MonkeyDoLogo Design Contest

I like what you have done here with #12. I like to the comment bubble.... great idea. I would like to see 2 changes to review. (1) Can yo show me a few different fonts? I am not loving the "MonkeyDo" font. (2) Can you show me without the light bulb? Still thinking about #9 and #8

Ok Nick! Will be back with the updates. Thanks!

Best,

Ryo

I think the yellow sun/circle makes it a bit difficult to see the comment bubble. I would either change the color of it or remove it. #22 and #20 look better with that font. Feel free to show further variations of those 2 with different fonts, colors, suit color, etc. Still trying to figure out if we want to go with more animated or abstract. More fun or corporate. This is a great design though - clearly shows a hard working smart monkey.

Okay nick, I guess I will try another version with more corporate feel. Maybe still with a laptop with the suit, but in different version.

Thanks for keep giving me direction.

Best,

Ryo

I just want you to have a great chance to win. If we go with a fun illustration, you have probably the best chance of winning. If we go with a more corporate look, I'd like you to also have a good shot as you are clearly a very good designer. BTW -- you are free to use the "!" in the tagline if you think it works. My comment about the period was for people that left it blank. Great work!

Thanks nick! I'm doing my best for you! Will be back soon with another proposal

Hi nick, I'm back. Here's the new version of the smart working monkey with more corporate feel than carntoony feel. Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Best,
Ryo

Very nice! Show me #47 and #48 but with no comment bubble -- put the tagline under the name. Just want to see it. This looks great!

Thanks nick! Glad you like it. There you go #60 #62

Here's another one #63 #64
Just trying to simplified the logo using the monkey's head only. Still looks happy, smart and success. What do you think?

I love #62 and #60. Moving it to 1st place. Need to add a period after "happen". Also show me how it will look on white background.

awesome! There you go nick! #68 #69

I will be back with more refined colors for the monkey. Thanks for keeping me at the 1st rank!

wow you are really a very good designer. you have given me several designs that I would consider potential winners. I really like #148. It may be good enough to win just like that but I would like to see it with some color in it. Can you show me some variations with colors? And then show it to me on the yellow background and also a white background.

Also while I would easily put 2-3 of your designs in the top 5, I'm only going to put 1 to allow 5 designers up there. Thank you.

Thanks for the words, nick! Well as I said before, I'm doing the best I could to win the contest :)
As for the top 5 mode, actually although there are 3 designs at top 5 with the same designer, it wont effect to the others. The designers at 6th, 7th and 8th still able to submit their designs, because they are still included as top 5 ranked designers. So this mode is for top 5 ranked designers, not top 5 ranked entries.

Will be back soon with the other versions. Thanks!

i like the extra shading and gradient effects you added to #151 but not the checkmark --- too busy with that. remove the checkmark on that one.

ah -- that is great to hear then. I do have one more suggestion. On design #151, i would like to see how it would look with replacing the man with a monkey. On #22 you have a monkey - i wonder what it would look like to have the monkey's face move over to the new design?

Well actually that was monkey face for #151 but I after I read your comment I feel it's too human face lol
okay nick, will be right back.

Thanks!

how about on #148 you make the DO green?

Hi nick, here's the updated version with monkey face #174
Let me know what you think and thanks for keep giving me direction.

thanks for all the updates -- you have been really great! I have one final comment -- and it can be done now or later.... the hand on the monkey on #174 has a brown patch on top. You think it may be better if we made that like hair? but just subtle hair there? or maybe a little lighter like you did on #34?

there you go #176
btw, from the top ranked entries it seems that you more interested with more simplified monkey's head and emphasizing the sales chart. Is that the direction you would like to see? If it so, I will try another version with that approach. What do you think?

here's another one #179 #180
Let me know what you think

Thanks!

Okay. If that's not good enough, how about this #185? I made the monkey looks like doing a presentation to his client, explaining what monkey do is. And as you can see from the monkey pose, his right hand pointing to the audience to represent : "You Envision It", while his left hand showing a perfect sales chart to represent : "We make it happen!"

I like both #185 and #174. Could you play around with the colors a bit so they tie in to the colors on the website? http://www.monkeydo.com/comp.html

the brown is fine -- but i'd like to see if we can tie in some of the other website colors. it's pretty much between you and bomber at this point.

Thanks nick! Will be back soon with the other color variation.

Hello -- this should be my final request form you. Can you please give me #185 with the following color changes.

- replace the RED arrow with a GREEN arrow to match the green on the website comp
-replace the DO to the same GREEN
-replace the slash under "happen" to a GREEN
-Match the blue in the bar graph to the same gradient blue in design #83

Show me this on white background and also the background from the website comp.

I only wnated the DO in green -- not the MONKEY. I was thinking we can leave the MONKEY in brown. However, after looking at it, I'm not sure those colors really work here huh? I really like your design and want to pick your design but I want to be sure it will look OK on our website. Do you have any thoughts or ideas?

Oops, my bad. Sorry. I've submitted the updates. I've simplified it by removing the oval shape, and cut the monkey's body and the sales graph little bit in order to make the logo more balanced and emphasizing the pointing hand and the arrow with the sales graph. I think it's looks much better know. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for considering to pick my design Nick! I really hope that I could win this contest since I've lost at talking toddler contest :)

Any revision still welcome!

Best,

Ryo

Please show me #164 in a white background. I am rooting for you!!!
