homepage to make it more dynamic, maybe even get rid off the "click here to enter text"but that's just personal taste .
It still looks great though user added image

Marlon: I havn't been to the restraunt yet. I got the job from the people making the website.

Mastone: The logo's done now. I actually wanted it to burn away like that but they wanted the click to enter part.

they specifically asked for it and didn't listen to you when you suggested something better?
are those people still doing this as a dayjob, or are they walking behind a garbagetruck(not that there's something wrong with that , to each his one)?
