Hi. Thanks for your submission. I like what you did here. Can I ask you to go a couple of ways with #84?

I like it better without the little stinger on the V, but I might like the stinger on the Z's.... I was not sure at first but it's grown on me quickly.

#84, add stingers on the Z's, turn the M just slightly more right, like you have on #86 & #85. I do like the yellow text box under Media. Also, What about adding the M, to the yellow text box of the graphic... I'll use the graphic sometimes to identify my business without the name.

Thanks so much!!!

Glad you like it! I certainly can do that - easy changes. However, it might be a couple hours before I am able to work on it - will get to it ASAP :)

Thanks. I'm moving #84 to #1 ranking right now because I understand that when contest closes only the #1 can be tweaked. I'm really leaning toward this because I never said it but I had in the back of my head... it would be great to incorporate the SMS text boxes in some manner... you figured it out and did it.

My "focus group" likes it too.

Feel free to ask for any other little tweaks! Thanks for the great feedback!

Here is one variation with the letter "M" in the yellow text box

another variation with the letter "M" as the "bee" in the yellow text box

Client
I'm loving #96. Is there any way to add the M/bee that the M represents... to the graphic up top? I expect to use the text and the graphic both together and separately so I want to be identifiable using either individually as well as both together.

One friend said that the tag line was a little small if you have any ideas for that. My focus group is really split between yours & FreshDesigns. I can't go wrong either way. I wish I had found this tool three months ago!!!

Thank you!!

I like that better #119, it tightened up. Do you think the graphic above would be better if the M was all inside the bubble, like you have in #110?

Thanks again!!

here is a version with the bee inside the bubble, to see if this is a better fit.

Thanks "squarerfish"... so what I've learned is we can do a couple of tweaks since I have you ranked as #1. I really like what you've done so I'm pretty confident we've got something here.
My buddy was just here and pointed out the M from #86. Would you mind trying that again in the #1 ranked design?

Also, can you show me what the yellow "bubble" with the M from #1 ranked would look like on its own as an avatar?

Thanks very much!!!

I'm very happy you all like the look - I am very pleased with the way it turned out also...

Please let me know if I misunderstood your requests. I know when my wife asks me to do something, she often has a completely different picture in her head of what she is looking for. :)

blue bubble avatar?

Can you give me an example of how/where you might use it?

I love #147!!! Very clever! I'm torn whether it would be the three boxes (entire graphic) or one box (partial). So you can go on Facebook or LinkedIn and search Venture Buzz Media. Right now I have the name written in the sand... but I'd be using it on the various social sites... since I'm promoting the use of social web for business.

You can't load an entire logo in most cases because by the time it's cropped to various parameters it's not distinguishable.

At the same time, my new business blog... www.venturebuzzmedia.wordpress.com only allows the horizontal graphic to be loaded for my blog format. So I want a theme of consistency while being able to use a square or horizontal image based on constraints. That's why I love what you've put together. The theme carries from the top graphic to the contextual logo.

Let's nail this down and then I'll ask about your web development skills (I'm on the business/usability side but my website shows my lack of technical skill... 14 years of corporate america I only dictated/facilitated the specs...) Besides the pitiful state of my own site (which is embarrassing) I also have clients I do usability for... and they want to know WHO can implement my recommendations... I'm still building my partnership base for referrals... but so far, I love your work!

I'm excited to nail this down as I ran out of my temporary card/brochure stock today... but I don't know if you are East coast or Pacific... so we an refine over the next few days if you have family commitments.... I'll be working most of the weekend ;-)

Thanks!

I just took another look at #146... perhaps try the green & blue bubbles on the bottom, but the yellow for the M/bee and the top bubble... as an example of what the 3 bubble avatar could look like. Thanks!!

I am actually in Charlotte, and we have a friend in common (according to facebook) - Penny?
I used to work with her over at a startup company a few years ago.
How funny!

My name is Brian, and I am actually a .net web application developer by trade :)

You can probably even get away with using different avatars - 1 bubble or 3 bubble - depending on the size requirements of each site...

Excellent! Penny & I worked in eCom at BAC together the last few years. Thanks Brian. I've been on this Mashable chat for the last hour+ with the launch of the FB vanity URL... sadly very fun! I'll talk to you soon. Thanks!

Are these comments visible to anyone? I was under the assumption they were between the CH & LD.

Regardless...
#148... the yellow bubble does not go with the yellow M. Perhaps we make the yellow bubble blue instead? Not sure if we should go with all blue bubbles or leave one of them green... what do you think?

Also, for #145... can you change Media to look like the Media in #86 (just want to see if it would be better that way...

That's it for now. Thanks! Hope you are having a good weekend!

I think these comments are visible, you would have to send a Private Message to be unseen.

I think I like the all blue - and I created another one wih orange that I like as well. #150
With three colors, it seems to convey the social aspect to me more.

Client
I agree, I like #150.... I believe that's what I was going for... can you add that to #149? I think this might be it... BUT...
the only thing I want to see would be #145 with the yellow M but a different color bubble around the word... maybe the blue or orange? And of course, replace the top graphic on that with #150 also.

Are you tired of me yet? Thank you!!

Great! Thanks very much - you made the process easy and fun.
I have uploaded the files, so when you think you have everything you need, I think you have to click "Approve" somewhere... this automatically releases the prize money to my paypal.

Of course, don't hesitate to contact me for any tweaks or anything - if you need the file in a different format, or different background, etc.

Thanks again!
