Hi there! The monkey looks like a lion with a curly tail! ;) ...a confused lion in the first one, and a sleepy one in the other! I like more movement, and color...and I would like the logo to depict, at least symbolically, what we do! Thanks so much for the submission! I'd love to see more!
You're adorable...:-) he is cute but maybe a bit too masculine? He looks like a proud monkey who just scored a girl!!! Lol! Still not what I'm looking for but keep him up as I am having everybody here weigh in! They may disagree!
I really would be open to a world in there. Have you seen the Firefox logo? Somehowif we could get our branded monkey in there with the world representing that we are connecting the work...hmmm...just sorta thinking! Thank you so much! Michelle
Hey! Thanks for the amazing submissions! I didn't realize you did not get overall feedback. I will continue to update the public comments, but here is the synopsis so far!
Michelle
A bit of feedback...
#1 and it's sisters are too busy..too much going on, for my eye. I am looking for something perhaps a bit mre sophisticated. The monkeys (just want one monkey) look too much like ants to me. But I would love for you to put up the first version so as to allow my other monkeys here to weigh in!
#2 I think I would like to have the monkey to be either sleek and streamlined, (like the guitar log) or with lots of personality. Of some of your past logos, I like Lamin formis, stinger terminator, el rincon postito, homedog.
#7 is more appealing to me, although I can't give any feedback as to why?
#8 I like the monkey less than #7, but leave it up! The Monkey community here in Atlanta has been weighing in, and they are much smarter than I.
#9 is interesting, but too masculine, two "spidermanish"... But you did the masterful music logo, right? ? Growers secret? Masters select? Captain Sea J's? I like all of them!
#10, 12, and 13. The concept of the world and the key is interesting. albeit "rough around the edges". I like a more refined look. And the monkey face is not to my taste. As for the "Gorilla", he's a bit too masculine, and lifelike, meaning that when I see it, and the name, my assumption is that is has something to do with raising money for the gorillas. The other monkey is not very monkey-like to me, and in fact looks like another animal I saw in New Zealand, I think, but can't remember the name. As far as monkey types go, I do prefer interpretations of the chimp version of a monkey better than most of the other types of monkeys, as they seem to have more curiousity, look friendlier, etc. That being said, I still want to stay with an "interpretation" rather than a real life depiction. Thanks again for your good work!
#20-#24- Thanks so much for the first entries. I just can fall in love with your monkey, the colors, or what they are doing, how they are doing it? I'd love to see more of your talent. Let's try something a little bit different. :)
Aww...#25! You've moved to first! Nice job! Buuuuuut... It looks like the monkey is holding on for dear life rather than directing us where to go! What can we do about that? :)
For all, I am wondering what a logo would look like if a personable monkey is sort of wrapped around the globe abstractly, putting a key in the hole, or holding the globe lovingly, or riding a bke with globes as the wheels, or standing on top of the world, juggling differnt "events", . Then it would be really easy to adapt per city, by putting a push pin in the area of the world (where the city would roughly be) with the text reflecting each particular city...Monkeying around Atlanta, for example below. That symbol without a push pin could be the Monkey Trust? Just monkeying around with some ideas... :)
Thanks, all for your awesome effforts! Great initial tries! I commend you for jumping out there and submitting first! This feels a bit like Psychic Charades. I am to get you to guess my thoughts...and I don't know what my thoughts really are! Uggh! Sorry!
