Hi Geoff,
So, building on your comment -- as with Ovidius and its use in the currently ranked #1 design -- may I ask what it is about that typeset-design that works for you? I believe the entries you marked today as "not interested" are entries I submitted early on (as I mentioned I'd be "shaping this concept as we go along")...well, these were just starting points. I never assumed they'd be the final product; I wanted to see what type you preferrred, and then I'd go from there.
I'm still stunned you've left the Ovidius-only design in first place (
#79), actually. Thought you'd have placed that further down the line, due to the design brief and the comments you've just shared with me here. So, please forgive me when I say...I'm a little confused! :) Its texture comes with the type, and there's no graphic element present. Same as with
#203 -- that's just type arranged in a pattern (no graphic element). And they're both by the same designer (Prolific), if you didn't realize that.
And, I'm stunned you're commenting on my designs! Thought you were sick of me. :) Glad to see you've taken time to comment on my work, it's appreciated.
As always, it's good to see a client care about the work that's submitted -- it's a good quality to have here. I believe that you, as a designer who's competed in LT tournaments, may have a special perspective that others may not typically share. And, I enjoyed looking at your portfolio; it was nice to see the design chops of the buyer I'm speaking with.
Have a great night! -Jennifer
