Hi,

if you are incorporating an arrow at all I uploaded some reference photos of looks we like for the arrow in particular.

Thanks!

Hi,

Another note, we want to see logos that are more in the green/light green family. Thanks!

Hi,

Keep thinking outside of the box. Don't be afraid to choose any type of picture/image/symbol. Think abstract and again don't feel like you have to incorporate the "N." Also, feel free to play with different colors outside of just blue/grey/black. Thanks for all the submissions so far!

Just to clarify, the first two uploaded photos are murals that we currently have in our office. I've uploaded them for some inspiration but please keep in mind all of the other comments.

Hi,

Glad to see a lot more submissions but I don't think we are getting closer to what we want. We'd like to see simple logos (no shine or 3D). Don't feel like you HAVE to create a symbol that relates directly to the "N" in North. Uploading some reference photos soon.

Everything's looking good. My advice would be if you are going to submit more than one logo we would rather see two entirely different looks than see two similar logos that have slight variations. Tweaking, i.e. having a shadow effect vs. not having a shadow effect will come in the later stages of the competition. Right now aim for different! Thanks!

Hi,

#14 and #6 are heading in a good direction. Think a bit more abstract and feel free to play with symbols/images that could represent the company name. We want to steer clear of looking too corporate but we don't want anything too complicated or intricate.

Welcome and Thank You for Choosing LogoContest.com!

Here are some helpful hints to make sure you get the most out of our site, and your contest.

DO NOT FINALIZE YOUR CONTEST UNTIL ALL REVISIONS ARE MADE AND THE EXACT DESIGN YOU WANT IS SHOWING AND SELECTED.

1. Please rank your submissions or post general comments a minimum of 1 time per day while your contest is running. This is required should you want to request an extension to your contest and will produce the best results from our designers.

2. Once your contest receives 40 design concepts, your prize amount will become "Guaranteed".

3. Please make the most out of our messaging and comment systems.

a) Place general comments on this main contest page to give all of the designers your preferences and what you would like to see or not see.

b) Clicking on any designers submssion will bring up a page of all submissions by that designer with an option to post private comments pertaining only to his work. (Only the contest Holder and that designer can view and post to this page)

c) Clicking on the designer username under a submission will allow you to send a completely private message to that specific designer.

4. Please "Eliminate" only those logo designs that you feel have no chance of winning your contest. (Be aware that eliminating everything may discourage participation from the designers.)

5. Please rank the designs 1 to 10 and there are also options to rank Elements you like, Colors you like, and Fonts you like. This will help guide the designers toward the design that you are looking for. For the best variety of designs, try not to keep the same design ranked #1 for an extended time as this may result in copying of that design.

6. We require that you do not ask one Designer to use elements or concepts from another Designer. The general rule is that, if a Designer was the first to use and submit the idea in one of their designs, they essentially own that concept or idea for the remainder of the contest. We will remove any deisgns that use copied concepts. Requests or ideas you have put in your Contest Brief or posted as contest attachments are fair game and open to everyone. Concepts that are considered obvious will also be fair game, for example: a dog & cat for a pet hospital, shopping bag for an e-commerce company, a tooth for a dentist, initials for a lawyer, etc.

7. Once your contest ends and is in judging mode, any designer that is ranked #1 #2 #3 #4 or #5 will be able to upload any revisions you request. Simply rank a designers entry to allow revisions to be uploaded.

 

Discussion Guidelines:

1. Designers and Contest Holders please always be respectful of each other, we all have the same goal.

2. Please do not criticize any design publicly, these discussions should only be held in private.

3. Designers may not post any external links to any designs.

4. Please do not ask a contest holder to view your designs or discuss any other designs.

5. Designers can not discuss copied designs on the contest pages and may submit a Logo Dispute to the Admin only.

 

Our team at LogoContest.com as well as our designers will make sure you are 100% satisfied and want you to leave here with a design that you love!

Please recommend us to your friends and business associates for all of their logo design and web page design needs.
