We really like Entry #7. Might we please see it with a white background and other potential color schemes? Likewise, we'd welcome any variations on it.
We most like the three-part mountain (as the client's major property consists of a huge silver vein that sandwiches a larger gold deposit, as well). So your symbolic imagery is spot-on.
I'd also like to see a logo with the "LTD" to the right of --- and much smaller than --- the "HYGRADE GOLD COMPANY"; and with the company's slogan (Responsible Resource Extraction) included as part of the underline (where the "LTD" now appears).
Please let us see Entries #24 and #25 with "LTD" in silver (not gold), and with "Responsible Resource Extraction" in a bit fancier (meaning, less block style) font.
Please also let us see Entry #18 with "Responsible Resource Extraction" in the center (rather than on the right).
We really like Entry #7; let's please see it with a bit less blocky font.
We LOVE Entry #7. That's the one we'd like to finalize from. We'd like to entertain a less blocking font for the company's name, though. And two other questions: Might we see that design with a translucent or clear background? Also, might we see both the black background and translucent / clear background with a frame around the logo itself?
LOVE the new Entries #31 and 32. What I did a poor job of communicating, though, is that we would like to see what the logo looks like if the entire box is in a frame (like a portrait on a wall).
And maybe it's not the font style that is too blocky; perhaps it'd be more easy to read if we spaced out the letters in the company's name a bit more?
Designers cannot provide personal email address to the Contest Holder before the contest complete. Apologize for the inconvenience, but that's the rule here. Maybe you can attach to the contest.
We're there. The winner is Entry #51. Question, though: Might we please see a glossier version? Is it possible to make the gold more "gold" and the silver more "silver". In other words, is there a way to make the logo brighter?
