Can anyone think of an example of a logo where the first letter is capitalised and drops below the baseline (rather than above)?
thanks.

Nope. Not a single one. You may be the first to ever attempt it. Good luck!

Maybe Christian kink dungeon?detritus - ^ it's the xian fish that does itGnash
- though the p/fish/wave thing could use accentuation...maybe a light or thinner SEIDON with more kerning space?uan
- I like the logo btw. nice mark and colors!uan
- adjust the "E" subtly to imply Trident spikesGnash

- need to make the P stroke same width as the rest of the type, thoughGnash
- they just want a "cap" PGnash
- if you extend the lower taper a bit longer than the side one, it suggests a P a little more clearlyGnash
- I think you need to shorten the horizontal taper as well, to enhance what Gnash is saying.monospaced
- this is a very nice compromise, in my opinion, to the odd way of requesting a simple "capital" Pmonospaced

- most of those aren't capital lettersmonospaced
- i know, but below baseline -- close enough?Gnash

how about replacing the 'D' the upside-down fish-P
That way you balance the descender and have the added bonus of an extra fish
