Thank you for your entry.

As you can see I really like it!

I welcome any further variations on this design you wish to submit, as well as new consepts.

Have a great day,
Marcus.

Hello,

I'm happy you liked that one, thank you.
Here are a couple of other looks using different fonts, and a couple using a different idea for the image.
If you want to see different colors or lettering, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #84)

I'm sorry, I was re-reading your comments and I had missed the note about the little guy.
I'll work some up with him in it as well so you can see how that looks.

Thank you,
Tim

Thanks for the latest changes.

Can I have a look at # 96and #97, with the font style from #84.

Also, I really like the font from designs 92, 116 and 54.

In design #97, can we drop the blue wave and place the slogan in it's place.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Hello,

Certainly, I'll be happy to work those up so you can see what they look like.
I get going right now.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

These are the revisions you were interested in seeing:

#96 and #97 using the font from #84 are: #131 and #132

#97 with the slogan replacing the space of the blue wave is #133

I used the other font you mentioned liking (Myriad) on #134 and #135.

I am also working on one with a color gradient in "Life is Great".
If you are interested in seeing any mix and match or something in a different color, please don't hesitate to let me know as I'd be happy to change things.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

This is one that I've been working up through the day.
I realize you'll need a horizontal layout, but I wanted you to be able to see the flow and colors in the sphere and this one shows a bigger version of it..
I'll submit the horizontal version shortly.
I can make the little man stand out more, as well if you would like to see that.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #162)

Hello,

i wanted to do one where the little man stood out in front of the sphere.
A 3-D angle on him and contrast really helps do that, I think.

Thanks for your consideration,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #170)

These latest designs are fantastic!

Could we please make the colors and the little guy just a bit brighter in #163?

Thank you, Marcus

Hello,

Thank you very much, I'm glad you like them.
As requested, here is #163 with brighter colors.
If I've made them too bright, please don't hesitate to let me know and I'll move back the other way.

I'll lighten up #171 a bit as well so you can see what that looks like.

Thanks again,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #172)

Hello,

Here is #171 lightened up a bit.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #173)

Hello,

As another option, here's #163 with just the little man brighter, and the orange and green in the sphere just a touch brighter.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #175)

If #172 is supposed to be the brighter version of #163 I can't see it. It actually looks lighter.

If I'm confused here please let me know, and if not could we brighten a bit.

Thank you,
Marcus.

Hi Marcus,

I'm sorry, I think I made it too subtle. I lightened up the oranges and greens in both the circle and the lettering in #172 compared to #163, and made the little man brighter.

In #175 the only thing I changed was to make the circle and the little man a little brighter.

I'll take #172 and brighten it more so the contrast between it and #163 is easy to see.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,
This one should be noticeably brighter than #163.
With the slight revisions on these last few, please don't hesitate to "not interest" ones to clean things up.

Thanks again,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #176)

Hi Marcus,

Sorry, I think I misunderstood brighter as lighter.
I'll take #175 and add more contrast and make the colors brighter so it looks more like #171.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

Sorry again about my confusion.

This is #175 with deeper color and more contrast like #171 has.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #179)

Hello,

I had one more variation to show you which takes the little man from #171 and uses him in #179.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #181)

I like this latest design!

Can we make the globe pictoral bigger like that in #179.

Thank you very much.

Hi Marcus,

Absolutely. I'll have it submitted shortly.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

As requested, here is #181 with the globe the same size as the one in #179.

Thanks again,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #185)

Hello,

I know the preview images are a little small, and I wanted you to be able to see the latest globe clearly so this is just a layout that allows a bigger view of it.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #187)

Hello,

A couple of small additions to #179 and #185 as another option.
I added a slight border to "Life is Great" on both to make the words stand out a bit more with depth.

Thanks again,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #214 and #215)

Hello,

Just as another option, here they are with "Life is Great" in all green.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #216 and #217)

Hello,

This is #185 with the little guy changed to include the shading from the image you provided- LittleGuyLogo # 1.jpg . The colors are deepened to go better with the contrast of the darker colors in his arms and legs.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #218)

Hello,

Lastly, here are #179 and #185 with the colors made even deeper with more contrast added.
I think that covers all the variations I had wanted to show you.

Thanks again,
Tim

( This comment references Entry #221 and #222 )

You are awesome!
Your designs just keep getting better.
Your real and consistent effort, combined with your great vision and thorough communication will take you far.

Much Thanks,
Marcus

Tim,

How about putting the little guy from #218 into #185.

