  1. Keep in mind that it's now fast approaching the weekend in Australia, so you might not get feedback for a few days. Unless Jules plans
    on working over the weekend :)

  5. Thanks guys - there is excellent work here. I'm confident the client is going to be really excited when he sees them on Thursday.

    I will endeavor to provide feedback to every one today. Publically, I'd like to indicate my favourites...

    - intrepidguppy #4
    - raindropz #2
    - ulahts #1 #2 #3
    - Mafisto #1
    - logoholik #2
    - M.Mahgoub #2

    Great work.

    Here's a tip: If you are using a map of Australia, you must include Tasmania! That's the little island in the bottom right corner :)

  6. A couple more tips:

    1) The word "Toolbar" should be just as prominent as "NRM".

    2) Don't worry about trying to make your logo work on the screen shot provided in the brief - submit your designs on a white background.

  7. Hi Everyone,

    I'm really pleased with the high quality and number of entries we have here. It will certainly be difficult to choose a winner!

    I think the stand-outs (top 10%) are:

    - logoholik #2
    - M.Mahgoub #6
    - ulahts #7
    - ulahts #8
    - ulahts #9
    - raindropz #3
    - silverback #1
    - wolv #5
    - wolv #6
    - Sempliok #5
    - LJK #3

    ...but that is just me :)

    I'm thinking we won't need 2 weeks. Would anyone object to closing the contest at the end of this week?

  16. Hi Everyone,

    One day to go! I'm very impressed by the standard of entries. Last week I sent through a shortlist of 30 designs that (in my opinion) were of a high enough standard to the client and they were very happy.

    So tomorrow, once the competition closes, the client is going to have a look at all 170-180 designs. He (and a handful of his colleagues) will shortlist a small number of entries. On Wednesday (21/3/2007) the shortlisted designs will be presented to the rest of the organization.

    We hope to announce a winner on Wednesday (21/3/2007) Australian Eastern Standard time.

  18. sorry bout that, with too many variants I can't seem to see all similar entries... and look at my previous ones, it inspired a current crop of almost similar designs...

  21. As always Ulaht's great work, without the competition you provide
    i doubt the entries would be half as good as they are!

    Congratualtions to Wolv and Ega,
    next time we'll beat him.... next time *EG.

  26. Not sure if any of you will be notified of this post but I'm trying to track down a design that was submitted for this contest last year. It no longer appears in the list above so presumably, it has been removed by the designer.

    The design consists of a 3 dimensional triangular arrangement of spheres and connectors - a bit like chemistry molecules - with a map of Australia in the middle.

    The client wants to use it for another project. You'll be compensated accordingly!

    Please message me if the design is yours.

    Best Regards,

    Julian
