Hi Pam!
I really like this logo. I wonder if you could give me a few different options on fonts?
Thanks!! Kate

Also, could the blue go more to the teal side. Like the color in the other ranked logos?

Hi Kate,

Yes, I can definitely give you more font options. And, I'll change the blue to be more on the teal side.

Thanks for the feedback!

#15 - changed the fonts; revised the color of "BOOKS"

#16 - changed the color of the girl/book silhouette to match that of the word "BOOKS"

More options to come! :)

Hi Kate

Would you like to see more font options? Do you prefer serif, sans serif or script for your name? Serif or sans serif for "BOOKS"?

Please advise; I'll provide different options according to your feedback.

Thanks!

Hi Pam!
I like the updated teal color for books, but prefer grey for the silouette! I like a thicker font which is why some of the updated fonts where out for me.

Hi Kate!

Thanks so much for the feedback! I'll revise the color of 'BOOKS' and provide options with thicker fonts.

May I ask what the difference is between #29 and 30?
10 years ago
 
Logo Designer
Sure! #29 has a grey drop shadow on the book, and #30 has the teal blue drop shadow.

In looking at them now, I see that somehow I turned on the layer with the layer with the crown instead of the princess tiara. I'll resubmit #29 with the the tiara. If you like the teal blue drop shadow just let me know and I can submit that too.

#32 - replaced the crown on #29.

#32 is a slight variation of #8; I enlarged your name, and used a different bolder font for BOOKS.

Please let me know what you'd like me to revise/tweak. I'll adjust or add whatever you request.

Thanks!

Hi Pam! I am just trying to choose which one! Did you have one that was blue rather than grey for the book/girl? I'm trying to find that one.

Also, what is charge for two if I can not decide? I was thinking I would want to alternate between grey shadow and blue shadow, especially for putting logo on a backdrop. I would use both logos like a pattern. Please let me know your thoughts. I appreciate your help, your designs are amazing!

Hi Pam!
Sorry, I did find the blues! Would it be possible to create a semi circle over number #19 that says "confidence, imagination and dreams"? Like the "rainbow effect" you have in entry #41, but rather than Kate Butler Books on top, it would say Confidence, Imagination and Dreams (not sure if all lower case looks better or not?)

Also, is all blue book/girl the same blue in all? The blue is entry #16 looks brighter to me than in entry #19. Can you confirm if they are same or not?

Right now I like Entry #37 and Entry #19.

I would like to see #19 with rainbow effect over top, and also "Books" on #19 to match "Books" on #37, so making it a bit thicker/bolder.

Lastly, would it be possible to see the book/girl in pink also? So I can see difference in blue, pink and grey?

Thank you!

Hi Kate,
There is no extra charge for the other color version since they are just variations of the same logo. #30 has the blue shadow. I just need to put the tiara on that one.
Thanx for your interest!
Pam

Thanks! Ok, I see. I was not as interested in the blue shadow. More interested in the blue logo. Where the book and girl are all blue. No shadow though. Sorry I didn't communicate that better! Not sure what to call the book/girl??

Sorry I didn't see your comment before your second-to-last comment. I checked your comments on my phone, and didn't see that one.

I can do all the variations you requested above; but, since your contest is in judging mode, only the designer in first place can submit.

If you want to move me back to first so I can submit this evening, I will work up the variations when I get home from work.

Thanks!

Hi Katie,

Here are the options you requested:

#43 - this is the revision of #19. I made BOOKS bolder, and added the arced slogan over the girl/book

#44 - same as $43, but changed the girl/book graphic to pink and the slogan to the teal blue

#45 - same as #44 but I changed the book 'cover' to teal for contrast.

I checked the color of the girl/book in #16, and it's the same color as the submissions. I'm not sure why that one looks different.

Let me know if I missed anything, or if there is any other option you'd like me to submit.

Thanks for the opportunity!

Hi Pam!
I don't know if it's easier to email me directly for communication, but if if so my email is katebutlerbooks@gmail.com!! Thank you SO much for making these updates!! Would it be possible to see one last update? I wanted to see the font of #37 in entry #43. Thank you so so much. These are so lovely.

Hi Kate,

#46 - this entry is the font of #37 placed in #43

My apologies for the delay. I was trying to finish up my taxes and didn't check email until now.

Let me know if you need to see any other options.

Bye for now. Heading to bed - have to go to work tomorrow.

Thanks!

Hi Pam!
THANK YOU THANK YOU! These are wonderful. I like #37, #46 and #44. So what do we do?

Logo Designer
Hi Kate,

I'm not sure what you mean. #46 and #44 are pretty much the same, just different color arrangement and the font of your name is different.

#37 is kind of the odd man out, because it's formatted differently, and I don't think it would work as well with the arced slogan, if you want that feature. That said, I do like #37 as well.

If you happen to decide on one of my designs, we can always tweak it in the approval stage.

Thanks so much!

Pam

BTW - we aren't allowed to communicate outside of LogoTournament until the contest is complete.

Hi Pam!!
Whoops! Sorry, I just thought email would be easier, because I do not get these notifications right away. No worries!!!

Ok, yes, I wanted two different versions. That is why I was hoping for #37 as wel (without arch)l. I just don't know how that works since I'm suppose to pick one. I guess if I had to pick one, I would have to go with #44.

When I make a selection, do you then just email me the file? And is that when you can email me the different color variations? Thank you so very much for your help. It is greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you, Kate

Hi Kate,

When you make your selection for the winner, the final files get uploaded through LogoTournament, so you can view them and approve them. The file we upload for approval are an EPS and a jpg. You can still ask for tweaks in this approval stage. Once you approve the file, we are required to email you the rest of the files you might need, which would include a black and white version, a transparent PNG for the web, as well as the color variations you want. I can also send #37 without the arch, since it is the same graphic and not a completely different design.

Hope this makes sense!

We can also Message through LogoTournament - you should get immediate notification. There's a button on my profile page that says "send a private message".

Thanks!

Ok, that sounds good. I will select #44 and we can discuss color variation and I would also love #37, whatever you can send with this one. Thank you very much for you beautiful designs and also help navigating around this site! You have been very helpful. Making selection now!
