Hi guys,

Thanks for hopping in on this one. Appreciate it:)

Ok, for a little feedback:

Giant: Not sure I like the gold/yellow hues. Of the 3 versions I think I dig #1 the most. Could we try something like that with more silvers/blues and then maybe a couple different font options.

Kekepania: I like how clean and sharp this is. Is there any way we can use the the half circles so that they almost represent a D a P and a C for domain portal creator? Like to see how that looks.

Thanks again for getting in guys and looking forward to seeing some other designs as well.

Best,
John

Hey guys,

Thanks for some great work. I'll go ahead and hit on these one by one using the post #'s and I think we're gonna extend this for a few days to help get this down.

#7 - giant - like the color change. just not sure I'm feeling the sun component. I like the font you used but just can't wrap myself around the emblem.

#8 - Kekepania - after conferring with my partner we're not sure that the new design above the font does it for us. I think we're liking it the way it was on post #5 better.

#9 - giant - not liking the flame... feels a little too skateboardy for this.

#10 - giant - like the triangle but the font and color combo makes this feel a little too retro for us.

#11a - giant - we like this one much better... please leave that as is.

#12 - djaka - we really like this concept. Is there any way to make the "Domain Portal Creator" bigger and the "DPC" smaller so that they are slightly closer in size... perhaps drop creator below Domain Portal?

#13 - freetime - we feel like this might be a little cartoony for what we are looking for... can you rework the fonts so it feels more cutting edge?

Thanks again for everyone getting in. Looking forward to seeing some other design ideas as well before we make the final decision.

Best,
John

Sorry freetime - did not see #14. that is definitely more along the lines of what we were looking for. I like this one a lot.

If there are any other design ideas we're certainly open to them.

Thanks,
John

giant -- I REALLY like this idea. Hadn't thought at all about a graphical representation of the word Portal but great idea on your part. Can we try some different fonts with this idea? Something bigger and bolder?

Thanks!
John

Thanks everyone for some great designs. We have made our decision. Giant, your portal visual really grabbed us so we'd like to go with your design. Terrific work.

The one we like best is in post #21, version a, non italicized. So, please let me know what to do to wrap this up. There will be no revisions necessary.

Thanks again to all.

Best,
John
