Hi NHR and Giant

I was hoping to get some more sugestions to chose from. That is why I made such a high price......Maybe that is the wrong approach?

At the moment Giant´ s second sugestion is my favourite, but the font needs some work, and it could be nice to see it in some different colour variations

[giant]

Here's from me again... :)
do you have any colors do you like?
and Thank You.

[giant]

one more... :)
and Thank You.

I will work on some concepts and post in the next couple days.

Hi NHR and Giant

Feedback is key for the successful project :)
If you can explain why you like one concept and don't like another, that will be very helpful.
Feedback to every design will be perfect.

Also, shorter deadline is better. Right now, all have the time to enter your project later...

Just my opinion after 3 great years here :)
Thank you.

I think everyones a little busy with the holidays, here's a couple from me :)

[Caspergron]

Ok.
Thanks for your reply NHR. Here are my feedbacks:

It is a little bit diffcult to put words on what works and what doesnt work, especially because there are good ideas "and work" behind every one f your suggestions....

NHR Suggestion 1
The font is not working for me, it is too simple.
The logo idea is ok, but not exceptionel.

NHR Suggestion 2
I like the idea behind the logo, but cant see is as our new logo. Maybe I am more into round edges than these sharp high tech ones

Giant Suggestion1
Yes logo is close to something that work for me, but not quit there. The font is to simple and the colours are not my style. Would like warmer colours

Giant suggestion 2
Yes, I really like the logo- its very simple yet illustrative. Dont know about the colours, because the intire website will be build based on the logo, and I cant imagine it with thee colours. The font is to simple- Would like to see it with different colours and fonts . Tjeck this suggestion out:

Giant Suggestion 3
Cant see the idea with the headphones.
I like the font

Giant Suggestion 2.1
Yes like the colours
Dont like the font

Giant Suggestion 4
Font is to hightech

Glyphica suggestion 1
Very good quality logo....I can see you have worked with the details.
But it is just not working for me...Cant put my finger on what it is.

Glyphica suggestion 2
the colours didnt make it better....It has to be varm colours

Heer's from me again... :)
and Thank You.

Hallo all designers
I am back from vacation

Thank you very much for your many and creative suggestions.

My favourite is by far Tinis (version 1 and version 2)
Do you think you could create a mix of the two??

This is only a suggestion that I am not sure if it will work

Take version 2
Remove the star below the "y"
Remove the tagline
Remove the little man on the left side of the big man, and put in a man on the right side like in version 1.
Maybe put in two stars as the middle of the two O´s in "good".....
Maybe make some kind of circle around the two men....the circle could go behind the font, or it could go around the two men giving a kind of 3d effect to it (if the highest part of the circle is behind the men and lowest part of the circle is in front of the men)
Maybe play with this....it is a good thing if we can indicate that the two "men" are beeing connected to eachother (meaning that on this system you can find the right supplier for your event)

[nhr]

:cool:

[tini1]

thank you for your feedback.....here is a variation:)

[pracus]

please enjoy the good part of MyGoodParty! :)

[tini1]

Here is a circle added to element...;)

[Caspergron]

Hi Tini

Ok, it looks good, but I might have my own designer do some minor changes. Can I get the different variations?
I am very happy with the outcome.

(BTW thanks to Pracus and NHR for given it a last shot, not bad logos at all, but Tinis is still my favourite)

[tini1]

Hi caspergron:) Thank you for choosing my design for your logo, I'd be more than happy to make any tweaks/changes (rather than your designer).....could you please let me know exactly which variations you'd like me to include in your logo package?:)
Thanks again:)missy/tini1

[Paula23]

This project is now in the "Revisions Forum"
Please drop a note in the thread to let us know once it's finalized and the files have been received/

Thanks!

Congratulations Missy:)

[Caspergron]

Hi Tini
Well it is a great logo.

I have been showing it to some people and would be nice if you could make a version with theese ajustments

I like that the small man is on the right side of the big man, and I like that the small man is smilling aswell. So let try this:

Take version 4
Remove the circle
Remove the "star" and the "@" above the men.
Give the big man the same size and position as he has on version 2
Put in a small smilling man on the right side of the big man. Somewhere above the words "my"
Take away the star in the "o"
And put in the tag line again

hmmmm, it will probably end up looking alot like version 2 just with the small man on the right side.
But I think that will work

[tini1]

Hello:)here are the revisions...let me know if you'd like to see anything else...:)

[tini1]

[Caspergron]

[tini1]

Great:) I will send a logo package that includes both psds, and eps files:)
Could you please let me know which variation, final1a or final1b???
Thanks so much:)missy

[Caspergron]
