I didn't quite get what you meant by the description either, but that does look nice. It isn't keeping as much of the original logo's A, but I agree it is a good looking P.

Re: Inspired by the old Asahi Optical logo (Darren Addy)
Thanks Darren! I've taken your suggestion and added it to the pile, along with David's and Steve's: http://www.jacelio.com/special/PDML-icon-idea-03.png I included a version that took a notch out of the angular P to make it look less like the original A (A2). David, the backwards P just ends up looking like a 9 (C2). Steve, extending the descender makes it look like a giant e (A3). Ann, like I said, this was just for fun. It was a brainstorm while I was working on something else. No one asked for a new logo, and I'm not about to attempt a coup. I just thought it'd be a fun exercise.

I have a problem with seeing distored letters and reading cursive not sure what part of my brain is defective in that regard, but If you had not told me you were doing PDML I'm not sure I could have figued it out. a bit scary, actually.
