I like this. It's a really different look. I really think you could be a contender here...
But I don't think the blank ball splashing into water says anything about our company. Do you have anything else? Perhaps a camera lens? Or some cut crystal... I know that may sound crazy, but the company was named after Waterford Crystal and it's kind of our thing....
Also, I like the name in all caps, but Waterford font is too plain. Could you try some with a tiny bit more style?
Great job on the lens! But you were closer with the previous font. We think this logo is wonderful, but it is more whimsical than we want to have for our company....
Also I like the green splash better. Can you switch colors and make the splash green and the lens grey or white (or both)....
Finally, someone said that the splash is so large, it makes them think of Shermin Williams Paints! Can you make the splash smaller.....
We are very interested in the possibilities for your design and aren't simply trying to make you jump thru hoops. Thanks....
