Pillar Property Services, LLCLogo Design Contest

Hi, everyone. This is my first contest and first viewing. I will do my best to comment as much and as often as I can. I'll start by commenting directly on tth submissions so far starting right after I post this. Thank you so much for participating.

Paul

Thanks all. These are exceeding my expectations. Good work!

I'm using a ranking system of basically ranking only my favorite concept of a group of similar designs so that I don't have five similar ones in a row, for example. I hope that makes sense and is OK.

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest:

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage more participation.
~~ Ranking designs daily will also keep your contest from getting cluttered.
~~ The more feedback you provide, the better results you are going to see.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested"
~~ Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation.
~~ Ranking is a non-monitary means of showing apprecaition for designers hard work.
~~ Designers earn points for ranked designs. We like to earn points.

Designers, wonderful work. Thank you so much. You all seemed to follow what I wrote. I'll do a reranking right after this post.

I'm really impressed for having only done this one day. I solely looked at the designs today but starting tomorrow I will be getting addtional input from my coworkers. Although I have final say as the owner of the company, I do value thier opinions so please understand why the rankings might change for no apparent reason. Also, I am not agonizing too much over whether a design should be ranked, say 5th or 6th, at this point. I'm concentrating more on whether I really like it or not and trying to give as much feedback as possible. I have a long-lost relative coming into town tomorrow so I may not respond as frequently as I did today but I pledge to comment as much as possible as I appreciate your hard work.

Sorry, designers, the last 24 hours got away from me - mostly that pesky day job :)

I will comment and rank all new entries within the next hour.

Group feedback has effected a rearrangement of the top three. Still, I'd say these are "neck and neck".

Wow! These have all been so good. Only two days left but I could easily pick a whole bunch of these. I'll be getting more feedback now in the last couple days, too, from others. Thank you, all.

Just a suggestion, designers. Don't withdraw any submissions at this point. During the judging period, several of us will be judging not only "themes" but which one of the themes we like best. I haven't ranked all of the variations of a theme but want to hold them for final evaluation. Thanks, all, and again, GREAT WORK!!!

Well, I am about two hours from the closing of the contest. I won't be posting any additional specific comments between now and the closing. I've tried to respond to all the ones I got today but from this point forward through the judging period I will just be focusing on gathering the input from the people who have been giving me their feedback and frankly just sitting back and "feeling" rather than "analyzing". This has been amazing and I truly commend you all.
