I'm sorry, I realized I hadn't been giving enough feedback. I really appreciate all the submissions and I'm hoping to help steer in the right direction. Thank you for your patience - this is my org. first logo/branding effort so I'm a bit naive...

Point 1: Like the font used in #21
Point 2: Like the layout of the illustration, name and acronym in #21 but I think I like the illustration positioned on the left hand side of the text like #35
Point 3: Like the use of both acronym and name
Point 4: Like synergies and symbolism in illustrations ie. #21, #35, #32
Point 5: Like the action and movement of illustration in #46 but it's a little "sharp" sorry - not sure how to describe it...
Point 6: Like the coloring in #21, #24, #32.
Point 7: I like the idea in illustration of #35 but I think we have to stay away from anything that seems or could be mistaken as "celtic" or something like that - that's what it struck me as; "hard". But maybe it's the color, I'm not sure.

This is hard to describe but we do both treatment (for individuals) like in a medical office type and consulting in organizations. For example, one of the reasons I like #21 so far in the contest is that I think the font in #21 captures the consulting and the illustration in it captures the treatment aspect. I hope that makes sense.

Thank you everyone for your great work thus far. I'm glad you're participating.

dear Ch
You can leave individual comments for designers by clicking on their respective logos thats when the designers receive your comments by email- thanks

I like the faint vertical line that separates the illustration and text (as in #53 and #54)

Hello again.
These are really getting good. In seeing your designs, I like the color schemes demonstrated in #71 and #21 and I like the typeface/font as in #57 and #21.

Hi Nicole. Here are some guidelines on completing your project...

How to Rank and Thank Designers:
When it comes time for final rankings, designers appreciate when you choose the top three CONCEPTS (as opposed to variations of the same design) for the gold, silver and bronze awards. If you want to rank two different concepts by the same designer in the top three, that's fine.
Also, rank as many entries as possible, because designers get points added to their overall site standing for each blue ribbon they get.

This is how points are distributed:

1st place - 50 points
2nd place - 20 points
3rd place - 10 points
4-6th place - 5 points
7-10 place - 3 points

After that, each ranked entry gets one point for the designer. Nobody will be insulted by being ranked last, the points are still good! So if you pull some entries out of the "Not Interested" group and give them a rank, the designer gets some benefit from entering your contest.

Hope that's helpful, lots of contest holders don't realize this and most are glad to know. It's a good way to thank designers who don't win the contest prize, but who worked very hard to offer you lots of options to choose from for a great logo.
