Regarding #41: Can you make the two sides of the sling shot a little bit more into an "S" shape? That would correspond to the 2 S's in "sling shot" and I think is a very good concept. Also, I liked the idea of the action lines you used on #44. Those were a little too bold for me though. If you could incorporate something like that, but make them less bold and put them under the letters that would be great.
Regarding #47: I like the idea of using the dot in the i as part of the logo. However, I really want the graphic to be to the left of the words. Great idea though! Keep them coming!
Hi, do you have any updates? I had asked if you could make the sides of the sling shot into more of an "S" shape. I would really like to see what you can do with that.
Hi! as I promised, here's the revised version, with more S shape for the slingshot. Apologize for the delay and please let me know what you think about this. I hope I'm on the right direction. If you have any suggestion, please feel free to ask. I'll do the best I could. Thanks!
Yes, #111 is very good. I have decided that orange / yellow does not go with the blue & green the way I thought it would. Could you change the color on the orange circle? For this graphic, I think I would prefer a gray/black color. Also, in English there are two ways to show the letter "g". Here is what I mean: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:LowercaseG.svg. I like the "double-story" g better than the "single-story." Can you find a cool font that uses that kind of g?
here's another idea. I made the slingshot's ball shooting to the letter O, to represent that your service will be always shoot on target and achieve goals
Regarding #114, I like where you are coming from, but I decided that I don't want to have multiple "balls" like that. It may not look good if I have the logo on a shirt, or printed on a business card. Thanks for the idea though. Please don't be offended that I put it in the "not interested" pile. :-)
Actually, I like the font in #111 better than #118. It is more crisp. The only thing that bugs me about #111 is:
1. The orange ball. I would like to see it grayish black with some light reflected on it. 2. The letter g. If there is some way to find a font that is almost exactly like #111, but with the different kind of "g" I would love it!
Instead of looking another font that similar #111 with 'double-story' g, I prefer to use the same font but with customized double-story g. I hope I'm on the right track. Let me hear what you think about this.
Ok, that is fine. I think the customized g that you did is a great start. The top circle in the g seems a little big. My favorite font that I have seen so far is from #72. Maybe you can use that as a reference? Also thank you for making the circle darker. It seems a little too concrete now though. Is there something you can do to make it consistent with the abstract-ness of the rest of your logo? I hope that makes sense.
I have one more request. Can you give me one just like #125, but with a dark gray or black color for the word "Shot"? I just want to compare the two. Thank you!
With all my pleasure, ed! Here it is. The reason why I'm using green color for 'Shot' is to match with the initial SS at the sling shot icon. But it's up to you to decide which one do you like best :)
Thank you, Aryo. I like the idea of matching the blue & green with the letters. Can you modify #125 and make the green just a little bit darker? I think we are very close!
Here it is! Just want to let you know that I'll be ready for you with unlimited revision. So you can ask revision as much as you need until you get the logo exactly what you want. Please feel free to ask!
Thank you so much, Aryo. You are very easy to work with. I still like #125 the best. I think the only thing that is bugging me is that the green on "Shot" seems a little too light to me. And maybe that is because of the shine that it has. Can you reduce the shine? You don't need to get rid of all of it, but just reduce it some. On the top of the word "Shot" the green is darker than it is on the bottom, and I like the darkness on the top. If you can extend that more to the bottom, it would be great.
Can you submit a logo where the graphic is in the middle of "Sling" and "Shot", and where you use the dot on top of the "i" as part of the graphic (the ball at the end of the sling shot)?
Hi ed, here's the revised version. If I allowed to give opinion for this layout, maybe it's great to incorporate the icon with the company name, but I think it looks a bit too busy and the space between 'Sling' and 'Shot' become too far. But if you want to include this version for the final files, I'll be glad to give it to you. I'll be provide anything you need for the logo :)
Regarding the light greeen color, since this site is just allowed the preview mode for 350 x 280 pixel with 300 dpi, I think it's reduce the quality of the color. If you want more detailed view for the logo, you can complete this contest and then I can send you the high resolution file for the logo via email. So we can start to revise the color from there.
and regarding the graphic design for iphone app, to be honest I have never done it before, but I really so excited and interested with it since it will be my first experience! (since I'm an apple fanboy too and using iphone as well! :D)
The project I've ever done that still related with user interface design is making user interface for identity theft score tools. If you are willing to offer me the project for the iphone app graphics design, it would be a honor for me! :)
Thanks for #184. I agree with you, though. It looks too busy. I will put it in the "not interested" list. And that makes sense about the color. We could work more on it later to get it just right. We can definitely talk more after the contest about the iPhone app!
Hey Aryo, no problem. I have one final request for you. A lot of my friends have told me not to use the "g" that I asked you to do. So can you switch it back to the other kind of g? Like how you have in #111.
Can you make one final small change to #188? I would like to see how it looks a little more simplified. So can you send me one without the lines around the words "Sling Shot"? I just want to see how that looks. Thanks!
Sure, ed! Here it is. I think it looks more clean, so the word 'SlingShot' become more standout and easu to read at first glance. Well that's just my opinion :)
Hey Aryo... the contest is now in the "judging" phase, so I am just trying to make sure I am making the very best decision.
Can you change #195, to shorten the line between the ball and the sling shot? It seems like the ball is out there all alone. If you can reduce that line by about 25%, I think it would help make it look more clean and tight. Let me know what you think.
Here it is, ed. Sorry for the delay, Actually, altough you have choosing me as the winner, you can still revise the logo until it's exactly what you want. In fact, we can work and finalize the logo with more detailed view since we can communicate directly via email. Don't worry, you can count on me. I'll do the best I could for you :)
Thanks Aryo. The contest has ended, but I have 7 days for the "judging phase" to pick the final winner. I am trying to decide between the top 3 right now. The logotournament website only lets me get revisions from the number one pick, so I will have to change the others to be number one so I can get some revisions from them. I will make my final decision by next Friday (hopefully sooner).
Thank you for being so responsive. That is a very important part of being a great designer.
Yeah sure, ed. That's no problem at all. You've spent $700 to make a logo in this site, so you deserve to get the best for it. :)
Please allow me to explain the whole idea of my work : 1. As I said, I made the slingshot icon based on initial company name which is SS (with matched color on each name, blue for Sling and green for Shot) .The use of intial company is one of the most favourite way in logo designing. It's because the audience will easier to remember what is the company name. 2. You can also use the icon logo stand alone without company name. With the initial SS, people will still recognize your company name 3. Clean and simple, so the audience will easy to recognize at first glance, even the logo in small size. 4. I decided to upload the high resolution logo for you, so you can take a look with more detailed view. you can check here :
Finally, the decision is yours. All I do is just do the best I could, and I can only hope that I'm lucky enough for being picked as the winner :)
Thank you so much for being a great client. You're one of the best client that I ever met in logotournament.com. I really enjoyed and pleased to work with you and I really hope that I can continue work with you for the next project.
