Firstly :> I would like to thank You all for the your promtly submission. I am very excited already based on the quality of the above post.

ondarox : > Thank you for the submission. Weldone design and example with Cell :). I have discussed with my Team, they also like the design but we dont like the sphares. We think its looks somewhat cool but its been over used or something. We dont feel good about it but, need to admit it look good there.

We could like to see some differen shape :-) other than that it looks great.


wwwzone : Thank you for the entry. I am not sure this is what we are looking for. The idea is good, but it does not match our style. Again Thank you.

Your concern and feedback are welcome. Feel free to reply back

goat!

[xerophyte]

ondarox : > Thanks for the modification, but Text part is looks great, but the logo part should reflect the number 5. Penguin looks good. But it does not go together for lncare logo. Something simple picture, which represent 5, would be great.

dynagirl :> Thank you for the submission. Logo looks great but its not proportional in size. I mean the picture on the top is too big compare to the text. Unnecessary color fill for the rectangle shape.


wwwzone:> above reply kind of apply to your logo too.

feel free to reply back.

xerophyte

[Radu]

[Taldo]

simple..with 5 elements grouped together to make one.

HIIIII!!!!!!!

[xerophyte]

Wow all cool designs, Thank you for the submissions and your time ( we are really impressed) . Lets review the our designs.



ondarox :> We are getting close, that cable picture looks better than spheres, One of our Team member told me, but we don’t do cabling for the Networks. We only provide support for the servers (e.g. web-server ,email server, security patch, and upgrades). Again we like the text, if we can work on the picture part of the logo that would be awesome. Could we see the logo in the blue, like the frist logo.


Taldo :> Thank for the submission its looks great, but the representation of 5 looks good but. Does not match the Linux network Care

P.S:
Okay we like the Text part of the Ondarox Logo, but that logo needs some work for the Picture part.

[The_Dude]

Simple as requested.

[Taldo]

more 5's!

[Raja]

egg legs!

In point 3 of his detail, he says >> 3) Picture representation of 5 elements, not numerical 5

That's what I'm talkin' about

[FTIGraphix]

well good...I'm glad you finally took the time to read the description of what he wanted :P

I apologize for the late feedback. Again thank you all for the submissions and your time.

RadicalSEED :> Thanks for the logo, we have 5 members in our Team. One of them is a gal :) and she liked your design :). But others think it's a good design too, but it isn't the right fit for a network support company.


ondarox :> We have thumbs up for the Text part of the logo as we mentioned before, but we still need something slick with the graphical part. So far we like your 3rd logo. But could you please try to come up with some slick in terms of graphics :). Could you please design the 3rd logo in blue color like the first one?

Taldo :> Thanks for the modification, but logos somehow look a little bit blurred, we need it to standout. I don’t know how to express that. You know some logos are so simple but so good. For example Nike, and Motorola.

The_Dude :> After Ondarox's logo, our team likes your logo. But we don’t like the color fill, because it will not fit in some background. It will not match with the backgrounds. We would like to see something without the color fill.

wwwzone :> We like your ideas but the logos are not compact and our company name is " Linux Network Care", not "Linux care Network". :) We know, you made a typo. Just trying to be a picky group LoL.

dynagirl :> Wave design looks good but somehow we feel it does not go together with Linux Network Care text.


Still looking for perfect fit, sorry to bug you too much.

Regards
xerophyte.

I think Raja is asking what the 5 represents? (He's so simple. I can read him like a book :lol: )

[Tyler]

Another couple ideas

Just to say, i'll be entering this in the morning (28th). :)

Thanks Xerophyte, did anyone say that to you? If so I'd like to know about it :)

That's very generous offering the hosting for the runner-ups. That was very nice and I'm sure will come in good use for the designers that received the hosting. Looking forward to your next contest. Best of luck with Linusnetworkcare.com :tup:

Oh yeah, almost forgot. Congrats Raja! :notworthy:

[Raja]
