Entry #67 and 68: I love both of these designs! Thank you for joining the competition. I may ask for a few minor color changes soon but. right now, I don't need to see any changes. I'm trying to figure out if the idea of a license plate design (that's what I see, anyway) makes sense when associated with the HIRED! course. I think it does, but I'm going to ask for feedback from a few key clients. Thank you so much!
Thanks Laural! I can easily change the shape if you want to go with something more rectangular. I didn't want to highlight any part of the word "hired" because I keep seeing either "hi" or "red" and not "hired" so I think that it works well over the entire word. If you do see the license plate you could always play with a theme of "get going to work" or something along those lines. I'm here if you need anything.
Jeff - can you, by any chance, try design #67 w/ more subdued colors? Maybe a bit grey-scaled? I LOVE this design, and it's in the top spot for a reason, but I'm concerned that when folks take the course, and put the logo on their site, that it won't match their background. Thanks!!!
Thanks Laural. I would actually think that the opposite would be true. Most sites are black or white and this definitely pops. I can also give you one like #147 with the black outline so that there is separation between the logo and whatever background color they are using. Let me know what you think. If there are particular sites you are concerned about let me know and I can show you how the logo can work on that color.
Hi Jeff - I know, I did reorder. I'm sorry I didn't let you know. I actually prefer your logo the most, but I have a team of folks working on the launch of this course, and I have to go with majority rule. They like the second logo because it looks like a keyboard (online course, you know). I don't know if you remember, but we worked together before. I have always loved your work! We're still deciding, but it's getting down to the wire. I hope you won't take it personally if you don't win. You know I've always been a fan. :) Laura
No worries Laura. What project did we work on together previously?
I just uploaded some revised designs that make my initial design look more like a key. You also have the added benefit of it being self contained like my original logo which makes it easier to use on different background colors which I know was a concern of yours.
Jeff - I wanted to take a moment to share that I'm about to end the contest. I'm sorry that you're not going to win. I loved your effort and I always enjoy working with you. You are a true pleasure and a talent. Thank you for your time.
