    Thanks everyone so far for your efforts.

    Just to reiterate:
    NOTHING on a Japanese/Asian theme please. No flags or maps of Japan, no red suns, bamboo, cherry blossom, mount fuji, tori gates, yin/yang etc. The logo is to be used in Japan and these types of designs don't go down well. Thank you ;-)

    Also:
    No large complicated designs, please. Looking for a logo that can sit next to the lettering "Naturopathy Japan" and can be used on its own too.

    Many thanks!

    I think the best way to make the logo mark instantly recognisable on its own is to incorporate the letters NJ into it.

    The ideal is to have all the text on one line with the logo mark sitting to the left.

    So I think we have narrowed down the idea to the logo mark to be made from using the letters NJ and incorporating them into a circle to sit to the left of the text.

    haetro! come on man! do you think it's right what you are doing right now? i'm sure there's a lot of other ways to do the "nj". So i'll leave it to you to decide what to do.

    Sorry, ENTZ, I don't understand your comment. And what does "haetro" mean?

    hi entz, just to clarify, your design was totally different on my idea, try to take a look at some of your work and the other entrants work, its depends on how you interpret it and how will the CH react on the ideas. Some of my entries in the other contest was also duplicated or copied, but when i examine it theres a lot of differences. cheers! check the other entries. good luck!

    ok haetro, i get what you mean. You are right about the "how you interpret it", but just to let you know that many other entrants have interpret it differently from mine. If you still persist that your entry 3, 4 and 5 is different from my entries, then i have nothing more to say to you. Your are a designer as i am and you should know all these. Cheers! and good luck to you too!

    Sorry "thegreatgwin", haetro is one of the entrants in this contest. The matter has been settled, you can ignore those posts. Cheers!

    "Entz": Thanks for the clarification ;-)

    "yachu21": for some unknown reason, your designs now lead to a 404 Error page so unable to leave you feedback. Have notified SP Support.

    Cheers ulahts. Yes, just got confirmation of that from Sitepoint Support.

    Is not a problem. Just wanted to give feedback and rule out designs so it is clear which designs are left in the running.

    Many thanks indeeed everyone for all your contributions. Your time and creativity is most appreciated.

    This is my 3rd contest on SP and will definitely be back.

    The winning design by xpressions incorporates both the healing AND regal theme we were after for this project. Other than harryt's brilliant design and a few of the last minute ones, there were no designs that really incorporated the regal theme even though it was in the full brief from the start.

    There were some fantastic, original designs from many of you which were hard to turn down as although great, they just did not fit the picture for this project.

    Thank you again and I look forward to coming back and calling on all your skills again. Warm regards from a hot, humid and sunny Hiroshima, JP.
