Help turning this into a logo, and improve the interlocking if you have a better idea

can anyone turn this into a usable Logo format, and possibly improve on the Interlocking design I am not very creative and I think it can be better

Not nearly exact... but hows this?

I like the concept, how do I get it in some kind of a file, maybe just thinner orange, thiker navy.... awesome start

You can just RIGHT CLICK on it and select SAVE AS. Its in PNG format.

version 2.

Making the purple 'thicker' is going to be hard, as i didnt alter the base Font much at all.

ya maybe slightly thicker Orange is needed, is there a way to slightly shorten the K ? so that the image is squared

Are you looking for an exact match, or just something conceptually similiar? If you want exact, you'll have to find the font that matches and let me know what it is, as I can't find a match.

If I shorten the K, it will still not be squared... as the only way to make them squared would be to level the top of the K with the top of the S and the bottom with the bottom. And that would look like crap.

Do you mean you want the height of the K to be equal to the width of the S? That would mean 'squishing' the S and extending it horizontally?

Anyways, these are probably the best I can do. I dunno where the lack of symmetry comes from... maybe its the fonts im trying to us, or that K and S just dont hug well. I seem to end up with a fat, squat S or a too skinny K. If you could find the exact Font you want, perhaps I can do better.

I hope at least one of these is good enough...

ya the one on the right is pretty dang close , but the S got fat lol

hey, pretty good start, but can u make it so the ratio of thick to thin is the square root of pi? squared? thanx
