    Metal \m/ With or without flames?

    Crit me hard, crit me good,
    My question you understood.
    Brutalize my anatomy
    Then I'll be very happy!
    But the awnser I desire
    Is "with or without the fire?"

    The fire gives it more energy, while also bringing out the text more than the other.

    I think with fire is better, but it just looks like a red and orange glow right now, not fire. Maybe give it a more dynamic fire-shape to the border of the glow?
    At least Icarus tried!

    yea so this is how my conclusion came about
    i decided to join the rest of the crowd
    the flames make the logo more effective
    you could even make the skulls a bit reflective
    and put some orange/red light from the fire
    i hope i answered your question desire

    You understood my little question
    And replied with a suggestion
    Thank you, thank you, thank you all!
    Thank you big and thank you small..
    Fire, I think, makes it scarry
    And it's kinda necesary
    Without it textures look much better
    But it really makes it "METAL"!

    Thank you all again, I say
    More crits? Fire away!

    Pretty sweet, but I have just one (off topic) question...

    Is your name a NOFX or The Grim reference?

    The fire is more interesting, definitely adds an energetic mood to it, but it overshadows the more important text. I say thin the surrounding fire a bit and put a blazing outline around the text to make it stand out more than any part of the logo.
