Ladies and gents, We're near closing. I haven’t ranked the latest submissions which doesn't reflect on their quality rather a lack of time on my side - but they are really close/if not exactly what we want.

We'll have a meeting with some core people and choose later today/tomorrow morning and rank again.

I would like to express a warm word of thanks to all of you who have been so proactive in handling our, for want of a better word, "nuances"!

We really like the use of the Kanji symbol...but would like to expand on the idea of replacing the "TO" with this symbol.

Perhaps we can somehow incorporate the Kanji Symbol for stone (http://www.japanese-language.aiyori.org/kanji-stone.html) into the "O". It can form the O or have the "O" as a boundary with the symbol inside? Artistic liberty is yours as always....

Remember, FONT = Felix Titling, normal (not bold), UPPERCASE, Black.

Other elements can be gray or orange.

We really like the subtle changes to the characters "E" and "O" as touched upon in 193, 199, 198, 205.

We have decided against the row/path of pebbles due to the negative connotations;)

Please remember: UPPERCASE, FELIX TITLING, the correct shade of orange (See below)

Just to confirm. We would like to seee variations of the use of the letter "O" in STONE as demonstrated in #144 By RSALOM and partially in #43 by Iconic designs

Firstly many thanks for your efforts - they have all helped to gain a better understanding of what we are looking for.

We really would like to explore further variations on the #144 with the O in stone.

We are now firmly in favour of the use of:

-FONT: Felix Titling (standard - no bold or italic) as a font http://fontzone.net/font-details/Felix+Titling/

-Black font on white
-the orange colour from Submission # 38

A marketing mgr expressed line of thought for the use of Pi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi) coupled with elements of Stone Henge (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_Henge). Perhaps someone could explore?

Thanks for your efforts so far. We would like to see some variations on submissions 19 and 20. The concept of bridging looks good.

One other point, though not yet demostrated, please avoid anything to do with the initials "SS"

We like the concept of stones / paving slabs (though we are open to other concepts).

We prefer without underlining (or a line under the text)

We are not keen on stars/flame/arrows.

Further preferences on font.

There also seems to be a preference towards STEPPING STONE being uppercase.

We are quite partial towards fonts similar to Felix Titling and IrisUPS (See links below). This is not restricted but more of a guideline.

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.

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 revisions to designs that you request from the designers can be emailed to support AT(@) logocontest.com and we will enter them into your contest for you.

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.
