Bomba, you are talented indeed! You are getting closer to what we have in mind. But please nothing that looks like pizza, because we are not a pizza place. Can you make the legs of the Trinacria the border, and the rest inside? We can also omit the est. 2015 part. But again, you are incredibly talented. Thanks, JC
Just one small clarification - I'm not sure what you mean by "Can you make the legs of the Trinacria the border, and the rest inside?". Also, it wold be great if you told me what design number were you referring to (as I uploaded few different concepts), so I could develop that specific design.
Ok, for example number 21. I like the interior portion with the Italian flag colors and lettering and design. The outer ring is a two color circle. Can you make that circle using the legs of the Trinacria with the orange and yellow Sicilian colors?
Hello John! Thanks for the comment! Here are the changes you requested! Here are new options #27, #28, #29 !-I hope you like it! Thanks again!!! If there`s any other option you would like to see, please let me know. Regards! Bob.
28 is catching my eye! Can you erase the bottom foot? The other 2 have my attention as well, but the rings around the logo would have to be the the colors of the Italian flag
Hello John! Thanks for the comment! Here are the changes you requested! Here are new options #33 , #34 , #35, #36 !-I hope you like it! Thanks again!!! If there`s any other option you would like to see, please let me know. Regards! Bob.
You have Competition now! The wife likes the clean lines of your only competitor! I like both! Wife wants clean and elegant, so how do we do this? I am a huge fan of loyalty and you have been here from the start, which I appreciate.
Here are some cleaner options. I'm working on some more varieties and will upload soon. Thank you for the feedback and for appreciating all the effort I put in your logo so far. Bob.
Ok Bob, we are in a tough spot! The contest is closing soon and you have been here from the beginning with me! Your competitors jumped in at the last moment using what I have ranked off of your work! I told you what is appealing from the others, but they are not quick to respond (worse than me if possible). The wife likes the Trinacria and insert of 48/38, but she likes your wrap around style! So she wants to see something like "UN PIZZICO D'ITALIA" in a single color (red, green, black) circle the top with "A Pinch of Italy" in three colors on the bottom (like 48). Please no plagerism but help me! She is tough to please indeed! Thanks so much, John
During the competition, this area is visibe only to you and me. Once the contest is over, it becomes visible to everyone. So, until you finish the contest you don't have to worry that anyone will see it.
Ok Thanks! To this end I say that you have only one competitor, and that the wife and I differ on opinions although be both agree on the two best! We are excited to go to the next step and see the finalists battle it out! Wondering if the weekend adds some time to compete?
We're in the judging period as far as I can tell! You have only one competitor if we are looming at this correctly! I probably need to reach out to them as well right?
No open phase! Just you and one other! If I read correct we still have time for final mods. If so, please read back and tell me what you think. Bob, thanks for everything; not just as a competitor but as someone who cares and is happy to teach a new person the ropes! Let's see how this plays out! Final decision will be Monday with the wife! Again, thanks!
Ok, as I wrote above: can you this without stepping on toes? Your competition is not too fast to respond (weekend? ) But we have less than 48 to finalize and you are the only one that has been in it thick and thin. Do your magic! I work 24 hours tomorrow so the final judge will see everything Monday AM!
OK John! Thanks for the comment! Here are the changes you requested! Here are new options #60 , #61 , #62 , #63, #64, #65 !-I hope you like it! Thanks again!!! If there`s any other option you would like to see, please let me know. Regards! Bob.
OK John! Thanks for the comment! Here are the changes you requested! Here are new options #74, #75 !-I hope you like it! Thanks again!!! If there`s any other option you would like to see, please let me know. Regards! Bob.
So, I just asked your competition if he could show me a couple of his designs against a black field with the black lettering changed to white. Can you do that to 74 or 75 so I can see the contrast? Thanks, John
Wow Bob! The designs pop on the black! The wife and I are going to have to put these in the ranking. But please help me understand; I am being led to believe that whatever design we choose, we get the ability to work the background or whatever as long as we don't change the artwork in and of itself.
John, are you asking me about changes you are planing to do with the designer of the winning logo, after you select your winning design? If so - after the contest, you can ask for any option that includes change of colors, background, etc. plus multiple file formats which you may be needing for printing, web, etc. That is usually done by sending those additional files directly to Contest Holders personal email, while original winning files are being uploaded on Logo Tournament site.
Ok, reading back I asked a confusing question because I am a confused person. I guess what I really wanted to know is that if we picked a design as presented on a white background, do we have the ability to change color letters if we go to another color background? For example, white shirts and black shirts-the script colors would have to change
Of course! You will get vector files, and any person even slightly skillful in vector program could do it for you.
Other option is to ask designer of the winning logo to provide you both options (for the white and for the dark background), so you don't have to ask around. Like I said, designer of the winning logo should supply you with multiple format options and - if you ask - with different color options.
John, during these 7 days in judging you could ask for some small adjustments or polishing of the designs (no new concepts are allowed). Basically, site is giving you option to choose without rush, or to refine entries with the designers.
Still confused! You wrote designers in plural, does that mean I can bounce back and forth with my selection, or do we need to commit with one and use the week to fine tune?
Yes, you can bounce back and forth, but only designer who is first ranked can upload new entries (meaning you can ask one designer for some changes, put him on no.1 position to upload his designs and then switch back to the other one).
OK John! Thanks for the comment! Here are the changes you requested! Here are new options #86 !-I hope you like it! Thanks again!!! If there`s any other option you would like to see, please let me know. Regards! Bob.

88 is almost perfect, but the "Big Judge" (my wife) would like to see the interior of the "P" back to white only with no flesh tone fill. I am pretty sure you did this before but we are working off the smart phone since our desk computer is not cooperating!
And just a bit more separation between the D'ITALIA meaning to give the accent a little breathing room. It can look closer to "D' ITALIA" with the extra space between the accent and Italia if needed, but in reality the space is more nuanced. Actually, we are talking USA, so let's try the regular type space.
