Hi,
I have updated the brief with a slogan - you may want to replace Senior Human Resources with the words in my slogan.
The darker blue hues is much better. Thank you.

#36 - this entry is very different from the rest you have sent. And, quite interesting. Two suggestions:
1. make the blue darker
2. make the entry stronger so that it looks strong even in monotone. I think at the current state it may not be strong enough.

Question - would there be something else (other than a circle) that would be represent a network? I dont have any suggestions. :) Perhaps you would?

Thanks for giving me the heads up. Which entry(s) are you referring to - all or specific one?
I will be able to give you a better idea in a few hours.

Hi,
From your entries, we have shortlisted #103.
I have a few suggestions:
1. remove HR from the circle
2. remove the slogan
3. change the text to either HR EXCHANGE or HRExchange. Actually, it would be nice to the variation of each.
4. can you give me a variation that has the blue in your circle radiating different shades of blue in to out; or out to in?

Hi Christian,
We are now in top 5 mode. Here are some criteria we would like you to keep in mind as you review, fine tune and refine your entry.
1. the logo MUST have the colour blue. However, you are free to choose the shade you feel is appropriate.
2. the second colour should be what you feel is appropriate based on my contest brief. It does NOT have to be yellow.
3. you have the choice of font-type to use. My preference is something that is blocky/chunky so that the logo does not fade out in distance.
4. your entry must be able to look good/strong regardless the position of the icon and wordings i.e. left-ring (as it is right now) or top-bottom (as it was before) or just the icon. Please show me variations of all.
5. your logo must be strong in colour AND monotone. A variation in monotone would be good.
6. your logo must be able to be applied in any form or medium without fading out.
7. your logo must be able to flexible in its use if I were to expand HR Exchange either in type of products or locations. For e.g. see: http://www.logoblog.org/fedex-logo.php

Hello,

all design are vector designs, witch means that all your above points are checked...(talking about all entries in the contest, not just mine...

The logo colors, as you FedEx example is changeable and recommend to change the colors regarding to your marketing materials, so that you achieve the best result.

from my experience i can tell you that if using a darker image for branding, a simple white version of the logo stands better than the colored version, even if the colored look's better.- as it gives a classic/old on the market feeling...

I used this type because it gives a strong feeling and will be easy to read...

in my first option ranked as # now, it symbolize in my opinion a table and in my last one entries is more dynamic and also embeds the network feeling

I'm also thinking to add a world map to the inner circle....to give it a world wide approach...

Hi Christian,
Please show me the variation with the world map (focus on Asia) in the inner circle as one variation - using #103 as a reference point for text/font (without the slogan).
And, I would also like #103 without the slogan.
