SpaceTEC-CertTEC management has reported that they are focused on your #133 series. With a few adjustments and with your help with the stacked logos per our previous exchanges, you will be selected as the winner within a day or two. I have advised that the stacking of the logos will have to follow the conclusion of the contest. You are very talent, and have worked very hard. Thank you for all your efforts. Congratulations! Here are the immediate questions and requests.
1) Previously, I was not able to tell the difference between #133 and #135. Now, it appears to me that "CertTEC's is centered in #135. One of the company requests was to center the name in the globe. They were looking at #133. I think you have accomplished this with #135. Please let me know if there are any other differences between #133 and #135.
2) At this time, the company, which has CertTEC as a registered trademark, would like to see the placement of a red "R" in a red circle. Aesthetically, it appears that it might look best in space created next to the slanted "C" at the end of "CertTEC". Otherwise, it seems that adjustments and compromises in the logo will be needed. Please work with placement in a way that will not detract from your work.
3) Finally, as an experiment, you are being asked to add "a thin black outline on the extreme edge of the dark red leading edge to accent it". It was acknowledged that this addition might not be helpful. We will leave it to you as an artist to see if you come up with thoughts along these lines. If this addition will not be helpful, your current artwork will be perfect.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for your help.
Thanks Uta. I now understand the difference. We can focus on #135. For now, so SpaceTEC-CertTEC can see the placement of the registered trademark, please simply place a red dot in the place where we will put the trademark sign after the contest is over. I believe that I may need to give you a higher resolution version of the current CertTEC font. At what point can I send an attachment and any messages to your own email address? Skip
CertTEC requires a mark inside the oval. I should have made that clear before. I am concerned about having to change the artwork, and would like to look at a red dot in space available next to the slanted "C". Please see what looks best in this area. Thanks, Skip
The dot has to be inside the oval like #137. In #137, however, the visual effect is being destroyed a bit. Please go back to #135, and put the dot in the middle or lower portion of the open area to the right of the italic "C". Please try to get the best visual placement in this area. Thanks, Skip
