Hi Blesseville,

Thanks for participating. Some feedback on your initial designs.

Version 1 - I'm not keen on this one at all. The style of the star is not what I kind of had in mind and I'm not keen on the font.

Version 2 - Once again the star is not what I'm looking for. The font is more what I was thinking of. I don't particularly want "IT Consulting" on the logo. I would rather keep it generic with just StarInvest.

Version 3 - This star is better, but still not what I'm looking for. Can you also experiment with different colours next time.

I appreciate your time and look forward to your next designs. Thanks.

[StarInvest]

I'd be interested in seeing what other designers may have in mind for my logo. Feel free to experiment with colour and design. I don't have a creative bone in my body so am open to all suggestions.

Hi Guetizo,

Thanks for adding in your designs.

I like the 2-tone of the star in Version 2 better than Version 1.

Could you please show me this version in a few more colours. Thanks in advance.

[StarInvest]

Hi Xpressions,

I like your Version 1, but Version 2 doesn't grab me.

Could you please show me Version 1 with a couple of other fonts. Thanks in advance.

Hi Taldo,

Thank you for submitting your design. This is not quite what I'm looking for.

[StarInvest]

Hi All,

Thank you so much for your time spent on the designs you have submitted.

However, I would like to work closely with xpressions to finalise a logo design based on the designs submitted.

Xpressions, I'd like to talk colour schemes with you. How is the best way to continue this?

Thanks.

[xpressions]

Thank you for selecting my design. An administrator will move this project to the "Revisions" section and we may continue working there. Simply post in this thread what you would like me to do and I will provide you with the revisions as we have done this far.

[StarInvest]

Hi Xpressions,

I would like to work with your Version 3 as I like the font in this version.

Can you please show me this in a few different colours. I'd like to see it in a blue, teal green, and maybe a burnt orange or something like that.

Thanks.

[xpressions]

Here are a few different color combos:

Thanks for the additional colour choices. There are a couple that I like and would like to have a bit of a think about the best one for me going forward. I will make a decision in the next day or so and let you know. I appreciate your time on this. Thank you.

Congratulations Steven.

This thread has been moved to Revisions.

Client, please post a note in the thread once you receieve the finals.

Thanks! :)

[xpressions]

I can provide your logo in different color versions. Which ones did you prefer?

[StarInvest]

I'm trying to decide which combination I like better between 3.0, 3.1, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.7 - I will narrow them down for you by tomorrow. Thanks.

[StarInvest]

Hi Xpressions,

Sorry for the delay. Can you please package versions 3.0, 3.1 and 3.3 - it that's too many then just 3.0 and 3.3 as a preference.

Thanks.

[xpressions]
