Fortis Wind Energy - U.S.Logo Design Contest

We don't want to look like a huge GE turbine. We want to look like our turbines. There are subtle differences in the shape of the blades.

If you are showing it 3D, it needs to include the tail.
They turn clockwise and are singular installations... not big farms with more than one.

Lettering should be solid, dependable, reliable... They should NOT be futuristic, techy, new, or flashy
Logo should look good big, small, printed in color, printed in black and white. I generally like simiple designs.

I am still eager to see more entries. One designer made a comment that "I had zeroed in on what I wanted" and that there was "no reason to submit more entries". I am NOT married to any of these designs and the contest is still wide open. NEW SUBMISSIONS ARE ENCOURAGED! Thanks!!!

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage more participation.

~~ Ranking designs daily will also keep your contest from getting cluttered.

~~ The more feedback you provide, the better results you are going to see.

~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested"

~~ Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation.

These are some of the folks that will be at the same conferences and trade shows as us. We would like to stand out, look different, and be memorable

Entry #60 has the most realistic depiction of one of our turbines. I would like to see more entries that use a realistic image/sketch. Check out http://www.fortiswindenergy.com/recently-installed and maybe try one with an Alize model or a Passaat. #60 uses the Montana model which has a very unique tail... a Passaat or an Alize would be easier to draw and more general. But I would still like to see the house represented too!

Thank you again for the help.

#60, #61, #68, #69 and #72 are great depictions of our turbine! Thanks!!!

The tail on the Montana model is kind of weird... The Alize model and the Passaat model have tails that are probably easier to design into a logo.

The newest entries (85, 86) have also done a good job of showing our turbine! Thank you!

Thanks everyone for all your efforts. We'll make a decision in the next few days!

Thanks again to all the designers. I really enjoyed this process and apprecate everyone's efforts and suggestions. It was a very close race at the end and any of the top ten could have won.

If any of you need a wind turbine, please don't hesitate to look us up!
best,
alex
