no worries, updates upload and the other 2 withdrawn

light grey 2

light grey 1

Hi Scott.....Thanks for all the versions. Regarding #297, the request is for a light gray background inside the oval. The gray should be reasonable dark without compromising the readability of the company name. Sorry for any confusion. Thanks, Skip

Thanks Scott. The line helps. It will help if Steve also can see your #297 with a light gray screen as the background instead of white. Skip

Definitely, the color in #296 is better.

How's this?

How's this? and I have widen the vertical a wee bit

ok

okay

Hi Scott....Blue and blue has great potential. Can you come up with a different light blue? This light blue seems a little too tropical in feeling. Skip

Scott.....This is very interesting. I will be able to get input from Steve tomorrow. Skip

Hi Scott....For your #266, when you have a chance, please extend the line and fill in the white background with a light gray screen. Thanks, Skip

I like this version with the extended vertical bar

CTS conical gradient

No vertical bar

revised CTS with extended vertical bar

revised CTS gradient and darker outline

You've extended the contest?

Thanks Scott. This looks very nice. Skip

update to design #271

1. oval outline changed to light grey
2. move the CTS dark blue outline elft and down a wee bit

no other changes

update with no gradients this is my fav. clean and crisp

update 2 with shift in CTS dark blue outline

update 1 with conical gradient outer ring only

You are right. It appears now. Thanks, Skip

why may need refresh the browser

I do not inderstand? looks fine when viewed from my browser

Thanks for all Scott. For some reason, #272 is not displaying without magnification. Is there an adjustment that you can make? Skip

how it will appear on black

Silver update added a more defined outer ring to enhance the silver contrast

and added a hint of blue tint to the silver to tie it all together the original faux silver is too muddy

bronze option not liking it

gold option not liking it

Updated Silver, I've also removed the fine white ring between the Silver and Blue oval..this look far better

Thanks Scott for all your updated entries. I hope you are feeling better. Your #264 is likely to be the focus. Several on the CTS team wanted to see options with other colors. Most likely, they will come back to silver and blue. Now that silver looks like it can be an important part of the logo, it will be nice if you can produce a few versions of #264 with more silver. As a start, please provide #264 with the CTS initial in silver. Thanks, Skip

That will be fine Scott. I hope you feel better in the morning. If you are not feeling well then, please let me know. Skip

Hi Skip I'll have these done in the morning my time (Atlantic Standard Time) okay I am not feeling well and heading offline for the night.

Scott....Steve has asked to see your #205 with same coloring as your #210. A refinement or variation of your #151, however, is your best direction. Skip

Scott....Also, with #151 with space between the T and S, please try a silver background and dark blue initials and words. Thanks, Skip

Scott....With some variation of your #151 you have excellent chance to win. First, as a small matter, Steve would like to add a small amount of space between the T crossbar and the S. For all entries, please keep that separation. Steve likes the silver and blue, but would like to see a version with the following: (1) red ring, (2) white background, (3) CTS in red letters, and (4) Credential Testing Services in black letters. Any other combinations of color or design variations you can think of will be appreciated. You are on a good track. Skip

Steve has been making good progress, and should be fine tomorrow. Skip

Thank you, how did the surgery go?

Steve will appreciate your response Scott. I will give you input as I receive it. Skip

How's this?

Okay I'll upload revision shortly

Hi Scott....Steve will get input from staff tomorrow. I will be able to provide feedback in about 24 hours. Stave has asked if you could put a little more spacing between the top part of the T and the S. Also, it might help if you put the company name in bold type. I will give you more input as soon as I receive it. Keep up your good work. Skip

minor update letter T

My be something as simple as that but I still wish success and speedy recover. Is there anything you can think of I should do with the design?

Thanks for asking Scott. It is cataract surgery. Steve will be fine in a day, and will be back at work on Wednesday. I will talk with him on Tuesday night. He will make the final decision, but will get reactions from staff on Wednesday. I will follow up with him that night or the next day. All depends on his schedule. I will keep you posted. Skip

Eye surgery, hope it is not too serious.

Hi Scott.....Your #206 looks absolutely excellent to me. Steve will provide placement. He has eye surgery in the morning. I will be able to get input from him Tuesday night. Great work! Skip

How's this?

Scott....Steve also relates well to your #151, but would like to see a full demarcation line between the T and S. This also is a format for you to use an a basis for other thoughts you might have. Skip

Hi Scott....I spoke with Steve King of CTS this morning. He relates well to your #160, but would like to have the check mark removed. He likes the way the initials tie together at the bottom. Where the T and S come together at the top, you might consider keeping the half line, but making it slightly more visible. If you want to experiment with anything, this would be a good foundation to use. I will give you all insight I receive, and will do all I can to help. Skip

Is there anything I can do that has not been done?
