XRAY HoldingsLogo Design Contest

Can I ask you what are your thoughts regarding those entries which havent gave any ranking or either in 'Not interest' category??

this contest is a waste of time

I'll second that. I'm learning you have to find out if the CH has good taste before wasting your time.

There are several variables that leads to this kind of decissions from the contest holder:
1 Working with the number one ranked designer in private
2 The contest holder is not the client
3 The contest holder is not open minded
4 The client/competition holder has never seen a logo and he is reluctant to any innovative / new idea; reasons: none
5 Is not interested in something creative or understands creativeness from a subjective point.

I tend to not bother this situations too and work on the submissions...but sometimes it becomes frustrating, i know. Ignorance and misscommunication + missing the opportunity to work with several designers and not just one will only lead into a poor decission.
No offence to the designers!

im not sure if i should be offended or not?

never get offended by anything Sean, life's too short,
offence is just a human notion and emotion.

ulahts wasn't trying to offend, he just likes to commentate
He's usually a good read, and usually puts the copiers in their place too.

I'd like to believe the CH has seen logos he's more than happy with and doesn't
want to stifle the creative flow, and these business types are usually very busy.
And people know you can tweak the winning design after the contest if needed.

thank you bluejet!

yeah, and Sean, I've been seeing many good designs from you lately. and #132 is nicer than the majority here.

please review #350 thanks!

thank you Jakub:) means alot!

Congrats Willy!!! I really was hoping that yours will win! ;)

lol.. and the winner

I think clients shouldn't rank any other designs but the winner. The winning logo might be exactly what they need but most clients aren't really capable of distinguish what a good logo design looks like.
