Gaylord Evangelical Free ChurchLogo Design Contest

Hello,

I thought I would show you a different layout of the words as well with Evangelical Free being on the same line.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

I'll be happy to show you some examples of more modern pitchers and different colors on the current one so you can see what those would look like. I'll work on those this weekend.
Thank you very much again for the feedback,
TIm

Hello,

Before the different pitchers and colors, I wanted to change the font of the motto on #132 and #121 to the one you liked from #117.
The new ones are:

#135
#137

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

The following are variation in color on the pitcher and basin of #132, with the font you liked from #117.
I'll be doing some modern shaped and material (glass) elements as well to show you how those look.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

This one is a more modern shaped, glass pitcher and basin as an option.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #156)

Hello,

This is a more modern pitcher made of clay and in the same colors as #132.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #159)

We've decided that we like the pitcher and bowl layout of 116 (with the basin behind) as well as the colors, but would like to see it with the pitcher of 121. We would like to see the text of Gaylord Evangelical Free Church all in one size font as well as with a layout similar to that of 134.

The only hang up we're having with this design is that it doesn't scream "young contemporary church." The idea of it doesn't necessarily do this as much as how it's portrayed. If we can somehow make it look more streamlined/sleek/etc. I like the idea of more of a free flowing/script for the motto but am not liking what we have so far and would like to see something different as well.

Thanks so much Tim...sorry it's taken us a few days to gather our thoughts!

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback.
I'll do a few versions with the pitcher from #121 and the text changes, then I'll see what I can come up with as far as a more streamlined look...maybe an abstract.

Thanks again,
Tim

Hello,

The following designs are the changes using the pitcher from #121 and the same sized text, as well as the text layout from #134.
#160 - the same with just the new pitcher so you could see just that difference.
New pitcher is in the rest:
#161 - same sized text
#162 & #163 - 3 lines of text and different fonts in the motto
#164 & #165 - flowing text in the name, different fonts
#175 - similar text to the original with larger first letters of each word

I'm going to get to work on a sleeker, more modern version of the concept as well for another option.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

These are my first two of one of the ideas I have for a more contemporary look, using the same concept and colors.

#179 , #167

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,


I had to withdraw a few and re-submit as there was a small spacing error I wanted to fix, which is why an older version is mixed in with the newer ones. I'm sorry about that.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

I added the circle and some shading to give some background and a different look, as well as the link with community.:

#182 , #183


Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #183)

Hello,

These are a few other ideas for a more contemporary look. I removed the raised outlines and did simple images with shadows:

#184 , #185

The next two are simple images using a brush outline, not the same thickness all around for an interesting look:

#186 , #187


Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

These last few are probably the most modern looking with the bit of shine and the reflection.
I did all of the latest contemporary versions with the same text layout as there just would have been too many variations and I wanted to show the different designs foremost. Any of these can be used with any of the text layouts I've done, very easily. Just let me know if there are any that you like and I can go from there with the text.

Entry #195 , #193 , #192

Without the reflection:

Entry #189 , #190 , #191

Thanks again for all the feedback,
Tim

Hello,

The last one for this evening.

Thank you for you time,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #196)

Hello,

Just a couple of different color combinations. I can easily move the image to the left of the text or use the colors in any other design as well. I just wanted to give you a number of variations on the more contemporary ones.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #203)

I like the outlined pitcher and basin...I also like the circle around it but can I possibly see it with a square with rounded corners or something similar (the feeling is we like the circle but would like to see something different than a circle as an option)? Also with entry 164 we have a request on the team to maybe try flipping the image to try and cut down on the white space to the left of "church"

Also just FYI we're meeting at 7:00 EST this evening for our final evaluations so I'll keep you posted following that meeting!

Hello,

Thank you again for the info.
Here is the request for #164 reversed to cut down on the white space.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #206)

Hello,

Just a different text layout on #164 with the image reversed...

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #207)

Hello,

This is #183 using a square instead of a circle as another option.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #208)

Hello,

This one has more rounded corners.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #209)

Hello,

This is #209 with the design to the left.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #211)

Hello,

This one is #209 using the font style from #164 as another option.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #213)

Hello,

This is #193 using a square instead of a circle.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #214)

Hello,

This is #214 with a reflection.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #215)

Hello,

Lastly, these two are #190 using a square instead of the circle, with and without a reflection.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #217)

Hey Tim,

We like the square with the reflection....we have some colors that we would like to request to see how they would look. In photoshop their numbers are....877b63 and ac7846...one is a little bit more of a bronze. We wanting to see something with more depth in color and a bit warmer...some of the current colors just look too drab. We did like the idea of the split color in the background in 196 as it created the illusion of a table possibly. We also liked the coloring in 192.
Also with the basin and pitcher in the square we would like to see the towel drape out of the square as in #183.
With the text our team is split on liking the font in 164 or in 183...we like the script/flowing text in 164 but feel it may look a little dated and want something more contemporary and with the font in 183 we feel like it's too cold and boxy...so if we can find a font that brings the two together that would be fabulous!
We like the bowl in 116 but the pitcher in 164.

