Thank you for these

I think the colors look different then the ones I posted, and I'd like something a little less "deco" and would prefer the EMA in Capitols

[emaphoto]

just saw this logo designers site and I LOVE the style I see here if this helps

take out the spaces

I shortened my deadline time, hope that was ok.


Kekepania- MUCH more on track with what I had in mind! Love the colors and how you did them. Can I see the EMA in a more scrolly but connected font and the photography more plain.

Any other entries? Keep them coming!

Thank you for joining in Fran

Those are a little too modern for my style. I prefer more classy or whimsical/clean.

[emaphoto]

Thanks for posting more:

Few things

Bluecherry..can you post Version1 using a differnt color for middle with the letters..might be a tad too much of the orange shade

Offbeat...I think Version 2 just needs a bit more to it and the letters in caps
Can I see Version 4 with more of an oval shape and not so swirly letters

Thanks keep them coming! I'm eager to make a decision in the next few days!

Thanks for posting. Not really loving the stars or the curly font.

I'm posting the link to my colors again as I don't like the fushia shown in some of the ones posted.

Thank you all for participating....

I've decided to go with Kekepania Version 10. So let me know how to proceed. Kekepania, can I get that so that the text is editable as are the colors?

[glyphica]

Thanks for choosing my design! :)

Is version 10 good to go with no revisions?

As far as having the fonts editable, unfortunately, I can't send you the actual fonts with the design, it's against DO rules. I can however send you the names of the fonts used and an editable file, if you wish to purchase the fonts. Colors would be editable in the document as well. I will be sending you a variety of file formats that should work for you. Let me know if this works! :)

Thanks!

OK...guess I'm confused. I really don't want to have to purchase fonts, I'd rather use ones that are available for free downloads. Can you tell me the name of the font used as I might want to change the font then. Thanks!

[glyphica]

Basically the file I will be giving you would consist of fonts converted to outlines, so you would not be able to edit the font. You could change the color still though. I'm just not allowed to send you the 'font files'. Does that make sense? So it's not like your going to get your logo and the fonts would be missing, because it would be converted to outlines, which basically makes it an image instead of text. So as long as you aren't going to change the wording on your text, your fine without buying the fonts. Hope that clears things up :confused:

If you need the font names they are: Dalliance Roman and ITC Avant Garde Gothic Book

Thanks!
Stephanie

p.s. are there any revisions?

[emaphoto]

great! No revisions then! Will I be getting the vector files? Let me know where to go from here!

[glyphica]

Files sent through pm to client :)

[emaphoto]

I received my logo! Thank you all so much!!
