Hey,

The contest is over and we want to thank everyone for submitting such a wide array of unique and creative ideas. After hours of review, we've narrowed the field down to three designs and we're going to sleep on it and make our final decision tomorrow AM.

Sorry for the delay but be certain that we will be picking a winner tomorrow (6/11) and rewarding the prize.

best,

Hi:

We are simply delighted (and slightly overwhelmed) by the range of talent and offerings submitted. By the end of the contest, we will narrow the logos down to the finalists and we plan on choosing a winner tonight (tomorrow latest).

We've given as much feedback as we can but we regret that we haven't been able to personally give feedback to all of the designers that have worked hard on our behalf. But with sincerely, we thank you all for spending your time and executing your talent for us.

Hi guys:

We have to apologize. In the process of narrowing down the field, we have begun the process of eliminating designs, but unfortunately we've been eliminating a few DESIGNERS instead. This naturally wasn't our intention and if anyone knows how to fix this problem, we'd appreciate the feedback.

We have figured out how to eliminate designs (not designers) and we will be doing this this morning. Again, we are going to try to cut down as many as we can and we'll try to give as much feedback as we to the community and individual designers. Just be patient.

Again, sorry for the rookie mistake and we truly appreciate all the time and talent you've all committed on our behalf.

best,

Outrigger3

We are very encouraged by the submissions. We'd like to look at a 3-D tech forward rendition with sharp lines if anyone wants to give it a shot. Again, at the end of the contest, we will certainly pick one. thanks

Hi guys and gals: The below is a rating system sent to me from the designers to help direct the process. Its what we'll now use.

1 star - Wrong direction, start over again with something completely
different
2 star - some elements I like
3 star - getting closer but need revisions or a different take on your
design
4 star - design is being considered
5 star - made the final cut!

Hey guys:

Wow! There's a lot of talent on this project and we appreciate all ideas. I'll be talking to my partner in a few hours and we'll give you more tailored feedback. This is our first time on 99designs but we are committed to purchasing a logo by the end of the contest. Any feedback you can give us to help you, please pass along. I guess to start, we'll use the star system to indicate what designs are getting closest to the right fit for us. I assume the best place to start is to give one star to the designs that are best suited to our needs and then add stars to which ones are getting closer to the final logo. I'm not sure now how the eliminated designs, but I'm sure its helpful for everyone as we funnel down to the winner. And again, it goes without saying, the eliminated entries or the ones that aren't getting stars doesn't mean their not got, it just means they're not the perfect fit for us. More later and thank you
