Thank you to everyone for your efforts. There were many excellent designs, but my 2 favorite ones #78 & #67 were very distinctive and emphasized the CFO. #78 won because it gave the addional impression of strength and stability, qualities that us ProAdvisors who are not CPA (and proud of it) need to project. Thanks again. Look for my contests for business cards/stationery and Web Site Home Page.

I forgot to include in the previous comment, but would require a name change (which is doable)

66, 67, 69 Star Ratings
We are coming down to that "je ne sais quoi" factor in choosing. These are my favorites at this point.

4 stars
#47 the type works now, the design element has CFO in it so it can stand alone

1 star
#52 for the type
#61 for a wonderful design (not sure if I am going to change the name, however)

Great designs, thanks again to everyone

My comments about the 3 star ratings
#31 Favorite graphic element, typeface is too rounded
#3 Favorite use of type to emphasize My CFO and show distinction with city. I don't think the arch will work with longer cities
#31 Next best use of type and color to emphasize My CFO and show city. The graphic pieces are too literal.

Comments about the 1 star ratings with 2 line format, originally my preferred format but no one has made it work
#16 beannie/suitcase doesn't work
#22 tag lines get lost
#14 need more emphasis of My CFO
#18 border doesn't work

Please make sure the design and color with complement the ProAdvisor logo because it will appear on the business card and letterhead.

Thank you all for your efforts.

I know I said I prefered the city and My CFO on 2 lines, but I am not against one line. #1 makes a nice color highlight of the city. And #12 has a nice graphic size to lettering ratio.

Thank you all for following the discussion. This is the first time I have done this, so I'm not sure how everything works. I am assuming you cannot read the feedback I give directly to a designer. Here is a summary of what is working: If the city (Maui) is above, make some sort of connection as in #16, but the full line in #14 is too much. I prefer the letter style in #1 & #10. I like the graphic piece in #19 because it looks like a bullseye (e.g. on target), #17 because it looks clean and professional, and #3 just because I don't know why. The blue needs to be stronger as in #19 & #17. The grey blue of the bottom choice #18 is interesting. IBM blue pantone 2718 was always a favorite. Thanks again.

My favorite at this point is #14 because I originally wanted MY CFO but the url was taken. I asked the designer to tweak it (larger My CFO, smaller Maui, Maui on the bottom). The lettering should be stronger and more "professional", but keep the gold O.

I created a page on Facebook to view the old logo. You can past this address into your browser: http://www.facebook.com/pages/My-Ma…4256669207

Please ask and I will email the logo and variations that did not work out.
