Apoxa

I Love YTtalk
Started a new channel and decided to make my own avatar. It's my profile picture right now but I'll also attach it.

That strobe light thing at the top doesn't really look good there. It looks very random and weird. I think it would look better under your username. Also, for the background, you should use two colours. Blue and black would suit best. If you're using photoshop, use the gradient tool. These are just my opinions so you don't HAVE to follow what I say XD overall, nice avatar :)

Thank you for the feedback! :)
I'll change those things as soon as I can and see what they look like.
 
Yeah, the flare is kind of weird right there. On the top left of the "A" would be good as that is where the "shiniest" part of the letter is. If you like the colour scheme you already have, I would add more light and dimension to the "Apoxa" as well to help it stand out. Make sure you use the same light angle that you used on the "A" so it will look consistent.

Otherwise, I think it looks pretty good.

Anyway, my two cents. Hope it helps.
 
I'm going to be kinda frank with you. The design looks rather bland. So many logos look like this, it's nothing special. If you are a designer, I recommend you learn how to use the line tool in illustrator to create your own letters. My logo is a combination of A, P and G to fit my channel name. I'd recommend you take a few letters from your name and do something similar. I'd go ahead and take away the name, if someone sees the avatar, the name is next to it. The flare is not needed, nor is it placed properly. If you use a flare, it should be on an edge, not in the middle of a shape.

Thank you. I appreciate the honest feedback. I wasn't quite sure as this was my second attempt at making an avatar.
