We like these very much. Some notes; *we like the neutral colour outer oval as in #2 better than a white outer oval *we would like the dog to be facing out towards the viewer and perhaps a more shaggy, or fluffy dog *the lighthouse-- although I put it in red in my eg. to give pop of color to the logo, we believe it is more accurate for our area to have a white, lighthouse with 2 or three horizontal stripes of red colour * perhaps a only slightly less intense purple for the mountains and, some indication of snow at the tops *there is a white circle behind the mountains -perhaps if it were sun yellow it would work better for us
*I wonder if we could experiment with the shape a little. Perhaps increase the width of the outer oval so that there is a wider space a the top. Also, maybe not use an offset oval shape at all, more traditionally with the outer oval being of equal width all around.
Thanks again! We look forward to seeing changes if you choose...
Sorry for late reply. Thanks for your feedback about my works. Well, i'm outside right now. But in hours to go, i'll be back to my PC and working the revision as your feedback. Thank you for your patience!
the more i look - you have it very close.. you are ahead of the game on your depiction of maine!!- with the changes above -- read all of the comments. ( the white circle in background - might be better removed than changed to yellow as in my first comment - worried the yellow might detract from the very pleasing depiction of the maine scenery
I just dont feel the incorporation of the dog is successful, - again face viewer somehow.. its really my only real problem with the design.
also try a border that is the same width all around?
Sorry for making you wait for a long time. But now, i promise you..i will revise it and make it as your direction above. I will finish the design in hour to go, and show you the new entries. Thank you for sending me your last comment.
Hi Carol, here are all entries : #42 #43 #44 #45 #46 #47
I have revised all your correction here. But i'm trying to show for your option the possibility in yellow sun situation. The main different part among those logos are : 1. The version without Sun 2. The version with white sun 3. The version with yellow sun.
And about the oval layout i have provided here into the two version; 1st Version :. With super narrow on the top side for the arch line 2nd Version :. With little wider on the top side for the arc line
I have tried with all balance size for the oval arch, but it's not quite good. There are so much blank space, and the Dog not quite blended to the design. That's why i make the little wider or the 2nd version.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate how you are working so closely with us.
.SKY: like it best with no yellow sun/sky.. or white sun
LIGHTHOUSE: might like it bettr if you remove the black 'windows", and either remove the bottom red stripe and/or make the remaining red stripes a little broader or like a barber pole -
DOG: can you try another type of dog, we like this better than the original but perhaps something more on the lines of a bigger breed - like golden doodle or golden retriever?
MOUNTAINS i wonder how it would feel if the green hills in the background became more purplish mountain lke and hte foreground one a darker green.
IF these are too many changes , let me know... i am really trying to balance giving you freedom and figuring out what we want... I hope you understand..
Just to let you know we are about to end the contest. Your design was a favourite early on, and we thank you for making the changes we asked for. In the end, we opted for a different look.
