Thanks Shihara, this size is much better. I'll check with Penelope this evening and come straight back to you. 6 years ago shihara commented on #319 Withdrawn Bifocals 6 years ago shihara commented on #318 Withdrawn Varela 6 years ago shihara commented on #315 Withdrawn Nunito Semi Bold 6 years ago shihara commented on #317 Withdrawn quicksand medium 6 years ago shihara commented on #314 Withdrawn Nunito Bold 6 years ago shihara commented on #313 Archivo 6 years ago shihara commented on #312 Withdrawn quiksand bold 6 years ago shihara commented on #308 Withdrawn Archivo 6 years ago shihara commented on #306 Withdrawn Hi and Good Day Damien, Is this preview enough to see details?

How about the fonts Damien? 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #298 Withdrawn This logo and this yellow please. That's straight from Penelope! 6 years ago shihara commented on #297 Withdrawn Sure :) you can update me on the next changes once you show the designs to your wife. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #297 Withdrawn Thanks. I thought i'd like the rounded best and I do. I'll show Penelope tonight. 6 years ago shihara commented on #297 Withdrawn Hi, I have added 2 versions :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #297 Withdrawn Thanks Shihara, this is enough detail. Could you please do 2 alternatives for me please. 1. Rounded ends - full semi circles. 2. Square ends. Thank you. 6 years ago shihara commented on #296 Withdrawn #251 and #296 fonts are very clear and crisp to me Damien 6 years ago shihara commented on #283 Withdrawn yes 6 years ago shihara commented on #295 Withdrawn Cyntho 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #283 Withdrawn This font is too tight I think. 6 years ago shihara commented on #291 Withdrawn Ok will add that now :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #285 Withdrawn Yes, this is very good too. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #291 Withdrawn This is a really nice font. Definately on the short list. Small 'a' please. Penelope wants a full stop at the end of 'hear' please. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #292 Withdrawn We like the yellow in the second ranked entry - by Mr_Do. This is also good though. Mixed case is preferred, so that we can start with a small 'a' as well. 6 years ago shihara commented on #281 Withdrawn Wow that's wonderful :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #281 Withdrawn Penelope likes this yellow. 6 years ago shihara commented on #251 Withdrawn Hi Damien, I have added the first two fonts for your preview 6 years ago shihara commented on #291 Withdrawn Cyntho 6 years ago shihara commented on #290 Withdrawn Cyntho 6 years ago shihara commented on #289 Withdrawn Bifocal 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #275 Withdrawn Yes. I provided you a yellow that I've decided I don't like anymore :( San serif is what I mean. The font should be a sans serif font. 6 years ago shihara commented on #251 Withdrawn Wonderful list. i will go through it Damien 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #251 Withdrawn There are many good ones here; https://creativetacos.com/category/fonts This is a long list which i will try to shorten in the coming day or so. Quickly i have put a * against my favs. Bifocals Modern Sans Serif Font Cyntho Pro Sans Serif Typeface Syabil Demo Sans Serif Font Neutral Grotesk Typeface *Creative Casual Sans Serif Colour Font Airfly Sans Serif Font Dream Attack Grotesk Font * Aleppo Sans Serif Typeface Pangram Sans Serif Font Somber Sans Serif Typeface Perkin Sans Serif Font Stay Wanderer Sans Serif Jaclynn * Treyton Demo Sans Serif Font * Adriell Sans Serif Demo Font * Tabner Sans Serif Demo Font Geometrica Sans Font Evergreen Sans Serif Font Chester Sans Serif Deron Sans Serif font Hurst Sans Serif Aariel Sans Serif Zisel Sans Serif font * Viro sans serif humanist typeface Anaan Sans Serif 6 years ago shihara commented on #251 Withdrawn #288 this is Cajito :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #251 Withdrawn Have you tried Cajito extra light ? 6 years ago shihara commented on #285 Withdrawn Not too tight, a bit balanced font, what do you think? 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #270 Withdrawn Too light, and too round. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #274 Withdrawn Too tight. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #263 Withdrawn Good font. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #266 Withdrawn This is also a good font but probably not quite right. If we don't get the font and colour right today, its not a big deal. We can work on it over teh next few days. 6 years ago shihara commented on #271 Withdrawn Ok thats noted too :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #271 Withdrawn I think it is unlikely we'll go with a feminine font like this Shihara. Better it be gender neutral and maximum readable. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #272 Withdrawn This font is promising but not quite right. Its too crowded and square but very nice and clean. The warmer yellows you have picked are better. 6 years ago shihara commented on #283 Withdrawn warmer yellow 6 years ago shihara commented on #284 Withdrawn softer yellow 6 years ago shihara commented on #280 Withdrawn This yellow is something i picked personally 6 years ago shihara commented on #281 Withdrawn This yellow is something i picked personally 6 years ago shihara commented on #282 Withdrawn This yellow is something i picked personally 6 years ago shihara commented on #275 Withdrawn Hi, I used the yellows you provided me :) and this font is adobe. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #275 Withdrawn Surprisingly these are too yellow. Not warm enough. Also I don't think I like the serifs (that what they're called?) 