Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses:

~~ You, the Client, are very important! Your active participation is the single greatest factor influencing this contest. Active participation by you, the Client, helps you get the logo design you want!
~~ What's active participation? It's updating the brief with more information for Designers to work with as the contest progresses, providing feedback to Designers on their entries when they're submitted, and ranking designs at least once a day.
~~ When you provide feedback to Designers, you increase the chances of getting the logo you want. More feedback = better results!
~~ Leave private feedback by clicking on a design. Feedback will be made public upon contest completion.
~~ Rank designs at least once each day -- this will encourage Designers to submit more entries!
~~ Ranking prevents your contest from going idle! Active contests attract more Designers.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed. Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: http://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Please note: if you're asking for a design that will require several hours to create, to attract Designers willing to invest that amount of time the prize should be at least $400-$500. All "Character" style logos fall into this category.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested." We'd like to know what you don't want so we can give you the design you do want.
~~ The first phase of the contest is the "Open" phase, and everyone can submit during that time.
~~ After your contest's initial "Open" phase closes, it will enter the "Top 5" phase; only the top 5 ranked Designers will be able to submit revisions at that time.
~~ The "Top 5" Designers are the first 5 Designers in a contest, not the first 5 designs.
~~ When "Top 5" ends, the "Judging" phase begins. The Designer of the 1st place design will be the only Designer who can submit revisions at that time.

To All,
these are great so far. With what we have we are very confident in everyones abilities. We are open to Let YOU create something with no restrictions on color, logo, size....anything you want to do.

Also, you don't have to have "Spin, Burn, Live". or even if you like some other words, use them.....
anything you want!

First I want to thank everyone for participating, this was our first time using LogoTournament and it was unbelievable. It actually has been so good that it has given us many more ideas from my group doing this. So.....

We are thinking of the name UrbanSpin (Urban Spin) also. If you would like to use your same designs and include the name "Urban" rather than "Pure" it may help us with our thoughts.

Also if you would like to do something completely different, we are open to any and ALL ideas,

Great Job everybody! We are beginning to lean towards "Urban". Lets keep the same "theme" that we have going with Name, Rider, Phrase below.....
Lets see some different background colors other than just black. Lets make these colors in the letters jump out also. We have no parameters here so make what YOU think would look best. We feel very good with the 5 we have so this is your chance to really blow us away. Thanks again.

Congrats to the top 5. Here is what we are thinking since we have somewhat changed course. We would like to see an outline of a building or even a city. Also we like to see some curvature in the letters urban spin. We are thinking that maybe the logo with letters can be in a circle. I apologize for not know the proper term.
