like the clean look in #87, would be interested to see other graphic options that include some environmental theme

I'd like to, but 12th place isn't going to let me compete in this stage of the contest.

This is a strong mark, just sayin.

I have to say I've had trouble figuring out how this competition works, so did not understand that you could not compete. We've extended our top 5 phase until tomorrow, and I have put your design in the number five slot, so I am hoping you will have time to show me some other ideas. Thanks and sorry for the confusion!

Just so you know, we are interested in the graphic piece showing something environmentally related, since we are grantmaking foundation focused on clean energy and environmental health. Thanks!

Ok, I'm following you. I'm going to try several different things, so I'm not quite done yet.

still not done. I'm just on a drawing kick right now and kind of want to ride it out as long as possible. :)

I had originally intended for #136 to be a leaf in the green part, but it just seemed too predictable. So I tried for an illusion of rows or crops, which I've very happy with and think works quite well. It could symbolize just about anything, an orchard, rows of something, etc. It's very natural, yet simple.

I'm glad you like it. I was very pleased with it.

and I wouldn't completely discount #140. It screams environment, just in a very subtle way. It has a nice modern look to it and I think is something you could get a lot of mileage out of. Just thought I would try and present it a bit different.

Since I'm still not totally understanding how this process works and I can't get a response from LogoTournament, I will ask you. Is it true that we are choosing you as our designer and now we can work with you over the next seven days to come up with a design that we are all happy with? Please let me know if that is what we should do.

Kind of. The 7 day thing is just to keep things moving so contests just dont stall out and never get closed, which happens way more than you can imagine. You can close it now and declare me the winner, or I can still submit revisions based on what you want. It's all pretty flexible.

What can I do for you?