6 years ago shihara commented on #265 Withdrawn RGB 255 233 22 HEX FFE916 CMYK 0 2 97 0 6 years ago shihara commented on #264 Withdrawn RGB 246 229 0 HEXL F6E500 CMYK 0 0 100 0 6 years ago shihara commented on #263 Withdrawn Yellow U 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #251 Withdrawn Hi Shihara, This is it! We love this latest change you have made adding the two lines. It captures everything we wanted with the 'sound wave' and professionalism but also suggests communication between 2 people, which we love! Could you please update the yellow to Pantone yellow U ( CMYK 0, 0, 93, 0), Pantone process yellow U (0, 0, 100, 0), Pantone 803 U (0, 2, 97, 0,). We like the slogan in all caps and this font but can we please play with the 'a Better Ear' font? We like the font in 243 but feel the spacing is a little tight. We like your spacing better. Also Mr_Do has good spacing in some of his options. Lots of room to breath. Thanks for your work. Damien 6 years ago shihara commented on #250 Withdrawn Thanks and that's nice :) Yes i am available for print materials and websites too :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #250 Withdrawn Hi Shihara, thanks. My wife is home shortly. We'll review your new submissions together. This will probably be the last time we'll review before deadline. Thanks for your help. BTW if you win, would you be available for other work, such as design for print or website? 6 years ago shihara commented on #250 Withdrawn I have added the changes 6 years ago shihara commented on #250 Withdrawn Sure 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #250 Withdrawn Hey Shihara, Yeah i like this. Thanks for sharing your creative idea. That is very welcome. What about more lines even? i l |O| l i But descending in size as they move away? 6 years ago shihara commented on #250 Withdrawn Hi, Not sure how you feel on the above new graphic that i uploaded. the two waves out side the circle is also can be considered as two ears or listening or active status. 6 years ago shihara commented on #237 Withdrawn Thank You :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #237 Withdrawn Very nice font. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #129 Withdrawn Hi Shihara, this is still the best one I think. I like the composition and I like your logo. Could we have you change the font for something clean and light and well spaced. The priority should be on readability and therefore lets use Mixed Case with a small a "a Better Ear" please. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #210 Withdrawn Thanks Shihara. 6 years ago shihara commented on #210 Withdrawn Out of all the fonts i feel this font has a good balance. Weather its low case or upper case. good choice Damien 6 years ago shihara commented on #147 Withdrawn No problem :) you can also sort by submission time as well. I will upload you a all caps version soon 6 years ago shihara commented on #145 Withdrawn Haha it happens 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #145 Withdrawn Ha ha! I can no longer see any difference between this and 129. Looked at too many logo's. Nevermind. I like both. 6 years ago shihara commented on #152 Withdrawn Hi Damien, Great, ok i will follow these font instructions 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #152 Withdrawn Please try something like; Dale Harris I hate comic sans Jollygood sans Canoodle The cats whiskers mi negra harimau dua smiling cat I found these here... https://www.myfonts.com/search/%20%20Dale%20Harris%20%20I%20Hate%20Comic%20Sans/fonts 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #152 Withdrawn Yes, more space is better. I think its better because its easier to read. Our customers will be old and some will have poor eyesight. This font is ok for now, its close, but it won't be the final one i think. The feel is right but the lower case letter get a bit blobby when small. I'll post some other font ideas along the same lines if you like. Damien 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #147 Withdrawn Hi Shihar, I'm sorry if my comments are unorganised. Its my first logotournament so have just realised i can follow our comment activity in the side bar. :P What does soulmarker look like in all caps? 6 years ago shihara commented on #157 Withdrawn Hi, Sorry for late reply i was away. This font doesn't have lower cases. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #157 Withdrawn Thank you. the wave is beginning to look like diagonal lines. If the curves were less tight it might look more like a wave. What do you think of this font? Did you try it in mixed case? 6 years ago shihara commented on #157 Withdrawn Mathlete Font 6 years ago shihara commented on #153 Withdrawn More Space Between Words with dots in between 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #143 Withdrawn Maybe some variations on this theme? Like changing the line around a bit. I think it still needs to just bump the edges of the circle. 6 years ago shihara commented on #152 Withdrawn More Space Between Words 6 years ago shihara commented on #151 Withdrawn More Space Between Words 6 years ago shihara commented on #143 Withdrawn Yes can do that :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #143 Withdrawn Not bad. We like the negative space. Can we try a font like soulmarker or mathlete please? 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #142 Withdrawn Not quite. Can you fill in the white circle and have the wave within that. The wave will need to have a heavier line. 6 years ago shihara commented on #139 Withdrawn Yes i can :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #139 Withdrawn this works better than the caps. Can you put more space between the words please? 6 years ago shihara commented on #147 Withdrawn Soul Marker Font 6 years ago shihara commented on #129 Withdrawn #145 the circle is a little bit smaller than this #129. i made it not too small or not too big 6 years ago shihara commented on #130 Withdrawn Yes i can :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #130 Withdrawn Could you do this with SoulMarker font please Shihara. 6 years ago shihara commented on #142 Withdrawn Hi, This i saw on your doodle. is this correct? 6 years ago shihara commented on #129 Withdrawn #139 6 years ago shihara commented on #129 Withdrawn Hi, Yes i made the changes for you already :) #138 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #129 Withdrawn Actually this is growing on us. Can you please do this one and the mixed case at the same height as the circle please. THank you Shihara - we appreciate your hard work. