ELI ConnectionLogo Design Contest

Thank you for sharing your talent, brilliance, and expertise - and - your patience! I am absolutely thrilled! Thank you SO much.

Wow, Thank u for selected me as a winner!....cheers...

Brilliant! This is the winner!! Thank you so much for your patience and talent!

Sorry to do this so late in the game, but I've been getting a consistent comment from my survey that the text is a little too small. I asked a programmer friend of mine for his opinion, and this is what he said:

"Hmm... I agree the smallest text is hard to read without squinting. :) I like the alignment in terms of the small text fitting precisely just under "ELIConnection" -- maybe your designer could bump up both by 10% so they stay consistent? Or alternatively maybe there's a sharper font s/he could use for that small text -- if the letters are really crisp, I'd imagine they'd be readable even if they are small."

If possible, could you please consider making an adjustment to a bit larger? I really like the image, so all is well there. Greatly appreciated!

I wanted to take a moment to Thank You for your incredible submission, no matter what the outcome. I am taking a little time right now to step back and contemplate, but will make a final decision by tomorrow. I am in Austin, TX USA to give you an idea of where I am time wise.

Thank you again - this is really amazing!

Thank u...

All I can say is WOW! Thank you so much for the changes. This is so hard! :)

I think this is better than other my designs...

done the corrections..

Hello - ok, I've moved you back into first for changes.

One question - do you see that dark "smudge" to the lower right in the image? Not sure what that is?

Again, please add the comma back after light - Energy, Light, and Information and make that a bit larger.

I've moved you back into first so you can submit these small tweaks. Thank you SO much.

ok..... :). love ur comments....

And add the comma back after Light. :)

I love it! Please let me ask you this - does it seem there is a slight "bulge" near the breast area on the right side? Please, not more muscular, but maybe make that more smooth? Please remember, I only moved you out of first to see the changes that I had requested on number two and ran out of time.

Also, I like the ratio between the image size and text, but could you make the text a little larger for the Energy, Light, and Information Connection without blowing the proportions? I will move you back into first after I see what the other designer comes back with.

Thank you so much.

The figure is half feminine (left side). U can see a single change under the top DNA. That's why i covered by DNA. If u need more muscular man on the other side, i can ..... :)

Want you to know I changed rankings so I can see some changes on the other. Apparently you have to be in first place to make changes in this phase. Please understand.

The question I was going to ask is - Do you think the figure leans towards being too feminine? This was a comment from my Mom. :) As you realize I'm sure, your design is what I'm leaning towards, hence the ranking for several days. From a designers standpoint, I would appreciate your thoughts on this. I think it's an illusion, but that was her perception. Thank you.

May I ask your opinion on something?

Sorry, could you add the comma back after Light please?
Energy, Light, and Information Connection. Thank you!

Excellent! Thank you.

done!

Thank you.

Yes

Is this the same image as #157, just bigger?

Love the binary across the background! Realized the binary would be tiny on the DNA, but I like it!

Couple small tweaks -

Could you replace the text on this version (#157) with the text from #35 please?

And, please make the image larger in relation to the text - or - the text smaller in relation to the image please? I'm going to lean on your design expertise as to which you think makes more sense. Thank you!

comments pls....

The binary code is very small on the lines of DNA. .... comments pls....

Thank you!

Ok

Hello - did a survey and got great feedback on the image, but mixed reviews on the text treatment, which I liked, but heard a little "starbucksy" - absolutely no offense intended. But if that was the take away from somebody I really respect, I have to listen. So, I moved this one back in play, which I really like as well. Please consider my previous comments for this submission. Wondering if vertical separators would make sense, since you have it defined immediately below. Perhaps the image could be a little larger in relation to the text? Thank you for your excellent work and patience!

I like the font change. Thank you!

A couple small requests - first, your thoughts if I may - Do you think having a vertical separator between E L and I would help avoid confusion of people thinking it is the name "Eli" (e lye)? I would think all caps would make that distinction, and the fact it is typed out at the bottom, but would appreciate your thoughts. I don't want it to get too busy.

Secondly, and this may make it too busy, but could you try replacing the long lines, not the crossing connecting lines, you used for the DNA with a string of binary numbers? I realize they would be tiny, and that is fine. The string I'd like you to use is
01001100010011110101011001000101 - that is the binary code for the word LOVE. You can run multiple sets of the numbers all together, no separation necessary.

Thank you!

Still really like this one, and don't want you to jump through hoops, but I'd like to request seeing this exactly how you have it, other than change the serif font to the same font you have for Energy, Light, etc. Same colors please. Thank you!

:)

Brilliant!

Hi, would u like any changes of fonts?

K, :)

Really like this! Couple small things - could you please put a comma after LIGHT - so ENERGY, LIGHT, AND INFORMATION CONNECTION

Could we try a deep maroon for the text? Not a designer, so don't shoot me! :-)
