Very Nice! I love it. If you don't mind please use the font layout from #32 on the green and black dogs on # 31. And if you could just tweak the color of the green to bit brighter, more lime green.
Thank you for changing the green -- yes it is better! I do have a change request -- I really like the playfulness of the dogs in this one. The font itself seems a bit too "bulky" if that makes sense. It also has a military or police feel to the K9 and I wonder if the lettering could be changed de-emphasize the word "the" and to use an alternative font that is a bit more modern or relates to the playfulness (without using curlz -- as that font is used by a local competitor in town)
#36 #37 Hi, here are the changes to the font, and when I was at the dog park yesterday I saw a dachshund jumping and I couldn't resist trying that...Thanks so much.. Peg
Thank you! Again. I like the K9 better -- but wondering if the "coach" part will be ligible when in prints small on a business card. It's so hard to refine -- I know I can ask you to copy someone else's design, but some of the fonts are just a bit cleaner. I do like your dogs though -- a LOT!
I like the jumping doxie -- but I do think they need a background so that when it's printed or put on the car wrap will have some definition to stand out against.
I wonder if some sort of gradient in the background would be interesting?
Not sure what happens in Phase 2 -- maybe those are things we can explore.
#43 -- I like the change of the tail. Don't know if it would be a problem in making it curl up over his back on #44 (Or does that conflict with other desginers?) It just a natural posture for the tail. Don't like the two level green background.
#44 is my favorite so far! It seem to capture the strong profile of the dane and dachshund. Easily distinguishable as what they are, and yet captures the fun/playful element as well.
i keep studying 44 and 33 and the fonts. Would you please try the "K9" lettering from # 42, between "the coach" lettering from # 33 and then a slimmer version / less bold of the same font family as "the coach" for the "Training Happy K9 Families" lettering?
if you haven't noticed yours is my favorite so far and continues to be. I just love the way the "K9" looks on # 42 and #43 and I'm wondering if it would be against rules for you to now create a change where the word "the" is smaller / de-emphasized maybe sitting atop the K9 or rotated vertically against it (not sure that's possible since it was done on by other designers before the contest closed. But I really , really like that look.
I know you must feel like I'm picking at nits, but a friend just reminded me that the way the tail curls in #75 to the side, in doggie language means they are about to fight. It it's curled up over the back it's playful. I know these are technicalities and may feel like it's creating some conflict with other designs, but it's really just a refinement in dog language I hope we can get by with adjusting without having logo court!
That change and adding back the royal blue color to the lettering I think might take us to a final version.
