SubZero,
First off thanks for the excellent and creative entries into my LT. You had come in 2nd place for another contest I did for my girlfriend Johana with Johana Boutique a few weeks ago. I may work with you off line to buy that logo from you as the winning design though an excellent design, it may not be realistic for us to use for her business. Your design is a lot better for every day use and building our brand around her. So let me know how much would be a fair price for it even though you did not win the full prize money here.
As for entry#113.... I love it. Very creative.
Could I see some variations as such:
-Remove the grey haze behind the SMC icon you created. or if there is a reason for it, please explain?
-Possible offer one slightly more bold.
-Though I love the current finish, could I see #113 with the same metallic look as you have in #114.
-Could I see the company name in some of the fonts you feel work with it. The font a few of the other top designs is one I used in my previous logos attached in Contest Brief.
-Lastly would love to see some other colors options using your creativity. I love the SAME icon you made. and anything that can help customers see the SMC. I know its there but would love them to know as fast as possible.
Thanks for your work.
-Keith
