Hi, this is great! However there is a misspelling... "MiniStries" you have miniTries.
Can we see this on a light colored background?

Thank you very much! Glad that you like it. I've corrected the typo and showed the design on a light background. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do. Thank you!

Thanks! Can you resubmit the one on the navy background with the corrected spelling?

No problem, I just submitted the new version. Thank you!

It would be really cool if you could somehow incorporate a cross, sun/light, and perhaps other christian symbols into the mark.

Hi, can we see #39 in a san serif font?

Sorry I didn't have a chance to submit much yesterday. I will be able to today because the No. 1 spot is allowed to submit during judging.

#78 and #79 are two variations based on your feedback. #78 is a more sans serif font and both incorporate a cross into the word ministries instead of an uppercase T. I'll continue to think on some more ideas and ways to incorporate different graphics. Thank you!

oooh I like the incorporation of the cross. Can you do #78 with a thicker font? beef it up a little? I really like the thickness of the serif font you used. Thanks for the great work!!

Also, for #65, can you look at this photo:

See how there is a cross-shaped figure implied using negative space (white space). I'd love to see this same concept inside your square using radial lines, sort of how they did it in this photo: http://logopond.com/logos/99b91722178237a704e40d6437dc603f.png
except I'd like to see more radial lines, perhaps like the sun's rays.

Here's another example that uses negative space to "imply" the existence of a masculine figure/cross shape.

Thanks for the feedback. I was having a hard time finding a sans font that I liked as much as the serif one, so I converted it to a sans font. What do you think?

In #80 I tried to mimic the negative space logos you sent. Is this kind of what you were thinking? I didn't incorporate the man image, only because it feels a little limiting since you deal with more than just individuals. But I can if you like. I'm going to continue working on some more dealing with negative space though. I'll have something soon I hope. Thank you!

Oh and I can get ride of the second cross in #80 if you feel like it's a bit repetitive.

#80 is a good start, however with the box around the cross it doesn't use negative space, just a white cross... does that make sense?
It probably wouldn't look as good without the box, but what if the bottom of the cross "bled" into the background color somehow, meaning there are no lines or differentiations of color between the cross and the background.

I look forward to your next concepts! Thank you!

also, the yellow gets a bit washed out on a light background... we don't know yet if the logo will always be used on either a dark or light colored background. Do you have any ideas on how to address this?

#83 and #84 are better executed I think. How do you like them?

As far as the yellow, I made it a little more golden in color & adding the brown into it helps it pop out a bit more. I think if you were to switch it too a different color you'd lose that sunshine/successful feel to it. Do you agree? It might not look AS GOOD as the dark background version, but it's still works I think.

Thank you!

New Concept 1

LIFE -- "an explosion of life"
The dot in the "i" in Life: The inner circle of the dot is white and the outer edge of the circle is yellow. Then rippling outward from the dot in the "i" are half-circles on each side of the dot showing light eminating from the dot.

BUILDERS -- "a process of building"
2-3 lines (straight, thin) travelling through the word. So the word "builders" looks like it's built using layers. These lines could be connected somehow to the "i" in life" but if you can think of another way to integrate them then please do so.

New Concept #2
Same as above but instead of the dot in the "i", Let's see a starburst behind the word life. #26 has a starburst.

#84 can we please see the logo with the 4 burst shapes coming together in the center? So the cross shape is eliminated.
Thanks!
