Great variety of designs! I like that "Virtual" and "Spokespeople" are on separate lines and the character on the left of #2. I like the blue from #1. Maybe also try a version with rich purple (instead of blue) like what is at the top of the website http://www.monster.com/, but with the two text lines and character position of #2.
I like that the character in #6 is easily recongnizable as a person/human. The one in #2 is not as obvious that it is a person, to us.
The "pac-man" mascot/character is a great idea, but we would prefer for a more obvious human character, since the service is producing and streaming a video of a person on/over a web page.
I like the idea of a "thought bubble" to indicate communication.
Please try #20 with the character and thought bubble to the left and break up "Virtual" and "Spokespeople" (see spelling) on to two separate lines to the right of the character.
My team REALLY likes the character and bubble in #6, but we'd like it to be to the left of "Virtual" and "Spokespeople" (spelling) on separate lines, with the character in a tv/monitor -like box (no background in the monitor) and the thought bubble extending out of it like it is higher than the character now (maybe a little smaller). If you could make the font in between #6 and #2, with the two words taking up the same width, it would be great. Thank you for the great entries!!!
Thanks for the new entries. For #64, #65, #66, and #67, can you redo them with "Spokespeople" instead of "Spokepeople" (missing an "s")? Thanks again!!!
Also, on #66, can you do a version with the bubble like on #65 (white in the middle) and the text not italics, with "VIRTUAL" the blue color from the character in #66? Also, the top of "VIRTUAL" should align with the top of the box and the bottom of "SPOKESPEOPLE" should align with the bottom of the box. I think that is what my team was describing!!!
Also, please do a version of what I just described, but with the bubble filled in like it is now in #66, so that the team can see everything at once.
Love #70! Please do a version with a solid play button in the bubble (same color as the bubble - orange-ish), and another with the play button an outline, same color. Also, please make "Spokespeople" the same color as the bubble on these revisions. Getting closer!!! Thanks again for the effort!!!!!
Also, can you make the revisions to #70 have a bit darker blue, like you have in #1? We are waiting on the logo to put the color scheme in the site, and people like the blue from #1 ;)
Thanks for asking... meant the edging, how #70 is much clearer. We'd like the "Spokespeople" text in #87 to be clear like that, but with the orange color from the bubble so that it balances the logo out.
One of our team just said that maybe it is too dithered or rastarized... don't know what that means.
Basically, just want "Spokespeople" to look like #70 but orange, in the #87 design.
I hope this can help. I put more red on 'SPOKESPEOPLE' orange, and eliminated the gradient. Look Solid orange and still match with the bubble color I think ....
Sorry, I'm not good at being clear on design terms. If you can replace the "Spokespeople" text in #87 with the "Spokespeople" text in #70, and then change it to orange, I think that will do it.
The issue is that the edges are making it harder to read than the text in #70, and we want it to be very clear. That is a big reason we like the character in #87, it is very clean.
Maybe the term is crisp, or maybe sharp, instead of smooth, or strong.
Several designers used a character in the monitor, and your character is totally unique so it is a completely different feel than the more human-like characters in the contest. Please put one up per my last request, but without the play button, so that my team can see in our review meeting in 10 minutes. Please!!! ;)
Thank you for #96, however can you remove any effects you have on "Spokespeople" other than the color as orange. I'd like to see one where there isn't any edging blur... just like your original #70. Thanks again for reposting it!!!
