Hello,
Here is my submission. Flashy colors with 3 darts and the logo included. Let me know if i can make any improvements to this for you or if you'd like to see any changes. Thanks.

Thanks for your submissions. We like this concept. You can strip out the copy above and below the NDA log, too small. Can we see more concepts of this design in different colors and possibly including a dart board? We do not like the pattern on the flight of the dart. Possibly a more modern look overall? Thanks.

i made some updates like you said and added a dartboard. changed the colors to match the dartboard. if you have a color scheme in mind, let me know what that is and i can implement that. thanks for the feedback.

Thanks! The dartboard doesn't have to be in that color scheme and it can be more of a abstract image. Could you try a bright blue and orange scheme please? Also, could we see another version where the board is used as the backdrop instead or in place of the swirl? We like where you're going with the concept - just needs a little fine-tuning.

here is one with the colors you specified and a dart board added. i guess i don't know what sort of pattern or color you want on the fletchings of the dart, but let me know if you have a better 'direction' for those to go. thanks.

whoops uploaded wrong one. here is the new one with the specs from above ^

This looks great! Could we see a few with just darts, and then some with just the dartboard? The flights can be plain; we don't need a specific design - just whatever you can incorporate with the color scheme is fine.

Logo Designer
here are a few as requested with the dartboard and darts as seperate elements. just darkened up the blue a little bit to make it pop more. let me know if there are any other things you'd like to see or if you have another color combo in mind. thanks.

Thanks for updating. We think these logos have great potential.

General: Can we see different colors and fonts? Remove text borders. We are welcomed to seeing new concepts as well.

#13 Move the text to the front (in front of the darts). Darts are too big,

#12 Prefer the logo to be more horizontal, possibly moving the board to the left of the text. Don't like the placement of the NDA logo at the top (the logo does not need to be prominent). Change the black in the dart board to grey.

#7 Rearrange components. Don't like the placement of the NDA logo at the top (the logo does not need to be prominent).

here are a few more options. i think a red/blue scheme would look nice since you have to use the NDA logo, so i did a couple with those colors. i did one with a different font too. basically all these 'elements' are interchangable, so if you like the color from one, the layout of another and the font from another, let me know and i can put it all together just the way you want it.

#16 - Could you make the darts more vertical to create a more exciting feeling. Could you add a dartboard to the base of the logo - maybe as though the words are showcased on top of the board (give it some dimension). Then have the darts spread out vertically behind the text going into the board. The colors do match the NDA logo, but that isn't a necessity. We would actually prefer to have a different color scheme than the NDA logo. We need something bright and exciting, but modern and clean. We like this font better, but seems to be italicized. If that's the case, can you remove the italics, or choose a font that doesn't appear this way?

We also added a couple more links in our brief that may give you more ideas on what style we like.

Thanks for your hard work!

OK i tried your idea with the stacking of the words on the board and i think it turned out pretty well. i know you didn't want the black outlines around the words, but with the layering its necessary to keep the image clear and not have all the colors running together and giving it a blurry look. let me know what you think and where you want to go from here.

Thanks,
Kyle

I like where you're going with Entry #18. Can you make everything fit on top of the dart board? So that the logo is then a circle? The darts may still need to hang over the edge though.
13 years ago
 
Logo Designer
per your latest request. all elements within the circle, with darts sticking slightly outside.
let me know if you have any other ideas to be implemented.
Thanks,
Kyle

Client
Thanks. I like this. I think the darts need to be together as they seem kind of random. And then we need to work on the colors, we need Team Dart to stand out, it currently blends in too much with the dart board. Open to your suggestions as to how to make it stand out. I wouldn't mind seeing an option when green.

Here is one option with green. i will work on some other color combos too.

2 more 'green' options - no blue

There still something about it that makes it hard to read, maybe the font. Not there yet, but I think the logos have potential.

#20 - I really like the dimension in this one. Can you make "Team Dart 2012" larger so it is more prominent than the board and darts? It could go outside the circle lines of the board. That may help with the legibility. Could you also try to incorporate a different font and mix in a larger arrangement of colors other than 2-3 colors to see what that does. I really like this; there's just something missing

Would you also be able to create a very simple, clean concept? Something to correspond with the clean look of the website, www.NDAdarts.com? This doesn't have to be the blue/red color scheme though, Check out the "Join the NDA" tab on the home page. We like the abstract look of that logo and are open to seeing something like that!

Thanks!

Here is one more abstract like you asked for. didn't include darts in this one to keep it simple. can always change the color scheme easily.

here is one last option with a bunch of colors.
FYI: I will be traveling for Christmas today and won't be back at a computer until the day after Christmas. I can make further revisions then should you require any.

Thanks,
Kyle

We really like the abstract design in #26. We don't care for the colors of the dart board. Can you change the board to neutral colors such as black and grays? Could we also see a black and white and grayscale version? Thanks!

Client
Could we also see another version in the color scheme mentioned above with a dart cut out of the word dart?
13 years ago
 
Logo Designer
i will upload variations as you requested today, but i cannot take the elements from #2 as they are not my design and would therefore be against the rules. i will try to incorporate a dart in another way tho as to not infringe on the other designers design.

thanks.

Thanks. We're open to alternate suggestions.

should point out dart is hidden between the A & R in DART and it sits vertical with the tail end as part of the A in TEAM.

Let me know if you have any other requests.

Client
We really like the new look with the gray board and the dart in #33. Could we see a version of #33 without the dartboard and make the hidden dart stand out a little more? Could we also see this with the board centered behind the text?

centered

with slightly more detail in dart.

on black just so you can see

(This comment references Entry #37)

Logo Designer
here is a 1 color version. i think it looks really sharp and would work pretty well at a reduced size, save for the NDA logo probably being too small at a smaller size. and FYI i redid the NDA logo so i could show it to you in all 1 color, so it is not the exact 'official' logo like you supplied us with, so i would need teh source file of that logo to change it to 1 color.

more bright color options.

here is one with some color added to the board just so you can see how it looks.

Client
We really like #40. The board doesn't seem to fit with the text. Could you shift the board up so it is centered vertically with the text. And then make it appear so it is standing more vertical rather than tilted back. For the board, we need to keep the light tones, but could you adjust so it follows with the color scheme?

We used the orange/yellow color scheme for the 2011 logo. Could we use a green gradient for Team and 2012 but keep the same color for dart?

here are 3 versions with your request. made the green sort of a 'minty' green. one is all full colors and 2 of them have the dartboard screened back to be lighter, one with a shadow and one without.

Thanks. I think we like the orange best. Can we see a greyscale version and a one color version (black)?

Logo Designer
as requested. IMO the green dart looks better with the orange.
