I appreciate your commitment to this contest. Entries 18 and 19 have a chance to win.
I like the icon on the left and the name on the right. I don't like the yellow. I like red, gray, blue, black, lime, orange.
Entry 14 has a nice glass/lighting effect.
I like the S inside the star but not the font of it. Maybe "impact" or a similar font.
Entry 26 has long-shot potential. I would like to see if the breakdown of the name works like this as it gives stark and marketing equal weight and reduces the value of the group only. I would like to see a different icon above it or a more recognizable S.
The K on these has visual emphasis. Pls emphasize the S or nothing. I am not most fond of the 'star' in stark but it is what it is so i must consider it at least.
My business is marketing, which is also targeting and the star makes less sense considering that.
#19 looks more like an 'S'. I don't like the closed look of 38, 39, 40 #37 can u give some depth (maybe bevel) and an effect that follows the shape of the text. also the S in the star looks a bit skewed on the bottom tail of the S.
49 and 50 look identical. I dont like the S in the star. It is thicker which is nice, but the inside turns could be rounder and the more white space is best to abstract the design a bit. The bottom of the S right now has little fins that detract.
#36 has potential if the S was more rounded to match the bullseye.
I brought back #37 as it has something the others don't, which is an 'S' with an open bottom. Also, Impact font isn't the final answer, but only an example of thickness. I would like a font with more roundness, especially inside the turns of the 'S'. #65 is cool as the 'S' is displayed using only 2 elements. Is it possible to have a star with 3 elements? The third element would be the top of the star.
We are getting close and I have seen good designs from only 2 designers total. Obviously, this means you are still in the running to win.
