Daily SurgeLogo Design Contest

I'll thin #558 down a little bit and go with that as the base.

OK, I have to do a few things, but I wanted to show you the basics of the revised script design. I havent colored it etc, I always start out in black and white, so I know it works in one color. But this is what I'm working on, and before I go any further, perhaps your input, anything you'd like to see taken away, added, revised etc. #563 and #564

No worries! Thank you!

Let's work off of #563 - this has promise! We can focus on colors later. Let's nail the design first.

Version 1 - Put the volt within the half circles - one on the top and one on the bottom...maybe right of middle on the top and left of middle on the bottom. (instead of next to "Daily")

Version 2 - Put the volt back in the "S" in surge like the original version, except the line that connects the S to the volt should have more of a bend in it to match the curvature of the bend at the end of the swoosh and not touch the letter u. You can keep the half circle above and below

Version 3 - any other cool variations on the better booch design you like! Including different shapes, uses of the volt, colors, effects on the letters, etc.

#565 and #566 are changes 1 and 2. I'll play around with it and see how it turns out.

#567 is a colored, textured version. I'm very reluctant to add any more elements to the design as I feel it may become too busy.

I personally prefer the one with the surge underline, its less cluttered, cleaner, simpler.

THANKS! #566 - I didn't explain myself correctly. I wanted to have the volt actually BE a part of the half circle, not be within the half circle. Does that make sense?

Let's make #567 the same design style of #489 - I like the font in daily much better in #567 AND I like the simpler Surge underline. Remove the circles. Its a bit busy.

That might be close to a winner.

Almost forgot! I'd like like to see one version of the updated #567 where the fonts are not slanted up to the right but straight across. thanks again!

I've uploaded the same layout as #489 .. and a non-slanted one, and one with the circle but not slanted, and one where the surge is part of the circle.
I'll upload another where theres no distress and a faint drop shadow like #489

OK, #572 minus the distress, and with the faint drop shadow :) I think I got them all?

#569 - can you remove the dots and make it looks like #572? Also, please make the top of the bottom loop in the S a little thicker. It got pretty thinned out.

We've put this one in 1st place now!

#573 horizontal, without the distress, and the S fixed :)

Thanks! the S is still thin on #573. Any chance of making it thicker still?

#574 has been thickened a little more

Heres another with the side thickened more. If you notice the top half of the S, vertical lines are thicker than the horizontal ones, so its more in line with the top half :)

Hi Illumina,

I am ready to select the winner. Before I do, I want to confirm a few things with you:

EPS Format - I just want to make sure you will be sending a vector file. Either EPS or AI is fine, as long as it's a vector file it works for me.

You will be sending me the files for the winning logo #536 AND entry #541 (which we will use for the avatar)

P.S. (If you wanted to "surprise" me and throw in the vector file for entry #575 just bc you are awesome I won't complain. :-) it's actually my favorite but won't work as well for the website as #536. However I would love to use it for the websites future product line...

Thanks for everything! You were so patient and amazing. I appreciate everything you did for me during this competition! I look forward to hearing back from you.

Hi, yes, all of the source files are vector, eps files. I will upload the logo in the final files area, and then send additional files to your email if you wish, or upload the EPS files one by one to the final files. Thanks!

Awesome! I will select the winner, you can email additional files to jason.mattera@gmail.com

Thanks again!!!!

I sent an email with a couple of EPS files and a couple of questions regarding additional files, thanks!
