They both look awful. Not only does PeeJaay need a good marketing guy for his contests, but it looks like he needs to spend at least five bucks on a graphic designer.

I think he does a lot of the design himself, at least from what I had read he designed the logos for the Drac and Frank boxes which in the article it said he spent a good bit of time perfecting them which if you look at the type/logo portion of the boxes, they are very simple. I dunno, maybe he takes a lot of pride in his design skills but I think he should stick to blending cigars and leave the graphic design to a designer. Hell, I'll do his creative for free smokes on the good ol fashioned barter system.

Don't get me wrong, I think he blends some tasty smokes, but visually the "tramp stamp" thing rings true for me. Both of them look "Glyph-ish" ala Prince, like someone said.
I am probably not his "envisioned target demographic," nor do I need to be. A logo for a company can be a powerful thing, and if that is what he wants to do? Who the hell am I? Just a dude that smokes cigars I can afford. I know nothing.

Maybe this should be the theme song when you access his website.
