Here are just some new bean-faces. I'll post just them from now on, so if you like some of them specially, I'll incorporate it together with typo. Let me know what you think. Thank you.

Can you elongate the faces & "O" so that they are more 'bean-like'?

Thank you so much!!!

Here are the versions with elongated letters. I had to elongate 'c' too, otherwise it looks strange. I'll make variations where the face is not part of the word.

Thanks- SO cute!! Our sign is a long rectangle- any way you could make it fit a rectangle better? Also, could you try the background that lime green as well. Thanks!

I was referencing # 111- like it!

Could you also make the stem maybe curled? Something to make it look a little more "bean" like?

Logo Designer
Revisions. I made a couple of more variations. Also, the two variations of stem, i prefer the first one - it looks more like bean to me, but it's up to you : )

#119 and #120 are AWESOME!!! I guess I wasn't very specific though- our sign is 8'X3' so it is long. Could you do these two longer rather than taller? And also, could you bold the word a little more? Thanks!

Could you also mess around with the layout? Possibly put the face on the left or right or in the middle of the words? And make "Cool Beans" as large as possible. Thank you so much- we are excited!!

Hi, here are modified logos. I had to change a couple of details, like mixed typo in previous submissions, because IMHO it does not work well when put vertically. Here are a bunch of variations. I'll post some more variations tomorrow ( it's already 4 am here :).

Sincerely,

Yanati

SO CUTE!!! WE LOVE them! I will talk to my partners... Any way you could do ##134 with "Cool" in cursive? Thanks!
15 years ago
 
Yanati,
YOU ARE SO CLOSE!! Could you also try "Cool" in white and "beans" in green? Also, could you get rid of the stem and do two leaves? And what about staggering the words as well. Something really close to #119 but just longer? We LOVE the face but people aren't getting that it's a bean. Any ideas to make it more "bean like"?

Yanati,
I saw they removed your logo for looking too much like "Appleseeds" logo. And we were a little concerned with that as well. I KNOW we LOVE the look and style of the logos you have created and are planning on going with you. But maybe you could do a cute tree in the middle and two beans on the sides of "Playhouse and Cafe"? Something maybe a little different then what they have? Just a thought- we don't really want to get in trouble either if our logo looks similar to theirs- especially since we are so similar in concept as well! I hope you understand and you have done such a great job! We love them all!!

Hi,

I'm glad you like it :)
No problem,I'll make the changes and post new revisions later today. Btw, the logo as it looks now is different enough from the logo from your reference site, the only common element is 'character', but I'll add some details to make it more unique, more bean like.

bean makeover : ) This is just 'sketch', but I think its now different enough from 'appleseed'. It dosen't look like bean completely, but I'm working on it....

#139 Will you make the background white?
Trim Brown
Make the word "beans" green
The leaves make them green
Make playhouse and cafe a little larger.

HI, regarding #120 - if I leave it the exactly same, and make it 8x3 inches the typo will be much smaller and a lot of empty space on the sides ( I prefer not to add any details on the sides, because it is going to be a little to much in my opinion ).. It can work only if I put typo all in one line like in previous submissions or just change the dimensions of the rectangle, so it wont be so long. I'll post example in a couple of minutes.

Will you make the green a little darker? We still want it to be lime color, but we are afraid that it will be washed out on our back lighted sign.

Leaves: the strip white not green
Steams: brown

Sweet! I think we have plenty to choose from! We are meeting tonight to discuss and will get back with you shortly.

Okay - we are in the final hours & so excited!!! We are definitely going with you & would like to continue on.

In reference to #166 & #167: Can you try to drop the little face into the box so that nothing is sticking out of it? Also, fill in the space as much as possible by enlarging 'Cool Beans' as well as 'Playhouse & Cafe'.

We are in love with the 'bean face' but can you try a really cute tree or make the bean longer? Or here's another idea:

Draw a tree with a little face in the middle of the tree trunk? Cool on one side & Beans on the other. We like the font a lot.

Oh yeah....
THANK YOU!!!

HI, I added the tree and enlarged the font as much as possible.

Great! #183 it is!! A couple little things...
- Could you make Beans the same size as Cool?
- Could you also try it with a brown background? Similar to #112? Maybe you could make the trunk a light brown or cream or something? THANKS!!! WE ARE SO EXCITED!! It's just perfecting it now.

Hi,

it would be a little difficult to make the 'beans' the same size as 'cool' and still make it fit the frame. In that case i would have to make the tree and beans smaller. The other option is to change font for the beans?

Really like #198. Could you just make playhouse and Cafe bolder and longer and then do the tree thing I e-mailed you? And make the tree leaves green and "Cool" white?
