Hi thanks for submitting

I really like #53 but I am not wild about most of the other entries. I'd like to see the shadow blurred a bit from the leave and would be interested if you could bring a small touch of blue into the mix.

Hi thanks

I still like your original one most. Perhaps a tiny touch of red at the end of the leaf to symbolize fire? I'd like the shadow blurred more so it is just a fuzzy shadow.

Hi
sorry only responding now I am in the south and it is only morning now :)

I like the font colours on #53 the most. I like the red tip on 75 but somehow I keep returning to #53 again. Not sure why it looks better to my eye. I see in some of the logos you have faded the leaf shadow instead of blurring it, I was thinking of something like the shadow in the following image http://www.tagsoft.net/tagsoft_work/tag_developers/fahad/tagsoft-last/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/logo-design1-300x288.jpg

thanks!

Do you have some more feedback>?

I think we're getting closer on the shadow, thanks. If you could please darken the shadow more so it is a little more distinct as I like the 3D feel it adds.

On the red tip could you perhaps deepen/darken the red slightly?

And then I wonder if you could fade the stalk of the leaf into the same brown used in the font, I think it may tie the two together more closely?

I still cant make a clear choice between the three variations though...

thanks for the work!

OK so we're still back with your original #53 as our favourite, but with some minor changes:
I like the brown font as used in #85 and others
I like the subtle brown stalk of the leaf
no red tip to the leaf
no circle around the leaf
We would like to keep the shadow with the cross visible in it, but with a subtle blur to it. Look at a quickly edited version of what I mean on the shadow

Hi, I'm glad you like the design! It would be great to work with you on other projects after the contest.. God bless you guys! (I'm a Christian and made a lot of designs for my church in the Netherland, now I live in Uruguay)

Aaagh nice working with a sister in the faith!

I'd like a couple of revisions as we finalize this design.

1. I'd like the word 'church' to be a little larger as it is not as clear relative to everything else.

2. Then I would like a minor adjustment in the leaf. I love the brown stalk but would you extend the brown in a thin strip along the side of the cross like the centre vein in a leaf. I am not looking for a huge amount but a subtle fading brown strip heading up at least as long as the stalk itself. (not sure how clear I am being?)

Here is a hastily edited one to show something of what I mean. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/105264418/leaf_2.jpg

3. Then I'd like to see an option on a dark background although this is something we'd not ordinarily use it would be a good thing to have.

4. Then looking at screens is not always a good way to see how colours look. Can I confirm that the green in the font is from one of the greens in the gradient in the leaf?

thanks!

from one of the other guys on our team
" I like it a lot. Rather than making "Church" bigger, make PROTEAVALLEY smaller
I would also like to see the logo with a very simple type font and how that would look. "

Hi Loving the new stuff, good work!

Could I check two things and make some final changes:

Colour: Is that green from the gradient it look s a little less vibrant green than in leaf and I'd like you top check that, might be a screen issue though.

Alignment: how did you align logo and font....what are you using as the centre of the logo, just wondering?

Please can we have #133 with both 'protea' and 'valley' in bold. I see only 'protea' is in bold at the moment. Also could you please increase spacing slightly between leaf shadow and font.

Also could we see a variation with the word church in lower-case (just to see how it looks)

thanks!!!

Hi, I'm glad you guys like it!!

• colour: I used a mix of the leaf green and the leaf stalk brown.. If you want I can give it only the green of the leaf... no problem..
• alignment: I used the rules from my program I did centre only the green leaf because it's the eye catcher one.. not the shadow.

I'll upload in some minutes...
