#1 - The "second" and "CIO" portions are nice and have a good size ratio, allowing the CIO part to stand out a little more. The roman numeral two with the spiral is well thought out, yet at first glance it looks like HP. The spiral pulled over the "secondCIO" portion might look good.
#7 - This is starting to look really good. We would like to see what it will look like to remove the "2" and move the 3-D "C" to the end of "second" and make the whole "CIO" in 3-D text with the orbit going around the "CIO" portion. Let's try keeping the "second" italicized and have the "CIO" stand straight up for this next draft. The "second" can overlap the "C" in "CIO" or it can just lead up to it. It would be great to see what both options look like.
#7 - We really like the 3-D "C". We needed to move this design back from first place, because we were sending the wrong message about the "2" and started receiving more designs with "2's" in them, which we want to avoid. We look forward to your next versions very much.
#5 - We brought this design back into the ranking box, because the double swish could be used to advantage with the "CIO" portion along with the other perimeters we've described in our updated brief.
#23 - The 3-D "CIO" looks good, yet we'd like to see it standing straight up. Just a reminder, we were hoping to see the double swish used with the "CIO" portion. We have an updated brief that more clearly explains what we are looking for.
#24 - The 3-D "CIO" looks real good, yet we'd like to see it standing straight up and still be able to tell it is 3-D. We'd like to see the "second" stay 2-D and all the letters be the same height (all upper case or all lower case.) We have an updated brief that more clearly explains what we are looking for.
#59 - the "CIO" looks awesome standing straight up! The double swish looks really good the way you placed it. The underline even looks good. We would like to see what you can do with the "second" part to make it slightly more subtle. We like the "second" not being in 3-D. Great job!
