xpressions,
thanks for your submission. i like your initial design....very clean with simple lines. i think the color for the word 'True' is a little light...can you make it a darker shade of blue or maybe an aqua marine type blue - like a blue/green?
i also liked the water droplets - they are great - it gave me the idea of incorporating some bubbles or something... i'm not sure exactly what i'm looking for but i can say you are definitely on the right track.

Thanks, and i look forward to seeing what you come up with....

great job...i really like what you've all come up with.

xpressions - i really like the second concept you came up with as well as your first one...i've been going back and forth between the 2 of them - they are both awesome.....

plum74 - i really like your design as well but i think there is a pool service company down in obx with a similar logo and wanted something that would set us apart - i like your approach though - would love to see anything else you come up with...

i'm going to take a day to look over these initial designs and talk it over with my business partner.

thanks so much for these designs so far - they are really great.

Thanks to both of the designers for all their great ideas. My business partner and I have decided to go with xpressions logo - version #1....it seemed to match up perfectly with the look we were going for.
