We aren't too keen on the style you're using for these logos. We are looking for a more polished, serious, precisely-crafted logo, with a uniquely memorable shape and subtle details. Neither the text nor icon here really demonstrate those qualities which we're trying to promote. In terms of text, specifically, the font is rather lackluster, especially in the slogan.
We really need a much more assertive feeling in our logo: Our future clients need to take one look at our logo and immediately see that we're in charge, that we are the best. How can you make them see this?
We hope you take some time right now to brainstorm and come back to us with some fresh ideas. We look forward to it. Thank you!
They are definitely much closer to what we want to see. The icon has a nice 3D effect with glassy reflection. The color choices are fairly good, although the silver bands would look a lot cooler if they were brushed metal and a little more reflective, and the blue should probably have more blue than green component in it.
The text is still not too great. The fonts need to be improved. The gradient on the company name needs to be more subtle so that it's easier to read. We don't really like the right-alignment on the slogan; it should probably be left-aligned, centered, or justified. The black text in #80 should probably be a shade of grey to keep the logo well-balanced.
The tail on the icon (which, we assume, makes the icon resemble the letter Q) looks poorly placed. It should probably be removed. But then that essentially leaves a sphere, which is a little boring, so can you think of some other way to make it a more unique shape? We should mention that we're actively trying to steer designers away from making logos that resemble the letter Q, and instead focus on more abstract, unique shapes.
Please keep the ideas coming. We always want to see new concepts in addition to revisions of existing ones. Thanks!
The contest is ending today and we haven't seen any updates from you in a week. Just wondering if you still plan on participating. We hope you do. Thanks!
