You don't have to get angry when someone critize your work. I understand his critic approach is vague, but thats good to help you see your mistakes and improve, but if you expect everyone to say nice stuffs about it, just because it took you probably 20hours to complete, then you might never improve at all, cos no matter how long you spend on the design the result is what matters. So be conscious of that.

I have had my fair share of critics and it has helped me improve so many people can attest to that.

BTW My opinion about your work is. I like the first one, but since its a logo, its too much stuffs coming together. I'm not impressed with the rest, most of the placed, the edges are rough, and you should try to make your designs less complex but unique as much as possible.

Thanks

While you are at it. You should check out Visual Metaphor. It will help you insightful and explainable designs. I know some people find my method silly, but when you study Advertising, Branding and so on, you need to have an idea of what Visual Metaphor is.

Enjoy

I am sorry but what does "visual metaphor" mean? How can I learn it? Interested!

First the word Metaphor means an object, activity, or idea that is used as a symbol of something else

Having an idea what it is, helps you create complex, simple creative work, that isn't just a design but comparison to something indirectly.

I usually advice most Graphic Artiste to read about it, designing isn't all about putting colors together, it has to communicate its purpose whether directly of indirectly.


Modern advertising relies heavily on visual metaphors. For example, in a magazine ad for the banking firm Morgan Stanley, a man is pictured bungee jumping off a cliff. Two words serve to explain this visual metaphor: a dotted line from the jumper's head points to the word "You"; another line from the end of the bungee cord points to "Us." The metaphorical message--of safety and security provided in times of risk--is conveyed through a single dramatic image.

below is the image of a visual metaphor

Creating a communicative designs gives you an edge over any other designers when looking for a job in the advertising industry.
