Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest:

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage more participation.
~~ Ranking designs daily will also keep your contest from getting cluttered.
~~ The more feedback you provide, the better results you are going to see.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested"
~~ Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation.
~~ Ranking is a non-monitary means of showing apprecaition for designers hard work.
~~ Designers earn points for ranked designs. We like to earn points.

We'd like to see some colors a bit darker ... and are adjusting the logo design slider accordingly. Remember the logo usage: from business cards and letterhead ... to yard, and office, signage. For exterior we need signage that is eye catching and easily readable from a distance.

We have added a NEW image to our sample image catalog which you can access in the external links we have provided. We are primarily interested in a "summit" logo now.

We asked you to change direction with design subsequent to posting a second artwork example (accessible via our outside links noted in the contest information.) "Tourcat" was on the right track with early submissions of layout #2. Sorry we changed direction on you guys and gals, but we made the change early on. AT this point #'s 27 and 13 are headed in the right direction.

Please only use two colors for design: white and primary color.

Thank you.

You guys and gals are doing great! Thank you. It's going to be tough in the end I'm sure.

not when the top 5 designs are from the same designer

We are seeing some interesting submissions from many of you and appreciate everyone's efforts. As we continue the contest please remember the following:

We are looking for a classic logo with clean lines, two colors ONLY (ex: blue and white) that can be reversed. (See currently ranking #4 and #5.)

Your graphical element should also be simple, but classic, with soft edges. Nothing hard or industrial.

Do not break the type face with any graphical element.

We are pleased with the variety of ideas we are seeing, and are monitoring the contest throughout the day each and every day of the contest. We are trying to provide constructive feedback at the same time.

You guys (and gals) are awesome! What a wide display of talent and ideas! We've still got about two days to work with ... hit us with your best shot, And if you have been holding back on submitting ... don't wait!

This is a contest for sure! Amazing variety of submissions and ideas. Keep them coming ... we are monitoring the contest by the hour.

The contest is slated to end tomorrow. Time for everyone interested to pull out all the stops and hit us with the best you've got.

We have had some designers contact us requesting a contest extension so they can have time to refine their submissions. Since it is Memorial Day weekend here in the United States: we have decided to make accomodations by extending the contest by FIVE days. This means we will continue accepting and reviewing entries up until at least TUESDAY of next week, and perhaps as late as WEDNESDAY.

We would like everyone to narrow their focus to logos incorporating a "mountain" motif, with variations on the letter "M". Please look at our #1 choice at this point in the contest, and proceed accordingly.

Do NOT submit logos with shading/color fades. Logos must be two SOLID colors ONLY. For example: blue, and white. Please review ALL of the contest parameters before submitting logos.

A lot of you are submitting "cute" or "fancy" logos. That is NOT what we are looking for.

We've just opened our office back up, and will be reviewing your most recent submissions. We hope to select a winner today, or tomorrow.

All of you are ... incredible. What an across the board display of talent. We have run out of time today but will sort new entries and begin ranking all tomorrow afternoon.
