Southpaw Animal Health, Inc.Logo Design Contest

You guys are amazing. I never thought it would be so hard to rank them. I am just learning how to do this so bear with me if I move your designs around a little the first day til I get the hang of it. I don't have much time right now, but will come back at lunch to re evaluate the designs. Please keep up the brainstorming about the use of the South and the Paw into the design. I am looking for very Unique that makes my clients take a second look at the design. I am loving the more free form designs and various colors. I really don't like browns, yellows. Talk to you at lunch. If I haven't given you feedback yet. I will, no time right now. Thanks

I am finding it very difficult to rank these designs. they are all so very good. A good example of my idea of the perfect logo is the one for Orange County Choppers. That is the type logo I am looking for...........................self explanatory about the company, and what we do. I still am looking for more burgundy or shades, darker shades of blue, grey, or darker shades of purple. Keep primary focus on Paw prints, PREFERABLY REALISTIC LOOKING, rather than cartoon like. And all animal prints can be used, not just dog/cat. Again, we do Exotic animals too, mini horses, goats, lizards, snakes, sugar gliders, opossums, pocket pets and dogs & cats. I really like the designs having the letters in animal shapes or paw prints making up the letters. Hope I'm helping you with the designs by my feedback. keep up the fantastic work......................................nmlfxr

Ok, it's getting near impossible to choose. I had no idea it would be this difficult to choose what I like. I am really liking the designs with hidden acronyms. I am also favoring the freehand art over the stock images and more subtle lettering. As I have said from the beginning of the contest, I really want something unique to us at Southpaw and not a clone of another logo. If I wanted a standard logo, we wouldn't have asked you talented artists to design for us. I truly am amazed at your collective talents. Regardless which design/designer I choose, you have all been extremely impressive in your diligence and flexibility. We only have a few more days and I am employing the help of my staff, friends, and clients to help me choose the perfect logo. ..................thank you again for your efforts........................nmlfxr

Thanks for the kind words - please let me know if I can do ANYTHING else~

Hello designers,

No, I have not posted a winner yet. I am such a procrastinator. I love so many of the designs. I know my deadline is tomorrow and will post the winner by then.
