Since my 'SF-approved' thing gets some people angry, I thought I would drop the SF moniker and change it to aj_del approved. So, here, igents is the prototype of the aj_del seal of sartorial splendour. I wanted to add the word sprezz as well but ran out of real estate. As always, comments and suggestions welcome

Ditch the bold serif (Times New Roman?), the "roped" circle (what's that, sailor?) and the other circle; too much going on there. Replace with sans-serif capitals; make sure they have some room to breath. Report back.

Better. Futura? Now try capitals, fat ones. The triple ring: why? Maybe ditch that ring altogether. Experiment with the space between the red stop sign and the letters around it: enough room to breathe, but close enough to form a unity.

^^ This is taking so much time that I might end up with a good looking seal which will defeat the whole purpose. I think I will stick to the original design.

The original design had just the right amount of ugliness

Hehe. Okay. Makes sense.
