[Project Complete] logo needed for favor/gift business $125- May 15

[lilthorner]

(Amin code added by Michael - M3448071X)

Hi, I have a business called highly favor-ed (favored). my business is creating favors and gifts for any occasion. I currently have a logo that utilizes the initials "hf" and a background photo of some candy items I wrapped.

I don't do "only" candy wrapping, so I would like to change the logo. you can see the current logo here www.highlyfavor-ed.com

tagline: my tagline is "...making your party dreams soar" This doesn't necessarily have to be included in the logo

deadline- May 15, 2005i would like the logo to contain the name, but also incorporate the initials, so I can use just the intial part (the initials are crucial)

colors: my favorite colors are blue and pink, so I would like to incorporate blues, or both blues and pinks in the logo, no pinks alone. I want to be able to use it on any background. (transparent). I would also like a grayscale copy.

logo feel: I would like the logo to be friendly, not "kiddy" but not ultra sofisticated. I am a home based business, with a plan to open a storefront.

format:Vector format as well as JPG and GIF for site usage. I would need to know the CMYK and RGB color codes for the logo as well as the font file if it is something I dont have on my computer, so I can redo my site and business cards

does it usually take before someone gets a reply? Im nervous.. Or maybe I'm just anxious... Is anyone there? Im moving to the 2nd page ;)

Hi,
I'll have something for you tomorrow :)

Thanks,Paula

[lilthorner]

thank you for your response Paula.. I'll be patient :)

[Jsanqunetti]

I will be working on this one too

[Paula23]

Here a few designs to start things off.
Let me know if these are moving in the right direction.

Thanks,Paula

Hi Paula

I like the ones that dont look like presents.. I am looking for something a little less contained. I would like the initials to be contained, so I could use that part separately if I choose... I do like the way you have those initials though

[lilthorner]

Also, Paula, can u try to do the initial in two separate colors ( the F one color and the H one color

TIA

[Paula23]

Are you wanting the logo to match the look and colors of you current website?

Thanks,Paula

[lilthorner]

Hi Paula,

the logo doesnt have to "match" the colors or look of the current site.. That can be changed

The hf with the candy background is basically all that I use currently.. I change the font to match whatever I am placing it on.

I like these last revisions, although my people that I am asking feedback from say that the initials look like an "A" I do like the little shape that they are in though

Paula,

I like the change in the initials it looks better like that, but I don't care that much for the font. Can we try another font?

Kassi,

I really like the samples that you have provided. My husband loves the initials that you used in the shape, but we think the shapes are either too plain or too fancy (the middle one?) can u make a shape more along the lines (not exactly the same) as what Paula has done?

anyone else? Jsanqunetti?

I will be extending the deadline. do I just change it in the first post?

[Jsanqunetti]

I will have somehting for you in a bit :)

Thanks for the feedback! I 'll have those revisions for you first thing when I get home tonight (I'm heading to work right now).

Here are some different versions of the "initials icon". The difference between A and B in each section is the fill in the lettering (solid or white). Let me know if any of these samples interest you or if you have any suggestions. Many thanks!

Hey Kassi,

Can I see logo number 2 above with the number 5 initials? Also, do u have any other font types that would look good intertwined?

Jsanqunetti,

those designs are nice, but they are not really what I am looking for. Do you have anything similar (yet different) from what the others are offering?

Paula,

do u have anything up and down, with the initial logo on the top and the text on the bottom? i think I am really liking that idea.

this is harder than I thought... everything is so good.. I'm just like WHOA, when I look at each one.

[lilthorner]

one more thing.. for everybody I usually only use lowercase letters.. Unless of course, the font we choose has uppercase only

[Kassi]

Here are the requested variations. I searched for some other fonts but have not yet found any (upper or lower case) that fit together as nicely. I will keep looking ... Feel free to let me know if you would like to see any other variations or changes.

Thanks again!
Kassi

[lilthorner]

oooh kassi I like 5d... one favor.. can u put the initials of 5c onto 5d and make the letters pink instead of blue.. also, can u make "making lowercase and add 3 dots (...) in front of it

[Kassi]

Certainly :) , here you are.

[lilthorner]

Kassi,

I do believe I would like to have 6.1 b.. the only change is I would like the tag line to be blue, unless there could be a shadow or something to make it stand out more. also, can you remove the period at the end?

[Paula23]

:)

[Jsanqunetti]

here is another attempt, see if this is closer to what you want.

j,

those are nice, but still a tad bit too frilly for me... I do believe I would like to go with kassi. I will be ending this tonight or tomorrow.. I'm still trying to find the link..

Thank you j and paula for your submissions...I love your work on here1

[lilthorner]

I have reinstated the deadline to 5/15.. I really need to get this done..

[Kassi]

Here are some different looks for the slogan. A or B would probably be most efficient, C is nice but would probably be lost when reduced to business card size.

Let me know what you decide and I can finalize the logo. Are there any particular formats would you like me to have prepared for you (what will you be using the logo for)?

Thanks!
Kassi

:)

[lilthorner]

Thank you everyone else as well.. I have chosen kassi to complete thi design.. I thought I had to find a link, but I was wrong..

Thank you very much Kassi..... a is fine.. I may have an idea for c on business cards though..I would like to have c available for web..

I am going to be using this on business cards, fliers, garments and my site. I need it in vector format, so I can work with it at virtually any size, as I usually design my own cards and fliers... I use Photoshop 7 as well as Paint Shop Pro when designing my fliers and such..


can u also tell me what fonts are used?

[Kassi]

Thank you for the opportunity to design your logo, I'm pleased that you have found what you are looking for. This is very exciting! Tomorrow Michael will be providing me with details of where I can upload the files for you, as this is all new to me.

I will provide you with both versions of the logo as shown with the gradients, flat colours, and black & white as well, in vector format for you to use as you wish.

The fonts I used for the initials are MurrayHill Bd BT, tweaked of course to have them intertwined, Imprint MT Shadow for the company name, and Century Gothic for the slogan. I will include all of the details with the file.

Other than that, let me know if you would like any final revisions. I think there is a button somewhere for you to confirm that the project is complete, but I am not sure?

We'll be in touch tomorrow. Thank you again so much for this opportunity!

Kassi :D

[Kassi]

I have the files ready and will be sending you the link via PM.

Thanks again! :D

Kassi

[lilthorner]

I got the files and were able to open them with no problem... Thanks Kassi!!

This project is now complete
