Entry #4 - I like that you added the pin with the house. Not interested in the design overall but would be very interested in seeing this in a new direction. I really like your Ajabo designs in your profile! Thank you.
Entry #12 without the shadow from the pin is excellent. I would like to see it stacked and in a different color combination if possible. You are very good, thank you.
Thanks for the great feedback... I played with some color options and stacking...all can be mixed and matched or totally different colors if you have something else in mind. -FD
I like where you are going but I do have an idea. First, the font design is a little distracting. I liked the simplicity of #5 with the higher setting of the pin in entry #12. I want to move away from the orange and green and go with one of these combos. Orange/light gray or blue/green or blue/light gray. Do you think it would be too busy to have the pin dropped low (like in #26) to use as an "o" in home and use a similarly styled magnifying glass as an "i" in twist? Lastly, I liked the white running through the middle of the words in #12 but it doesn't look as good in the other color combinations. Thank you for your hard work.
Entry #37 - I really like this one a lot. The magnifying glass is a little large but don't worry about tweaking that now. I am sure you can tweak it a little if I choose it at the end. Same with the colors, they are not my favorite shades of blue and green but that can easily be tweaked later. Thank you!
Now that's what I'm talking about! I really like it. My partner thinks your design is the best though I am torn. The only suggestion I can make is the colors. I really like the colors on #12 and think that is the direction (color wise) we are going to go. Can I see it in a different font?
I like #55 better though we need to move away from the orange and green. It's funny because that was originally how I designed the site was those colors. It was going to be a mix of an orange and a lime fruit kind of like the way sprite has a lemon and lime but too many people hated the color combo. :) I'd like to see it in blue / green and also in blue / gray (not a dark gray though). Thank you!
Yeah, I was confused because I know you said you didn't want orange and green before but in the last comment I thought you were refering back to an orange and green design as a color combo you liked. Anyway , no problem... I will work on some new color combos for you.
On #59, can you give the map marker the same gradient as the blue font? ... where it ends at the bottom in a lighter blue color. I still wont the light reflection at the top left of the marker so don't change that, I love that. Also, in the magnifying glass, I think it gets too busy. Meaning, right now there's an outer ring of blue, then a ring of white followed by a gradient of black to gray to black. can we try making the black/gray/black gradient just a solid gray to match the font color? Same with the magnifying glass on #58 but on that one can you make the outer border around the whole design blue instead of the green you have now? Thank you.
One last thing, sorry. I like the house inside the magnifying glass (don't love it) but dislike the house in the map marker. I know they are virtually the same but there is just enough difference that makes me not like it. Can you tweak it a little to make it more like the house in the mag? Maybe add a chimney on the right side of the roof (just on the house in the marker since it is larger).
I like the changes you made to the magnifying glass, though I think the glass part of it is too dark of a gray. I'd rather it be closer to clear or transparent. I LOVE the changes you made to the house. Big improvement! I am torn between the original style of #72 and the new style of #74. The mag looks more like an "i" than the map pin does. For #74, maybe if you raised the map pin a hair higher to position it to look more like an "i" and then put the mag you have as the "o" at a slant so that it is still the "o" but the handle is at an angle hovering over the "m"... and lose the twist below the map pin. Trying to avoid the tornado effect. This is great though. Thank you!!!
I just wanted to let you know that although there are 2 designs ranked above your design, my whole team likes your design the best by far and in the end they will probably get their way unless something else comes up in the next few days. Someone else recently removed their designs because there was another design ranked above them that they felt were inferior. Please do NOT remove your designs. On the last day we will look over every design with the whole team here and decide as a team. Thank you for your patience!
Ok, thanks for the heads up! As always I am open to your feedback and willing to make any revisions you all would like to see. My goal is to provide you with your dream logo!
Thank you for sticking in there. I do have one request. Can I see a version of #79 without a border around it (the white and blue border)? So it would just be the fonts with the gradient. If you have to tweak other aspects to make it look right, then I am okay with that. Whatever you need to do to make this revision look its best. I will probably end up liking your version better but I'd like to rule this other idea out first. Thank you again!
No problem. I do understand the frustration of having people "barrow" your design concept. Especially when you are one the the firsts to post a design. It seems near the end a lot of similar designs come in. It happens all the time. But, that is what Logo Court is for. Here you go...
Thank you but I think you were right on with the concept on #79. At least I will not have a lingering question now. Thank you for satisfying my curiosity and helping me rule that out.
I hate to ask you for one more change. Can I see a blue/green version of #79 but can the green be a little brighter and less forest green in color? Then a version of it with a shadow dropped behind it and one more that is blue/green where that outer blue border is a little thinner? Thank you. Most of my team is leaning in this direction. Thank you
blue/green thinner border. Not sure what you ment by drop shadow. I am going out of town tomorrow until Monday. May be able to do more edits for you though. Just let me know. If not, if you decide to rank me 1 I can continue to make revisions after the contest closes.
I do like that thinner border better, thank you. I am so used to Photoshop, sorry. We can worry about adding a shadow behind the logo later if we decide to use your design. Will it be in an Adobe Illustrator file where I can tweak the colors and gradients? I know Photoshop really well but do not know Illustrator or other programs like that for creating vector graphics.
Yes, It will be in Illustrator and you can tweak colors etc. as long as you have Illustrator. In the meantime let me know if you want to see anything else.
