the direction you are heading in with entries in 6 7 and 8 is more the direction we appreciate. we like a little more complexity then the simple "SGS" provided n entry 5 but feel you are in the right direction. We are also unsure about the squares in the corner of the "G", we think it may look better with something a little different
as well... our colors provided where just and idea of different directions we are heading in... there is no need to use all of them or simply just one. we are open to suggestion and left the color option fairly broad so you as the designer can choose and be creative! thanks!
I like your idea on entry #13 it different and that's the type of direction we want to head in. Maybe try incorporating entry 12 and 13 I think that would have potential to be different, neat and maybe have that WOW factor! Feel free to get creative and try a bunch of different ideas... We are loving your work!! Thanks
