One more thing...can you provide me an alternate version of #2, with the following:
Change the color to the brighter gold Take out the Nevada silhouette and just make it a regular N. Utilize the "C" to see if you can make it a coin looking symbol, or using a coin and $ symbol?
I would encourage you to look at the "General Comment" posted earlier after we were finally able to meet with our PR/Advertising director. In short, multiple 'fade' color schemes will not work and the word "Nevada" is over-emphasized in most of the logos submitted
we plan on extending contest three days, and increasing the prize 150.00 dollars..
