AcanLordLogo Design Contest

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: https://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.

Upon seeing a couple designs I feel that I would like to see an actual organic Acanlord coral in the design. I also think that using royal colors would be great as well as for purple font. Here is a link with a acanlord, but please stay creative without making it look exactly like the picture. Also, Acans have a bit of a flute shape at the bass. Kind of like a flower but subtle. Thanks for all your hard work!

Desingers,

Thank you so much for all your awesome submissions! I could never imagine creating such awesome logos in the short amount of time that you all have.

We keep getting closer to what I'm looking for. However, I think it's crucial for my prospective clients to be able to identify the logo as being a logo with a coral in it. Especially considering this is what I'm selling, corals. I'm alright with abstract color combinations, organic shapes, abstract shapes,etc. The idea is to be able to identify the object as a coral namely an acanthastrea or commonly known as an Acan. I don't want to give so much detail that you are unable to express your artistic ability. I imagine an acan with several heads in various colors looking at it from a 45 degree angle. Like in the link above, same angle, same head count, same head size, one or two colors per head if not with solid color and maybe even a shiny glair or edge on each head. Thanks again!

Hi everyone!

Doing a great job! lots of awesome logo's coming in. I would like to see what everyone could do along the lines of "Rich" think jewelry. Can I see more concepts with glimmer and shine. Adding shadows in low light area and shine or reflection on highlighted areas? Thanks everyone! hope your having fun!

Please message me for more clarity if needed.