Thank you,
Marcus.

Hello Marcus,

I'm afraid I will need to remove the ones that have the little guy in white in the globe.
After some discussion with fellow designers, I think they are too similar to another designers concept and it isn't fair or right for me to use them.

I'm going to keep the brown, 3-D little guy ones as I think they are different and try to come up with some new ideas for colors in the globe with the white colored little guy since I don't think anyone else is using that.

Sorry for the trouble, but it is the right thing for me to do.
I should have been more conscious of other's work as I worked through the process from my original design.

Tim

Tim,

This is quite troubling, as my #1 ranked one you removed was quite likely to be my choice.

I feel that your rendition on the white liftte guy in the globe was very different from any others used.I found your design here to by very cutting edge for what had been presented before you.

I am removing the other designer from my consideration entirely, in the hopes that you will put the ones you removed back up.

I appreciate your integrity. Perhaps the line is too narrowly defined here.

Realistically, many designers are using circles, the same font and colors. I find it hard to see how a person looking for their perfect design can accomplish their goal unless the designers are allowed to put there own play to very similar concepts.

I also welcome whatever else you come up with.

Thank you,
Marcus.

Hi Marcus,

I'm really sorry about the problem.
I would ask that you don't remove anyone from consideration as I won't be able to use that design regardless of whether the person is active or not.
I think the little guy was different as well, but the combination of the elements and colors made it too close as far as concept.
It really was entirely my fault as we are supposed to present significantly different designs and in working through mine, I missed doing that.

I will certainly work on using different colors and so on, and hope that I can come up with one you like.

Take care,
Tim

O.K. Tim.

Hello,

I'm going to try a direction change going with sky and sea.
Thanks for understanding, and again, I apologize for missing that.

Take care,
Tim

Hello,

I went back to one of my first entries, #87, and incorporated the sun, land and sea theme with the two colored text from it.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #237)

And one more with the text color changed to blue.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #241)

Your creativity and vision just keeps coming out. No obstacles only opportunities to become more. Yes!

Could we place the little guy that has been shaded in a bit into #'s 238 & 239.

Also, please give me a look at #'s 238, 239, 236 and 237 with out the slight border around Life is Great!

In #'s 236 & 239 can we create the same spacing of the various elements within the globe as in #'s 237 & 238.

I like the darker blue for "Real Solutions For Your Life And Business" that is present in #222.

Can we find a wat to make "Real Solutions" stand out more. In other words, Life Is Great! is about Real Solutions.

Thanks Tim. We to go!

Marcus.

Hello,

It's the little guy, white and in 3-D like the brown one, over sky, sea and land.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #243)

Hi,

Just saw your comment and will get to work on those.

Thank you,
Tim

Hello,

Working on the requests..
First one is #238 using the saded little guy.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #247)

Here's #239 with the shaded little guy, though I had to lighten the water a bit as the dark water made it a bit hard to see him.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #248)

Here's #243 without the border on the words.

(This comment references Entry #249)

OK, here's #237 without the border on the text.

(This comment references Entry #250)

and #236 without the border around the words....

(This comment references Entry #251)

Here's #236 with the same spacing as #237...

(This comment references Entry #252)

..here's the shaded little guy with the spacing fixed....

(This comment references Entry #253)

..and the non-shaded, brown little guy with the spacing fixed...

(This comment references Entry #254)

Hello,

Here is one way, a simple one though it works, to make "Real Solutions" work.

Thank you,
Tim

(This comment references Entry #255)

Along with these last changes I requested and you are working on, my website designer asked for two things.

1. Can we make the little guy look less distorted and more true to original design. Perhaps leaving his legs where they are in the design and raising his head into the sky more as if watching the sunset, or swimming in the sunset. With this, can we make the swirl in the chest in both the white and brown little guy more clear.

2. Can we make the colors, particularly the oranges and the greens fit into the webisite color scheme a bit more. That link is in my contest link if you need it.

Thank you very much,
Marcus.

Hi Marcus,

I need to take a break for a little bit and will work those up when I return.

If I may, and if it's no trouble for you, I would like to remove some of the other older designs I had that just used sun and land with the little guy inside.
Though the 3-D little guy does make them different enough, it's close and I just don't want any more hiccups.
The 4 in there are all ranked above 13th place, but I wanted to check with you first.
It would be #185 , #187 , #222 , and #223.
I think it's safe to leave them in if needed, but I just didn't want to worry about it.

The new ones have no problem at all.

Thank you,
Tim
