Creation BoltLogo Design Contest

sure.
to be able to submit designs/revisions during this phase, only first rank designer that can do that. so please put one of my design as rank 1.

Please do a final submission with both black and white backgrounds? Remember clarity for both.

And why do my comments end with a "????" That comes across as rude and I'm NOT doing it on my iPad. I apologize.

Keegan please brighten / lighten the blue. Less navy dark blue and more like my blue square swatch. Thanks! ????

revision for the text "creation"

Looking forward to seeing this. ????

Love the colors. Is this as wide as advisable for the web? I'm asking with hopes it can be wider so that the words can be a little larger.

Let's make Creation thicker, again so that it can be more easily read. I think the symbol is perfect and in size so let's get these words down to maximum clarity and we'll be there. If you submit more than one version with the word changes I'll pick ONE from them to provide any further feedback. Whatever you think is best.

THANK YOU!!

I agree that the symbol works great when reduced. This also shows me that the "Creation" wording is too thin because I can barely read it when its this size. Can we make it thicker. I like the font. Also, let's try making the "Bolt" portion thicker than the "Creation" size because its lighter yellow-orange color requires more weight to be easily read on a white background. Hope that's clear.

Also, I saw what you did with all the lighting bolts. However, I don't think it works with this design. If it's a head piece than you can't tell it's a human body anymore. If it's in their stomach it looks like they're sick. Let's keep it simple.

the logo can be favicon/apps. vary clear and recognizeable at small size

very small size

Hi,

thanks for the feedback.

I will improve the yellow to be brighter.

well if you want to target all ages, the logo have to be simple and not having too many elements. that's why I try to stay with simple design. A more complex logo is hard for Older people.

The font is not standard, it's a more rounded not like arial or helvetica. actually it's the same as google new logo's font :)
but I will try to try some other fonts.

I will work on it now.

Ok, I think the blue is done! I like it in both white and black versions. However, the yellow-orange still needs to be *more* yellow and less orange please.

Also, the simplicity of your symbol design means we can make it less tall / vertical and allow more space for lettering clarity. It's VERY important to me that it can be easily read by everyone (i.e. middle aged not wearing reading glasses but close) when reduced to what would appear on a cell phone.

You can put some space between the Creation and Bolt words because yes, it's a phrase, but it's also a .com. So please not enough to make it "proper" but some space.

Is that a standard font btw? Is there anything else a little more "special"? Again, I like how simple and clean it is so please don't lose that. But maybe "Creation Bolt" could be a little more creatively font-ed.

Thank you for this symbol design. It's going to be tough to choose.

I see what you're doing, but the blog is less about people supporting you and more about opening yourself to the creativity and knowledge inside all of us.

ok. I will re read it all while I make the revisions now.

sure. please wait!

May I see this one with the same comments I left for #246? Thank you!

Look at you! This is great, Keegan!

Colors: I need that perfect middle ground for both the blue and yellow-orange colors so that they look great on both a white OR black background. So the blue needs to be brighter in that shade. And that's still too orange-y for what I'm looking for. Please use more of the brighter yellow-orange hues. I think from the outer edges of the yellow-orange sample square I submitted.

I'm not crazy about the font choice because I don't like it when letters don't look "correct". Actually, I do like the look of your "Creation Bolt" lettering except for the "r". It just looks wrong to me. I'm also concerned about the lettering being read when presented in the logo on a cell phone. This lettering may be too thin so please give it more weight?

Please make sure we're not too "serious" with this logo. It's about creativity flowing and positivity, so I've been turned away from design proposals that look too "corporate".

I like the 4 words below in blackish. We'd have to use white-ish on a dark background.

My first response to your symbol design is VERY positive. I like. Let's try making the head circle slightly larger. Slightly.

From this point forward let's always see this on both a light and dark background so we can iron out the details. THANK YOU!!

4 segment but 3 blue area
represent "C"

4 segment "create" negative space people as inspiration

variation from earlier logo with new concept:
-4 segment
-connect
-bold inside as negative space

Love this look but I think of people symbols as meaning they are there to support you. Our content will be more about inspiration from within. Thank you though!!
