Logo v1.1
First off, see something here you like? No I’m not talking about my content or logo, but the font! Super nice, I know. Whether you rock any of the 50 Adobe applications or a word processor, you can download Roboto for free from Google Fonts. Clean and simple, it works.

This might be hard to believe, but I actually do have a name, and it’s not arc5ange1. It’s Tim (or Tay) Bates. That is important because my new logo blasts it across it.



As my classes in school are slowly turning over into jobs and projects for pay, I’ve struggled choosing and merging my two identities: Tay Bates, graphic designer and arc5ange1, top 1% in BF4 and Co-Founder of [GOLD] Squad.
If clout is anything, arc5ange1 is more known and recognizable, but when I hand a business card to someone, it’s more professional to hand them a real name than a gamertag. Not that you can’t, but just a thought I’ve been thinking of lately. The good news about this site is I can always buy a domain name like tbates.com and forward it to this page. I point arc5ange1.com to arc5ange1.wordpress.com right now, and pointing sites is simple, so 2 clicks won’t trip me up. But deciding what name I want to put in and on my logo has been on my mind these last 2 weeks.
So that is my beginning. More later, and be expecting minor changes as I continue exploring possibilities
