Hiya

Thanks for your submissions. You are up there as one of our favourites - However, so far no one has really cracked pulling through the idea of 'kindness'/'kind things'. I've sought out a few more logos that we love the feel of and so maybe you'd be keen to keep at it a little longer with these as some inspiration. We are liking the more gritty feel of some you'll find in the links below.

We also have four potential pay-off lines we are deciding upon to use with the brand name and they are:

Better things to do with your time
Live more meaningfully
Time well spent
It's all good

Great - I think you are definitely thinking a bit out of the box - but please, before you start on new revisions pop into each of the links I sent this morning. Our logo is lacking warmth and an element of individuality. Its obviously a tricky one to crack, but as I mentioned, i was hoping that there was the opportunity to visually bring to life the idea of 'kind things'/'kindness' in the logo - but without it going too leaves, trees, butterflies and hearts - if not, no problem. Its not easy I know

Oh and we are probably going with either 'Time well spent' or 'It's all good' as payoff lines - and not the first two

In the newest entries the "M" is a representation of two people shaking/holding hands.

Yup - loving it. Can I see 77 as follows: taking the colour and consistent grainy texture of 75. Try one in that colour but with all copy/stars/people shaking hands in white and one where you use two colours in the font so that the two people of the M are differentiated. Make sense?

The 'Of Thing' at the bottom of entry 77 is looking very squished. Any chance we could also see design 71 with the big M left as is, but a simpler font (like the one used by Danez in design 75 for the 'My Kind of Thing' around the edge (or a simpler, easier to read font that you feel will still work in conjunction with the 'M')

Thanks

Hi. Thanks for all your effort - as a team we have opted to go with Stickie. We really loved the 'M' idea, but in the end we all just went with our gut.
