As of this morning, I've moved your entry
#155 to first rank, in hopes that you can update it just a bit. I'd really like to make my final decision today. It's between you and one other. Here is what I like about your version
#155: It is clean, strong and contained, While it is clearly custom to us and reminds one of the roundtable, with eight participants, it also reminds of a compass (for direction/clarity) and a ship's wheel (for leadership/control. That is all good! Now, it it would not be too much trouble, I'd like to see what it would look like if the heads were looking less down on the table and a bit more atop (but slightly toward the front?) of the shoulders, hoping this will show the members being interested and focused, but not submissive or tired, without losing the strong elements I like as mentioned above. The black is strong, yet I wonder what some slight inclusion of blue might do for us. Could I see a few different versions?
Respectfully yours, MM
