Aeponyx IncLogo Design Contest

We do not like the black background.
We like your "O"

thanks for the feedback, #28 and #29 trying new bolder font and disconnected AE.
Let me know if you have any other suggestions

Hello
We like item 29. Could you try two things?
1) Instead of small circles, can you use hexagons
2) Can you also try to change the Y by a Lambda?
Cheers

3) If you look at our initial logo, there were a kind of color rainbow going out of it
Keep up the good work

hexagons are a great idea :) I was working in fewer circles to make it more simple, now with the hexagons works really better

on #29 I cut the X to make it look like like lambda, but in #46 I replaced the Y as you requested

Il you look at the original logo (on our website), there were a subtile play with the Lambda. In fact, the Y was projecting a shadow making a Lambda.

Entry 66: Could you try the following:
1) Take the Y from Entry 46 but mirror it so the bottom leg of the Y point to the left instead of to the right
\/
/
2) Create a shadow lambda starting from the of the Y using some of the colors you used in the O

Hello

Congratulation for ending first.

However, we wouldl ike to request a few changes to the entry 117.
1) Reduce the size of the « Star ». Make it look like a globe. Maybe less dots so it really looks like a sphere.
2) Keep the X made of a Lambda and a small line
3) Lower the Y by half the height. Use the style the Y in entry 119. The dark one.
4) For the A, try 2 things: One version with a A, the other one with a Uppercase Lambda (you can look at other designs, a few designers have replaced the A by a Uppercase Lambda)

5) We would like to have two logos: one with white background and another one with black background

Thank you for submitting the above.

Thank you :)

#128 through #132 incorporating the changes step by step so you can compare each of them

Reduced number of points of the star and its size but I am not sure it makes the sphere more evident.

#132 increased space betweeen letters

Hello. 129 is the closest to it.
However, we still have 2 things we want to consider.
1) Can you try to make a shadow effect on the Y so it looks like a Lambda. We made a sketch on a file, but I do not know how to attach a file. Use a color for the shadow.
2) on a second sketch, from that lambda, use a ray of light going from the end ot the shadow toward the sphere

Hi,
I am not sure I understand what you need. Maybe the sketch can help, you can use Imageshack.com to upload and then send me the link. That would really help, thanks

#133 is the best solution I found for what you want to see, mirroring the start so it bends to the right side.
Personally, I feel like there is too much happening in the logo, it should be simpler like 66 or 117.

Hello, me again
We are getting there.
Can you do #129 with a black background?

With the black background, I think all letters shall remain white. Therefore, please make 134 with the lambda (X) all white.

For #129, can you try one version with the Y using the same color-style than the lambda?
And please do a #129 with all letters black.

Finally, is there any effect possible than pure black for the letters? Like a little 3D effect?

#135 through #138

Entry 138, keep the y blue and make the lambda portion of the X also blue

#139

#140 same coloring as #139 but without the shiny effect, so you can compare

Hello

Today, we had an internal meeting to revise the logo. We still need a few change

First, start with Entry 129. Change the YX to be like Entry 66.

Then all the work to be done is on the O.

We would like the O to look more like a Sphere. You improve but still need a little twist to make it look like a ball. In the future, we will take the O alone and overlap it on a globe map for marketing....
But when you play with the O, make sure people can read Aeponyx. One of the idea was to have a thin line going through the center of all the dots doing the cerner line. Try with and without...
Make sure the colors dots are not over the letters

Thank you for providing a few sketches improving the spheric aspect of the O and to make sure people can read and feel it is a O.


But also, we must make sure people can easily read AEPONYX: we are affraid of people thinking that those are AEP a picture and NYX. So can you tril to have a thin

I like the chioce of having text as in #66, so all the attention goes to the 'star'.

#141 through #144 using the actual geometric base of the star. Also added a line cutting the center hexagones to make the O. Do you think it will be necessary some black for it?

Hello
Yes, we will be looking in having 2 logos. One with white background and same on a black background.
#144, can you try to have the sphere a little smaller, but keep the star about the same size.
We like the logo on the top.

#145 smaller sphere

Hi.

Can you take 142 and try to run a black thin circle outside of the first circle of hexagones so that the letter O could be emphasized a little more?

Also, could you try to thicken a little on 142 the white circle across the hexagones. Goal is to make sure the word read well

Tx

#146 added black to the center of the star and #147 thickened the circle

Great.
With 146, we see the O and we feel the spheric effect.
Can you do another one (sorry, I know we made many), from 146, remove the outter yellow circle and yello shadow. With the star, we feel the sphere effect.

#148 as requested, #149 reversed

No problem, I am glad you found the logo you like, that's the idea and what I am here for.

Congratulation

We would like to receive the files for the logo 148 and 149.
Also, we would like to get the 145, the sphere alone.

Many thanks for your sketches and patience with us.

I hope we will remain in contact for the future. You can connect with me on Linked In.
