Message and that "fool" the eye somewhat.

First, - the photograph is sharper so right away it looks "better." Second, and more important, the angle of the Z in the first photograph lies in a more natural orientation, right side-up, the way you would normally read it. This makes the image subliminally more appealing

If you rotate the second design 45 degrees ccw, it starts to look a lot better. I did this already on my computer. So you must consider the angles from which you will most likely be viewing the design when it is installed in the car, and not just the angle it is presented in the photograph.

For those of you that already accounted for this in your "mind's eye," more power to you. If you still "like" number one better after doing so, then so be it.

I'll keep which design I feel is actually better to myself, since I've already tread deeply into "uber art dork elitist snob" territory, that seems not to sit too well on this site at times, lol.
