Our Ideas & Additional Information
As our name is The Dog Knowledge, we have thought that we might possibly like a version of Rodin's "The Thinker" but The Thinker would be a dog. However we do NOT want a cartoon look. Also any dog used should not have pointed ears but be a little more lab looking.

I just re-read my creative brief. Again, let me stress that we do NOT want anything that looks like a cartoon. Also, again, let me stress that we are willing to pay more if we receive a really great design. If a designer is looking for a version of Rodin's "Thinker" they can find it on-line in many different versions. Of course the challenge will be making the "Thinker" look like a dog without looking silly. However, we are totally open to any creative designs.
The logo we select will be very visible in Charlotte as the building we are hoping to lease has a huge sign that is visible from most of downtown Charlotte. Only because the building has a grandfather's clause due to the age of the building is this sign allowable. That's why we need a really eye-popping logo.

Dear Designers:
I have to tell you all that I love elements of everyone's design. Additionally, I think this service is awesome and will use it and recommend it.
I have chosen design #2 as my favorite at this point only because I like the graphic nature of the design. There is a website www.tyler2construction.com that features a dog in their logo. I like the graphics in their logo. Something along this line is more of what I am thinking. As for Entry #2, I would like to see a different font, possibly white with a black outline. The dog is maybe just a little too graphic but still on the right track. In other words I am looking for a symbol rather than a specific dog that really looks exactly like a dog. Or possibly a silhouette. Also, all dogs should have soft ears and NOT pointed ears. The red color I mentioned will probably be the background color so would like to see the design and lettering in white, black and beige.
Again, to all of you, thank you for your wonderful entries. I will look forward to additional revisions. Does anyone need more time. I put the timing down to 5 days but maybe could extend the time period. It 's just that I am very anxious to get this logo finished as we have so many project in the works and I need my business cards and start working on signage.

Everyone please look at www.tyler2construction.com for a look that we would like to see.
We think our signage will have a deep red background so would love to see the logo in white trimmed out in black with some deep khaki beige (almost chocolate but not quite) and possibly a splash of lime green.
