Thank you for your interest in our contest. I like your designs, and see plenty of potential in both. Let me try to provide some of the feedback that I think can bring us even closer to a "winning logo":
Simplicity is key for us. You have kept your designs simple and neat - I like that. We are, however, also looking for some "kapow" and "energy" in the logo. Can you try and apply a bit more of that?
Our original thought was to get a handshake in the logo. It may not be possible - as we also want to maintain the 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.
Thank you for your updated suggestions. I actually like them a lot better than the first ones. At this point my favorite is #23.
Can we try working with the colors a bit? I would like to see it with a more feminine tone. We have to find the balance between masucline and feminine.
Also, the "card" hanging from the C - can you put that a bit lower, and make it more obvious that it is hanging from the letter C?
Flip the pages till you get to the one called "Oracle Cloud Marketspace". I am very inspired by the color-scheme on that image. Maybe you can use that for inspiration?
I would still like to see the card hanging from the letter "C" changed a bit. Right now, it does not really look like it is hanging. Could you look into that, please?
