Adler Networks, Inc.Logo Design Contest

Entry #8

dear CH, some feedback on the different designs would be very helpful in letting us know what you like : )

I have to say I am very impressed on on the creativity of the designers.

Thank you all again for the entry, We will be making a decision this weekend,

Thank you again.

We decider to extend the contest so we can get the opportunity to get more involved with creating the logos.

this is our first contest so we did not know all the "rules". now hopefully we do.

We got a lot of great logos, but we could not see one that stood out. we are looking for a logo that conveys a strong, reputable, dependable message.

We prefer logo without a clip art, more being creative with the letters and the font. also want to see Blue and gray combo.

by the way after the logo we also would need from the same designer help with business card design, marketing documents as well as PSD design for the website.

Thanks again for everyone's input and hard work.

Thank you again for everyone's participation.

We are very happy with the new design approach that everyone has taken.

I will quote one very helpful for you post:

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.

Thank you very much in advance,
