Brief Summary

Okay...I really hope I don't offend any of you here as that is really not my intent. But I am thinking the $150 cash paypal or whatever and $250 to spend on my e-commerce site. Who doesn't need a sign or a plaque that they designed?

    #30 is cool as you get the idea it is all about the SIGNS and PLAQUES...#31 I like the fancy A but it is the SIGNS & PLAQUES that is important. Lets take out the division of metal facades as it is probably too much. And try to work in the customASAP.com. But I think unless I was Target or Green Giant or some icon retailer that website addresses and SIGNS & PLAQUES needs to be really really obvious. Go funky with ATLAS if you want but maybe not...as that can become an icon. But you need to consider the audience and the sign needs to convey what we do and that we are not just some regular sign company.

    Alright I eliminated a bunch as even after a few days of letting them soak I am just not inspired, please review the comments I left for them if you want to know more of why they were eliminated. The ones remaining have comments for changes...

    except for #3 and #4 the first 16 look all too "corporate" or like a pharmacutical sp? (drug) company. #4 has potential but I don't know what is missing just not there yet. #3 is explained above.

    I think it is about what I do NOT who I am. Meaning there should be more emphasis on the signs and plaques and less on the atlas. I don't want to say no to globes but if one is used I think it should be more abstract. And I know I don't want that masculine of a feature in #7

    I am kinda liking #3 so far as I like the twist on the font for atlas...what if that part were vertical with the first a turned? and signs and plaques on two lines? I really don't want to give direction like that as I want to see what you come up with on your own...and not sure that would give me the look I want.

    Also would like to see the use of a division of METAL facades used in there somehow. Thanks so far.

    Hi Janey: It is hard to determine exactly what you want with your logo (what you want it to say), as you have three websites listed in the brief. You might want to clarify your brief as it is very hard to follow. Just want to make sure you get what you want! Thanks!

    BTW nice artisan work on your site...I say artisan because it's obvious you are more than just a sign company
