Thank you for your interest in our contest. I like your designs, and see plenty of potential in both of them. Let me try to provide some of the feedback that I think can bring us even closer to a "winning logo":
I really like the simplicity in your logo. Good job! We are looking for a simple, yet energetic, logo. It would be interesting to see a version of your suggestions with a bit more "kapow" and "energy" to it. I checked out your profile, and maybe we can get some inspiration from the logos you made to "Muffin Blast", "Yooble", "Cluckson's", or "Baloon".
Our original thought was to get a handshake in the logo. It may not be possible - as we also want to maintain the simplicity! With your obvious talent for simplicity, maybe you can try to work with the idea? We can then see if we should forget it, or keep it in there.
The color scheme of the logo is important in different ways. Obviously, we would like to have a good looking logo, but we are actually also looking to build the color scheme of the website based on the logo. It may be hard to communicate on the contest, but I would be interested to learn more about your thoughts on the general color scheme of the site based on your suggested logos. You are welcome to write me on mp@cashout.dk.
We expect the main audience to be females (60/40). Maybe the logo in its current state is a bit too masculine? It would be interesting to see a more feminine version to compare.
Well, that is all for now. Cannot wait to see the updated suggestions from you.
Hi, Thank you for your feedback. I have tried with the font and color that more female. Handshake on the logo visualized in a simple form that is interlocked of the letter "H" and "U" form the letter O.
I like your idea with a different version of the handskake. Let us work further with that. Maybe a small arrow or similar at each end of that "circle" that forms the letter "O" could be an idea?
With regards to the coloring, I think we are now a bit too feminine. Check out this site: https://cloud.oracle.com/home. Flip the pages till you get to the one named "Oracle Cloud Marketspace". I am very fond of those colors. Maybe you can work with those?
Jut for the experiment, can we try different colors for the green part of the logo. Something feminine, without being too feminine. Would just like to see if there is a better combo (although it looks great already).
As you can see, we are quite fond of your logos. We especially like #114 and #191. Let us work further with those for now.
The designs per se are good. Let us stick with those. We would, however, like to see different ideas in tems of colors. We are open to creative suggestions, but are thinking in terms of:
1) We are considering the two primary colors to be light blue (alike the one used in your logo #156), and "orange". Think in terms of colors like the ones on the formerly mentioned Oracle site.
2) As mentioned in the general comments, we would like to get each designer's feedback on which color-scheme would go well together with their logo (4-6 colors).
3) As mentioned in the general comments, we would like to see each designer's suggestion to an "avatar" to be used with the logo, and on the site in general.