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #129 Withdrawn Hmm. Doesn't really work does it. Either caps or lower case... Can you try the font the same height as the logo. ANy ideas? P.s. i just added a little doodle to the attachements. same sort of spacing as this circle but with a wave. Also with the wave breaking out of the circle so the circle just a gestalt. 6 years ago shihara commented on #128 Withdrawn I used the sine wave as the background. omitting the circle 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #127 Withdrawn Could you please play around with 'handkerchief' font? This is nice. Lets see if you can make it work with the different font. Maybe it will suggest some other composition. 6 years ago shihara commented on #126 Withdrawn This logo is based on "we listen so you can hear" and a Sine Wave in center. So basically a person or group of people listening. then sine wave in center. i feel this has some meaning to your business, but sir you know better :) 6 years ago shihara commented on #59 Withdrawn Hi Damien, I will do the changes as soon as possible. and i saw the PDF and i updated few designs. also i will create few more concepts as well :) Thanks a lot Damien, Shihara 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #59 Withdrawn Please also check the new pdf i have uploaded if you haven't already done so. I'm getting further from my original idea and there are some more flexible examples there. I like your work and want you to have the best chance. Damien 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #59 Withdrawn Yes. 58 yellow is better. Shihara, can you put this logo beside the name? Like this... O a Better Ear I'm increasingly interested in a logo that can be used with or without the name. 6 years ago shihara commented on #106 Withdrawn Your new brief update logo 6 years ago shihara commented on #74 Withdrawn This wave is from #67 6 years ago shihara commented on #76 Withdrawn This wave is from #67 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #78 Withdrawn Wave and circle, good. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #74 Withdrawn I like the wave in this too. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #76 Withdrawn I like the wave in this one. 6 years ago shihara commented on #67 Withdrawn Yes :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #67 Withdrawn I think this sine wave is better. Now can we address the font please? 6 years ago shihara commented on #67 Withdrawn a little less 6 years ago shihara commented on #66 Withdrawn less waves 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #65 Withdrawn yes I agree - this isn't working. When this is made very small it won't read as a wave at all, just a blur. Try less waves. and experiment with the waves line weight please. 6 years ago shihara commented on #59 Withdrawn ok 58 yellow is better right? 6 years ago shihara commented on #65 Withdrawn this is the sine wave i just did. what can we change here? can i try a sine wave with less waves? may be few waves 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #59 Withdrawn 58 looks more saturated. More saturated please. 6 years ago shihara commented on #58 Withdrawn i can make the E to look more E than the C even i noticed that it looked like a C. I can try few font options on this version 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #58 Withdrawn Actually this yellow looks more saturated. More saturated is better. 6 years ago shihara commented on #59 Withdrawn I will add few font options for you in this version 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #59 Withdrawn Shihara, is there a different font but similar? The E reads like a C. Also whilst we like it, its a bit too elegant. It should be more humble and less stuffy. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #58 Withdrawn Shihara, is there a different font but similar? The E reads like a C. Also whilst we like it, its a bit too elegant. It should be more humble and less stuffy. 6 years ago shihara commented on #59 Withdrawn Great so i will work on this yellow :) 6 years ago shihara commented on #61 Withdrawn Sure noted i will work on that now 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #59 Withdrawn This yellow is nice. 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #61 Withdrawn Thanks. Your yellows are looking a little greenish. Can you please sample my yellow? How about a slighly neater circle. Mine looks very messy against your lovely font. The balance between the sine wave and font is critical if this option of them overlapping is going to work. Can you please work on this? We like the verticle bars you did. Can you do this with a white sine wave moving from small to large to small "mMm". Please reference the wave I have attached from the AM album cover. 6 years ago shihara commented on #61 Withdrawn Hi Damien, The circle i have used is your own drawing from the contest attachment. i will create another one of my own as well :) i was trying to make you part of the design :) 6 years ago shihara commented on #46 Withdrawn Hi Damien, Do you want to replace the sine wave as per my other design? 6 years ago shihara commented on #34 Withdrawn #56 and #57 :) 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #46 Withdrawn Please drop the slogan. Crisp and neat edge to the circle and the sine wave please shihara. Thanks, Damien 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #34 Withdrawn Can we have an option with the sine wave (see reference attached) filling a similar amount of the circle please? 6 years ago A Better Ear commented on #34 Withdrawn We like this. The font is nice and the over feel. Can you do the yellow less orangy and remove the slogan? Could we have an option all in lower case please. Thanks Shihara. 6 years ago shihara commented on #37 Withdrawn Will print well on Printing materials, memorable, social media friendly, and can be identified easily from a distance. 6 years ago shihara commented on #36 Withdrawn This logo is right year of a human as well as letter b and e integrated 6 years ago
