#130 Very nice and a unique perspective of world map - never seen this before. This has potential to become number one. But you need to add something to the map, by itself it is nothing. See if you add a bridge with right perspective. Or three shooting stars originating from one point in the U>S and ending in different parts of the world... think of some pretty concept like that.
#80 has potential if you clean up a bit. I am getting positive feedback regarding it from friends. You just need to make it prettier with thicker lines and special effects etc. In fact the same is true for entire family of #80, #81, #82.
#103 - the more I look at the more I like it. Could you please try this - make it a bit smaller and enclose it in a circle or an oval? That in addition to suggestions above?
Another idea for you to think about since you are the only one who has embraced thebridge concept extensively (just a suggestion) - A globe sitting on top of a bridge. Or a globe with lower half being the bridge.
And last one for today (hopefully ;) - #123 replace the middle button with lighter shade globe with 3d perspective - a globe surrounded by digital communications. in anothe rvrsion make the whole thing sit on bridge.
Here is honest feedback - you are getting very good designs/concepts but they need to be "prettied" up a bit. Just a bit here, a bit there! And get rid of smileys asap in the ranked designs and new designs - they are generating a very negative feedback.
And really last one - create a large enough wordmark Pictiri and then use the hollow of P to put a globe or other elements of your choice in it. Play with fancy font styles to spice it up and you may have another concept on your hand.
If you think I am influencing you too much and it is becomeing a problem for you to stay creative - feel free to ignore everything above (except the smiley) and let your creativity take over!
OK - I really want you to work on doing something creative with the word "Face" - use different color, accent it, give a background to it... what ever!
#139#140 - very nice! Three variants for you to think -
(1) just horizontal ring to make it less crowded
(2) just the horizontal ring with sequence of 1s and 0s. that is very important to our technology so if we can incorporate it in to the ring that signifies communications, it would be a plu.
(3) Use only one horizontal ring but convert it into a circular bridge around the map - if you could do this, it would be amazing and it would probably be one of the top ranked entries.

#139#140 - very very nice! four variants for you to think -
(1) just horizontal ring to make it less crowded
(2) just the horizontal ring with sequence of 1s and 0s. that is very important to our technology so if we can incorporate it in to the ring that signifies communications, it would be a plus. This i
(3) Use only one horizontal ring but convert it into a circular bridge around the map - if you could do this, it would be amazing and it would probably jump to #.
(4) Make a variant with greyscale and red.
(5) REMOVE SMILEYS ;-) use some sort of accent on the word "Face" instead.
#61 - remove bridges. Put Pictiri on the map with correct perspective and tagline below the picture. This is very unique design and our focus group would like to see more work on it.
#219 Read the latest update to the brief. Make sure you have enough contrast between adjoining colors for greyscale reproduction. So in the map here you should enhance the contrast between stripes.
Would it be possible to change the perspective on the map so that it rotates even more out of the paper (so Asia is towards the front and Americas towards back). That would make the logo more compact in width and also give the map outline a shape of P (roughly)!
#219 as mentioned above re: perspective - not only you would need to rotate Asia more out of paper, you will need to sink the America a bit lower as well to get a rough shape of P. I know it is possible.
#222#219 - in addition to suggestions above, you may want to enclose the map in a oval very faint color box. Right now the ill-defined edges of the logo are working against it. When you do that, try to make it smaller as well if you don't lose aesthetic value.
#222, #219 - the basic problem we are having with this excellent concept is its size, especially vertically - it will almost cover half of a business card. However, we do believe you can reduce the size with correct perspective.
#256 very nice change - the circular bridge is very creative. Could you please make a variant with blue also (as in #219). Also, it wouldn't be a bad idea to play with the perspective to further reduce the size.
Ignore my comment above regarding making it smaller. But playing with map perspectives is still a good idea to get the most aesthetic one. Just a suggestion. But definitely do a blue one.
#261, #262, #263 - nice new concept with a nice big P. If you can create one with a eyeball (a picture of globe with right perspective and filling does the job very well), you would have captured a lot of design elements. Also slight increase in size to make the globe/eyeball/or whatever the focus of design would improve the design in our opinion.
And last - can you make a variant of this in black/red combo?
#306 - very nice work. The only issue here might be that only Americas is visible and people outside the U>S. sometime don't like that. We have to think about this. But other than that, very nice!
#309 - I get it !!!!!!!!!!!! it is human holding the globe! Very clever. However, we would need to smoother the line a bit to make the whole thing look less like a face with a medieval armor. You have 42 minutes!!!
As you can see several of your submissions are now in the final list that getting smaller by the day. I need you to do a couple of things to your RANKED only entries -
(1) Replace all smileys by the word face with a swoosh or something similar under it (not a smile).
(2) Make the word "Face" understated by using a lighter color in comparison to rest of the tagline.
(3) Please make sure tagline is not "crowded out" and it stands out - the font size in #305 (or larger) is good.
(4) This is going to be a bit more work but it is very important. A lot of feedback is centering around some entries being too colorful for a serious business. In particular, we are getting a lot of push back on the combination of blue with orange in the word Pictiri, tagline and/or design. Would it be too much trouble for you to make variants using the following color combinations for #219, #216, #36 and #129: (1) two shades of blue - one darker and one lighter, use your creativity and sense of aesthetics to see which shades are the best, and (2) a combination of blue and green as in #325.
(5) Where possible we like the font size for Pictiri to be prominent, clean and thinner - no games with it.
(6) The bridges in #219, 36, 129 and 83 are too light - could you use an appropriate darker color and.or thicker lines to make it a bit more prominent - it is after all a very important element of your concept and should not be understated.
Please let me know if you can do this! ASAP would be great as we have a meeting on Monday to narrow the list down even further. I want as many entries of yours in that short list as possible as you worked very hard. Thanks!
