Historic First Church (COGIC)Logo Design Contest

sent . might want to check the bulk/spam folder too, just in case

ok

i'll send you a blank message . So you can have the return address

David,
Will you please send me your email?
jclemmons@students.nbts.edu

Ok, I can no longer see it but that’s ok for now.

i withdrew them myself. at this point you and me are tho only ones that can still see them.

thank you

Wow! This is amazing, David! Absolutely beautiful! I will do as you say now.

hands will probably look like this .
less width / arms , removed all maroon and gold tones.
now, please, after you see it, please eliminate all my designs from the contest.
since it's a logo contest this might look line an illustration...which do not fit in here :)
as a final note : this graphic is full vector , so it will scale with no loss at smaller or larger size.

this would be best i assume . either way, after the contest is awarded and completed, you can always start on this very platform an 1 to 1 project, or... on email ...whichever suits you best .

What do you think?

Yes, I agree that you need to see where it would fit. I also agree that this is different from the contest itself. Maybe I should award the winner of the logo then I would be able to send you the logo would be enhancing or providing another version from. What do think?

and it would help me a lot to see where the hands actually will fit in ...

best thing would be to send me a private message by clicking my name . there you can send me a file.
also i thought it will better for now to withdraw from the contest since the work i am doing now has nothing else to do with the contest itself.
wouldn't you agree ?

I guess my concern is that the arms might not be able to be reduced in width to match the width of the letter stroke. I wish there were a way for me to show you the logo or letter I would like to insert the hands into.

thank you. i'll prepare that.

# 1 would work best

thanks :)
width of the hands on which side ? 1 or 2 ?

Hi David,

This looks great! Did you draw the clasping hands? Can the width of the arms be adjusted along with the color of both? Great job!!

#128 - just a sketch for hand position and appearance .
please pick the one which is more suitable for you.
i will colorize it, and on the no.1 i'll add the cross if required.
no.2 is basically the same design presented but the hand grasp is lowered to the hand.

David,
Thank you very much for understanding! Yes, that’s exactly what we’re going for. We’re trying to communicate one person pulling up another to communicate service to another. However, it needs to take the place the the vertical stroke of the letter “F”. I guess the challenge would be to make the clasping hands clear even when reduced to fairly small.
Blessings,

Joseph

Hello . Nice to hear from you Joseph.
There is no disrespect whatsoever :) .
Let me first work the hands and we'll take it from there .
So : basically move the hands to hold each other, closer but still clasping... not exactly in a handshake way ...not sure how to put this...
I'll prepare a version and present it as soon as i can.
Thank you.
Best regards.

David,
I really like your clasping forearms. Would you be willing to make them into clasping hands and change the maroon to dark brown and the gold to tan? Then, sell that artwork to us in a format that would allow us to the reduce the size and alter the color? I believe we have decided on another logo but would like to try a version of that logo inserting your hands which are awesome and unique. I know that this is an unusual proposal and hope that it is not disrespectful in any way. Hopefully, we can work out something. Blessings, Joseph
