Industry

Color Preferences
Initially any color is fine. Red was Terry’s favorite color, so we’ve used it before in the past. The logo colors should be simple (or look good converted into black and white) as it will be used on t-shirts. Terry also had a thing for Hawaiian shirts.
Our Ideas & Additional Information
We have one idea in mind that would be the outline of our father's image, which could include his beard, glasses, and big smile. Pictures of our dad can be seen at http://tqfoundation.com/apps/photos/album?albumid=4830762
I have a similar example of Harry Caray’s logo (http://www.halloffamememorabilia.com/images/products/FS-CCHCPmed.jpg).
Other ideas/suggestions would include the acronym of our group that we use, TQF. We do not currently have a tagline, but are open to ideas.

DonGato, I like yours the best at this point. I think we'd rather not have the circle around the picture. And could the name be less prominent?

I don't really like the candle idea from ChecMark, doesn't seem as upbeat as we're looking for.

Drakkar...I do like the image, but not the font.

Thank you guys, please keep them coming and let us know if you have any questions!

I like the top three, but would love to see some other ideas. Maybe something similar to this http://www.halloffamememorabilia.com/images/products/FS-CCHCPmed.jpg
rather than something taken from a photo. Or something even completely different. His image doesn't necessarily HAVE to be in the logo, it was just an idea we had.
Great job so far!

your Contest is already in JUDGING mode and I thought it was helpful for you to have some info most Contest Holders don´t know:

How to Rank and Thank Designers: When it comes time for final rankings, designers appreciate when you choose the top three CONCEPTS (as opposed to variations of the same design) for the gold, silver and bronze awards. If you want to rank two different concepts by the same designer in the top three, that's fine.
Also, rank as many entries as possible, because designers get points added to their overall site standing for each blue ribbon they get.

This is how points are distributed:

1st place - 50 points
2nd place - 20 points
3rd place - 10 points
4-6th place - 5 points
7-10 place - 3 points

After that, each ranked entry gets one point for the designer. Nobody will be insulted by being ranked last, the points are still good! So if you pull some entries out of the "Not Interested" group and give them a rank, the designer gets some benefit from entering your contest.

Hope that's helpful, lots of contest holders don't realize this and most are glad to know. It's a good way to thank designers who don't win the contest prize, but who worked very hard to offer you lots of options to choose from for a great logo.

I hope this info was helpful.
Good Luck!!

Thanks for picking my logo. I had a lot of fun working on this project.

I'm out of town til tomorrow--but I'll send you your files as soon as I get in the door. If you'd like to see any changes, let me know.
