Architects and SchemersLogo Design Contest

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses:

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage participation.
~~ Rank and re-rank a variety of designs to get a variety of new entries.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed! Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: https://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Ranking designs daily will also keep your contest from getting cluttered.
~~ The more feedback you provide, the better results you will see.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested".
~~ Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation.
~~ Ranking is a non-monetary means of showing appreciation for the Designers' hard work.
~~ Designers earn points for ranked designs. We like to earn points.

In the creative brief we selected orange as the color we'd like to see in the logo however we're open to other colors this early in the contest. Although our name is whimsical we want our logo convey strength, confidence and innovation. Top notch user interface design is no joke - we're solving major business issues for fortune 500 clients. We chose our name to stand out from the rest however the service we provide is highly skilled and valuable - we'd like our logo to give our clients confidence in us. Thanks for participating!

Admin Note: Client was forced to change the name of their company. Please use the company name

>>>> Architects and Schemers <<<<

until admin can change the name.

Hello to everyone who submitted a design for I have a scheme. Just wanted to apologize for the mid contest name change. We felt confident that we would be able to buy the URL for a resonable price but the owner got really greedy in the end so we decided to cut bait and go with our second choice name - Architects and Schemers. Sorry for any inconvenience!

Contrary to what I wrote in the creative brief, I don't think orange is working! Please explore RICH, DARK COLORS OTHER THAN ORANGE. Sorry to have misled you in the brief but I thought orange was going to be our color - after seeing it in a handful of designs, it's not.

Thanks!

One last note for today...

We're concerned about the public associating our company name with building architecture rather than website architecture. If you're creating an icon please do not make it look like a building - we will shy away from anything that makes us look like a building architect.
