Right now, 20 and 19 are my favorite. I like the mushrooms the best. I would like to see those where MONDO is larger/more pronounced than mushrooms, perhaps a different font as well.
Here are some other variations for you based on your notes.
Let me know if I am headed in the right direction...any alterations may be made. Didn't know if you would want a script on your subheading...I can try some serif fonts as well if you like...I was just trying to keep the design clean and simple for you.
Sure...to help me select something more to what you are looking for...do you want to reposition it? Do you want to stay with a script?...do you want something more raw and brush stroke or something a little more elegant?
I'll work on some possibilities for you in the meantime and if you could get back with me on this that will help also.
These are fonts...I can make these bolder if you like. You probably noticed I am using a little more free style letters...it feels like that is what you are asking for in your contest brief...let me know what you think
Here's one ...was thinking it adds a little depth to the design as well as another font on 'mushrooms' ...so many possibilities that could happen with this same design.
Our favorite is #62, we like the H and the N connecting. However the stroke should be of the same width. Also, could you play around with the colors? It needs to be bolder in colors, the yellow gets washed out by the white background.
Could you also make a copy of this in grey scale as well?
We do not like the fonts just yet. Keep playing with serif fonts. We would like to see more variation in fonts, the previous ones are not different enough. Could you send us the list of fonts you have used thus far?
MONDO is always capitalized. Mushrooms does not necessarily need to be, play around and see what works well.
Here are some variations. Your name would be difficult in a script because it is all caps and most aren't clearly visible on the character forms on scripts.
The serif font on this is called Crimson
The scripts are Ruthie, Scriptina and Lover's Quarrel.
I added a drop shadow in order not to lose the lightness of the mushroom but the additional drop shadow in a richer color give the impression of multiples which implies 'plural' mushrooms.
I will check back with you tomorrow evening, if any of these need tweaking or they give you other ideas for me to try for you.
an added note....when 'mushrooms' in a san serif or serif font, the letter H doesn't always line up and to adjust the center and need to add thickness to 'mushrooms' to compensate for this makes dominant over MONDO... I'll show you if you like when I return....
We do not like the double colors on the mushroom, stick with a darker yellow or orange. #77 is nice with the big loop, but we really don't like either font.
I am uploading various different font possibilities...please let me know if any of these work...you can interchange any part of these to create a new logo.
I will be here for a while and watch for your response or I will check back in the morning. Thank you! Teresa
I noticed you haven't commented on the last entries I sent you. Would you see if there are any fonts that you might like if these still don't work for you at fontsquirrel.com
I will be away teaching for the afternoon but will check back in about an hour before I leave. If I don't hear from you then I'll check back for your notes this evening when I return.
Wanted to let you know regardless whether it is done now or afterwards, if there is anything you still aren't happy with on the logo I can work on that for you, changing to other fonts, tweaking or rearranging the illustration part of the logo etc. I want your logo to be something that you identify with.
I don't know if you are receiving these messages.....but I wanted you to know I will be away teaching all day on Monday and will check back with you in the evening.
