Allegheny Financial ForensicsLogo Design Contest

Our company is located in the Allegheny Mountain Range. They are rolling hills with very rounded tops (not pointy like the Rocky Mountains). If you would like to incorporate some sort of background mountain image, that would be fine, but not required.

Thanks to everyone for your time!

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.

I would like to see this from somebody:

Check out logo #52 by quroin.
Similar word placement.
No magnifying glass.
Make a thumbprint in the background (like PSTO did in #31).
Make fingerprint more left justified than centered.
Make fingerprint lines out of tiny dollar signs.

Thank you all for your time and ideas! Much appreciated!

Dear CH,

Please be careful when asking designers to copy or mimic things from other entries. Designers are not allowed to copy unique concepts from other designers. (Even if they are unique only to your contest). The first to enter a "non common" idea has the exclusive right to it during the contest. Anyone who copies could face removal from the contest all together.

If you have any questions or further explanation, please contact the admin.

Thank you!

sorry...but keep mag glass centered, like #77 with dollar sign!

thanks!!!!
