Hi,
thanks for your feedback,
this is logo #1 with blue color. in my previous design (#1) i used green to incorporate the color of money/profit. in this submission, i add adjustment with "my" but with darker color to balance with the "PrivateArmy" with light color. also i add the "ground" to defined space of a group.
looking forward for your feedback.
Warm regards,

Thanks for the heads up on where to leave feedback...

So on #4, I don't totally dislike the blue, but I feel that this lighter/brighter shade of blue is a bit too feminine for our target demographic. I think I do still like the contrast of "My" with the rest, but I would rather not diminish its size and importance. The reason I liked the contrast to begin with was because I feel it's important for a small manufacturer to think "Wow, I can put my products on this site and amass MY VERY OWN private army of salespeople."

I do like your intention with the green signifying money or profit. Maybe there's a way to work that in more precisely on the money angle without the whole logo being "military green" ???

Hi,
i try different approach now.
In this submission i use compass as graphic, and incorporate ink pen head as compass needle.

Warm regards,

#39 and #41 - don't really like the black/white ("mono"?)

#42 - don't think i want to go with red, unless the design was somehow very unique (e.g. Yelp's logo)

#43 and #44 and #40

I wonder if "Private Army" should be in light green (like #1) for #43.

On #44, I don't really like the red - it seems too strong, but the contrast with the figures and font is somewhat interesting. Same with #40 - it makes it seem like the guy in front could be the customer, with people backing him up maybe.

In general, I am a little worried that the figures you have drawn make for too generic a logo. While the designs are clean and well executed, I want to make sure that the graphical elements in my logo are unique.

Thanks a lot for all of your work!

#38 - cool graphic. This shade of green is workable. There's something about the font that doesn't totally convince me, but I can't put my finger on it.

#37 - I think graphic is too large in relation to the text. I wonder if the color should be either more orange or a lighter, purer yellow...? And then I wonder if any of these colors would combine well with another color instead of black for the text and/or the black parts of the graphic.

Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your concern to my design.
This is revision #38,
response to your previous feedback maybe because it all in caps or thinner font, so i make the revision by using the same font in #1.

thanks again,

Warm regards,

(This comment references Entry #51)

This is revision for #43, #44 and #40 as you suggest to used light green as in #1

(This comment references Entry #52)

Hi,
according to your feedback, i made some change from previous design (#1), but still in the same concept.

(This comment references Entry #53)

Alternative #1

(This comment references Entry #54)

Alternative for #1

(This comment references Entry #55)

another alternative for #1

(This comment references Entry #56)

alternative in black, this also put strength to the "My own" on graphic

(This comment references Entry #57)

The black ties and black outline didn't really work for me. What if the font and figures were not outlined in bold black, but the ties were black??? This might be good.

On #1, which I moved back into first place, is still not a sure thing to win. I like the idea, but maybe it's the color scheme that isn't selling me. I realize that I said "no orange" in the contest brief, but I almost feel like it could work in this case. It would have to be kind of subtle, maybe like the color of the buttons used on these LogoTournament pages.

Hopefully you have the time to work with us over the next 20 hours to get this right. You are a very strong contender in this contest.

Thanks!!!

(refers to #1)

Also, I like the idea of having a different color for the figure in the front. That being said, dark red and light green are too stark a contrast. I think that there are probably some combinations out there that might be slightly more subtle and would work great. I would love to see some other versions of #1 and #40 that do this.

(refers to #1 AND OTHERS)

Hi, i've just read your feedback, thanks.
i will working on the revision that you've ask, and fully working on this design until the contest over.

This is the first revision using #1 color scheme but with black tie.

(This comment references Entry #91)

Hi,
this is the revision with LT button's color as you suggest.

(This comment references Entry #95)

Hi, again this time i combine the color of the button and the board in "Hide contest brief" button's color in the main contest page. also with no black tie as in the #1.

(This comment references Entry #96)

another color revision, the soft one..

(This comment references Entry #97)

Hi, this is color revision on the man in front combined with green in #1 as man in the behind.

(This comment references Entry #98)

same as before but the man in the behind i made it darker, to get the contrast.

(This comment references Entry #99)

Hi,
In this submission i also try to play a bit with lettering as you suggest in the general feedback.

(This comment references Entry #103)

another try on alternative new graphic and new lettering

(This comment references Entry #104)

#99 - don't like the gradient in in green-blue on the background figures.

(#99)

#98

Something doesn't look great about the tone of hte green that you used here. Otherwise, I like it.

(#98)

#97 is overally too light/subtle. While #96 does this better, the front figure (and maybe everything) is too brown.

(#97, #96)

#95 - same as #96. Not sure if I love the black ties, but maybe keep it up with both white and black in case we change our mind on that.

Can we try something slightly more orange (not too loud/bold, though)?? Since the contest is running out, feel free to try out a bunch of colors, please.

We like your work so far. Thanks for being so responsive!

(#95)

Thanks for your feedback
sure! i will focus on orange now.
thanks again

Warm regadrs,
kodoqijo

(This comment references Entry #163)

Can you do #146 without the reflection? I like it, but I'm not sure yet if I would use the reflection or not. Having the option on these things to do so or not would be great.
