Hi, and once again thank you for the ranking and comments.
I peeked into the studio last night. It was dark so I could not see the colors, but I did make the reds a bit more burnt red and darkened the sage too. I also saw the sun/om that you have on the wall behind the reception desk. Is that the one that you are referring to? Unfortunately, I cannot come down to the studio during the day. We are not allowed outside communication (direct emails or conversation) with a CH until after a contest is complete. During the course of the contest it is necessary the we communicate via these comments and/or private message through Logotournament. It may sound a bit extreme, but this assures that there is complete transparency and fairness for all the designers competing. Of course, after a contest is over, we are free to open a dialogue, do additional work or meet and fine tune the logo.
I just uploaded a few more designs based on the design that you had ranked in first last night
#54. I included the sun/om from the wall of the studio. I created it this morning from memory. It may not be completely accurate, because it was dark and a bit difficult to see. (In the back of my mind I was worried that the clientele at Strings, might think I was casing the place - lol) Anyway, please let me know if this sun is OK. If there is another source photo you would like me to see, can you please provide a link where I might be able to see it? It's also OK for you to upload to something like imageshack.com and then post the link here.
Feel free to ask for ANY revisions. If, for instance, you like the font of one but want to see it in the layout of another one, it would be my pleasure to change them around for you to see. As for the colors, they can be changed at any time, even if the contest is completed, I can then drop by with a color chart and actually see the color in the light of day. :)
Thank you and I look forward to any additional comments you may have.