I think that's it for now!

Thanks so much!

Hello,

I'm glad you like those. I'll get to work on doing the variations with the colors and the other things as soon as I get my little one to bed.

Thanks again,
Tim

Hello,

I'll start with the easiest one first.
This is #116 using the bowl from #164.

I'll do the variations on the square ones with the colors and the towel next, using the colors you provided.
Then I'll use those colors on the one I just submitted here.
Lastly, I'll do a few with different fonts and try to find a middle ground between the two that you are split between.
As always, once I have these done it's no trouble at all to mix and match if you like the color and design from one but the font from another and so on.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #219)

Hello,

This is one of the square ones with the towel edge outside the square and using the two colors you provided.
They go very well together!

More to come...

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #226)

Hello,

I see what you mean by a warmer color, so I wanted to do a couple more of the square one using the dark color you gave and a couple different lighter colors for you to see.

This is close to the colors I used in the very first entry I did in your contest. #232

The next one uses a little deeper bronze color than the one you provided and a light towel as another option.
#224

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

This is #183 using the dark color you gave for the circle.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #225)

Hello,

This is #183 using both the colors you gave me.
- #231 and with the towel a dark color is #228

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

I thought I would show you #219 in the colors you gave me as well just so you could see how that looks.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #230)

Hello,

This is #224 (the square with the colors you gave me) using the split background to suggest a table.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #233)

Hello,

As you can see, I've re-done a number of my top ranked designs and the square ones with the colors you gave me and variations there of. Hopefully, I've covered enough of the variables so if you see something you like from one I can add it to another.

This last variation is just the pitcher you liked and the basin you liked, re-colored in a warmer clay color as another option.

The fonts are next. I'll pick one and do some different fonts on it so you can see what they look like, then if you like one I can use it on one of the other designs you might like.

Thanks again,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #239)

Hello,

This is the first of the new font attempts.
I decided to use the new version of #164 (with the basin from #116) for each of these.

I think this first one is pretty close. It has the basic shape of the capital letters in the boxy font ( #183 ) but has the angle and some of the curves of the script ( # 164 ). It looks right in between the two, but I'll try a few more as well for you to see.
If one of them is good, I can apply it to any other design of course.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #240)

Hello,

Here's another font that seems to be right between the two. It has similar letter shapes to the script but without the long tails on some of the letters, which is what I think makes the other look dated.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #241)

Hello,

This is the last of the different font examples. There are 8 in all, starting with entry #240.
I think they all fall between the boxy and the script font you mentioned.

Have a good night,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #247)

Good morning,

I wanted to take one of the new fonts, between boxy and script, and also show it to you with some of the higher ranked designs, ones you said you liked and some with the new colors just so you could see how those look without having to imagine it.
The font in these is from #242, but I can easily change any of these to the font from #241 or any of the others.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #259)

Hello,

I also extended the towel outside of the circle or square in some of these. In this one I lined up the line above the motto with it and it has a nice tie in effect.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #263)

Hello,

This one uses the colors you gave me, the square with reflection, a two-tone background to suggest a table and the newer "in-between" font.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #264)

Hello,

This is #196 with the towel edge outside the circle and the new font example.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #265)

Hello,

This is #190 with the towel edge extended and one of the new fonts.
I think that I got them all now, but I'll re-read through the comments and make sure.

Take care,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #267)

Hello,

I wanted to do one of the pitcher and basin you liked in a warmer clay color and a font color from one of my first entries ( #11 or so ), just to show you how that looks.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #270)

Hello,
These last two are a different positioning in the text as another option which I can apply to any other design if you'd like.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #276)

Hello,

This is the last idea I had right now, and after re-reading all the comments I think I have all the variations covered.
Thanks again for all the feedback in trying to pin one down.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #280)

We really like the newer colors. I'm thinking we'll want just a solid color behind the pitcher/bowl instead of the split.

Hello,

These 3 are #271 with just a single colored background.

#284 - The darker color you gave me, lighter in the center.

#285 - a darker tint

#286 - The darker color you gave me without the lighter center.

Thanks again!
Tim
