thanks for the design!

wow, icon is sick, really really love it.

the font doesn't do enough for me, i can't see it holding it's weight without the icon backing it up, would love to see your other font ideas

definitely one of my favorite icons if not my absolute favorite so far

Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep tinkering with fonts and colors. Let me know if you have any specific requests.

thanks for the new ideas!

can we see a totally fresh concept on the font?! i like what you did with #139 with the lines + splatter... just not really feeling the font.... maybe do something all caps

thanks for the new one, go completely different than your previous font designs!

i like the font on #145, keep pushing it

i would like it even better if you didn't slant the icon

thanks for the new designs

definitely feeling this. #151 is my favorite color way but there's too much splatter.

just a little more splat then #145 would be cool

would love to see #151 with less splatter from the head icon, leave the brush background strokes of color in there

put the icon style of #136 #137 #139 into #151

the eyes + nose are much harder to make out in #151

Thanks for the detailed feedback. I'll work on this when I get home this afternoon.

thanks for all the work

#176 still my favorite from you, would love to see more manipulation of font/lettering! it's just a little stiff

okayyyyyyyyyyyy so the other designer got disqualified?! don't know what happened


like i said before would love to see a little more font manipulation, JUST A LITTLE

I see that the designer who was removed will be reinstated, but as long as I am ranked first for a minute I will go ahead and submit the design that you asked me to work on this morning. If you wanted to keep working on this one I would rough up the type some more, but I realize that you will probably want to go back to the design you were working on with the other designer. I wouldn't want you to end up with a design that is not your first choice, so I am glad that Support is trying to take care of this for you. If you have any questions about logo courts or anything else you can always contact them. Thanks for a great contest.

it's pretty close right now between first and second ranked......

my manager likes yours a little more and i like wuppets a little more.... if you could show us a few more concepts that would be rocking


for your designs, i still like #176 the best, maybe show me a completely different font?

Another type option. Can you tell me what you want the type to convey, or give me a general idea of the style you're seeking? I'll be happy to keep at it.

dirty/homeless/crazy/caveman vibe

i dig the font on the top 8-9 designs...

#176 i like the font, but just not in love

the font should be able to stand alone and be powerful/memorable in it's own right, without the icon

your icon is powerful enough to stand alone without the font.

i'm loving the gradient and bevel/bossishness of the font for #176, just need a little more oooompphhhh

thanks for your new work! c'mone you can kill it better than these i know it!

i dig the deeper color & flare on #261, but i think i like the position of the reflection/spark on #176 better

i know it's a severe time constraint... would love to see the font murder fools, i know you have a sicker font design inside you!

DUDE

#263 COLOR IN THE LETTERING IS SICK SICK SICK WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW

is there anything else we can add to the font/lettering? a light touch of something, some slight manipulation of some sort just for the extra oomph? just needs a little bit more character

#260, #251 not feeling the lettering on these, just feels generic to me =(

on #260, you're able to see more of the icon's mohawk splatter,

can you accentuate the mohawk a bit on #263 as well


thank you so much for all your work, you are killing fools!

can you add a smirk/smile into the caveman icon? something to give it more of an edge

thanks so much for the new designs....

if it was just me, i love it with no mouth @ all.... just needs that extra ooomphhhhh

what else could we do to the mouth to really knock it outta the park, a scream maybe?!

what's the difference between #270 and #271?

Here's the latest version, with a few enhancements. The only difference between the last two I submitted was a subtle gray striping effect in the background. I have it on this one, too, but it can easily be removed if you don't like it. Let me know what you think.

out of all them, i still dig #263 the best... the face is just awesome on that...

the mouth is kind of killing it, my fault.... what about a giant open mouth on the dude? like him screaming, open wide, giant mouth... would love to see how that looks

i like the splatter on #272, #283 is kinda overkill, takes away from the letters too much, maybe something inbetween would be a cool fit

Here are a couple with open mouth. I have to go to a holiday family thing this afternoon, so I won't be able to make any more revisions for a few hours. I'm happy to keep working at it with you, though. Thanks!

hey thanks so much for working on this with me
i truly, truly, truly appreciate it, i know this is annoying as all hell...

i like your logo the best, but my manager digs the number 2 ranked one.... it's definitely going to be my decision though!

i'm looking for more of a scream, maybe if the dude was eating a record, or screaming out a record in a sense....

my favorite is still #263 right now... still would love to see more of his black splash mohawk splashing outwards over the blue and yellow splashes


my bad on messing with the guys mouth, it's just not looking right... we have to change his look slightly so he can scream properly?!

maybe have the caveman icon, on the left of the icon, facing the type instead of facing away from it, and have him screaming into the type, and if that sounds horrible, just do whatever you think would be dope...

something with just a bit more of a scream/energy coming out of the icon

is there any more slight touches of manipulation we can add to the font? it still looks a bit too generic for me

Here's a few more.
I am happy to keep working with you if you end up choosing my design. I can keep making revisions once the contest has ended before you approve the files. I would love to keep revising with you in the hopes of being chosen, but I'm getting close to having to call it quits. It's just that I have a couple of paying projects I need to get done, and without knowing that I'll be paid for the work I'm doing with you, I just have to make a call at some point... I hope you understand. I've had a great time working on these designs, and I sincerely hope you choose me as the winner. As I said, if I'm selected I'll keep working with you indefinitely until you are completely happy with the logo. I would keep working indefinitely without a guarantee of payment if I could. Thanks so much for the chance to compete.

Okay, one more.

(This comment references Entry #293)

hey, i understand how you're feeling, this is what you do for a living baby! i truly appreciate all your work.

at the end of the day, this is a competition and i'm just not 100% happy yet.

like i said before, you are definitely my favorite choice thus far. but i feel like this specific design has come as far as it can come, and i need to give other people a chance.

#263 is still my favorite, it just works better than the others. i think him screaming out the outline of a record, or just eating/biting/having a record in his mouth would top it off. i love your design of the record, and the icon, that is really what is carrying this logo.

the font is still lacking that edge, the colors are amazing but the basic font is still generic.... it just needs a LITTLE something... these are some font manipulations i like below:

i will give some other artists a chance to see their ideas, and will most likely come back to you in a day or two.

thank you again for everything

would love to see your new lettering designs, thanks!

thanks so much for the new work

i think it's close to finished... i'll most likely come back to you and it will be final when i do, thanks so much again for everything

i definitely understand that you can't do any more work until i make a final decision, thanks

i dig most of the letter manipulation #277 - #299 and the record you designed is awesome

A couple of variations, as requested.
