Big Picture IdeaLogo Design Contest

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses:

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage participation.
~~ Rank a variety of designs to get a variety of entries.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed! Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: https://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Leave private feedback by clicking on a design. Feedback will be made public upon contest completion.
~~ When you provide feedback to designers, you increase the chances of getting the logo you want. More feedback = better results!
~~ 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.
~~ Designers earn points for designs ranked 1st - 10th. We like to earn points.
~~ 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.

Thanks you so very much for all the interesting designs we have received so far. Please keep a few things in mind, that we outlined in the brief:

1. The logo should fit onto a "postage stamp" - and what we mean by that is that it should have the ability to stand on its own at some point, without the Big Picture Idea name next to it.

2. We love color, so not too much black and white, and try to not go just for the more classic colors like blue and red, but feel free to experiment with other colors (like deep purple, bright green etc.) (I've uploaded the cover page of a presentation I am preparing (this is a PPT template), with colors and overall style we like.

3. We are all about clean, very streamlined, contemporary feel and design. Not too corporate (after all, we're about new, disruptive, and game changing ideas in technology and innovation)...

Thanks!

Hi!
We've been able to extend the competition for a few more days - since I needed to get feedback from my team (unavailable over the weekend ...).
We really appreciate all the great work everybody has done so far.
It's sad that some designers have already withdrawn their designs.
That may have been be too early, since the ranking may still change a bit, once the rest of our team can chime in.

Thanks again, this will be really a difficult decision with the great choices you are giving us.
