2 iterations of my previous entry and a slightly different concept:

Feedback:

Woosh - Thanks so much woosh for your submissions. I like your concept in the 2nd set of designs you sent. I wonder how it would look without the bunny in there, but other than that, I liked your designs and you were in the lead up until this morning. xpressions sent some concepts that I really like and she stole the lead from you!

Thanks again, and if you feel like submitting more, please do so!

higgylm - Thanks for your entry! Nice design, but a little too simple for me. I do want simple, but not that much. The cat is cute, but the font could look better different and it would be nice to see a dog in the logo too. Thanks again for your work!

borzoid - I like your idea a lot, but I am not crazy about the font, and I wonder if it would not be a little better if the animals were not so much bigger than the text. Thanks for your submission!

Tyler - Thanks for your submission. It is a cute concept, but I don't much like the paw in the background or the fact that the graphics are of just 2 birds and a cat.

xpressions - Oh, wow! I really like those! I really like the 1st, 3rd, and 4th design a whole lot!!! So far, you are in the lead with your designs, but if you stay in the lead, I will have a hard time picking between your different concepts! If you do win, would you be able (and willing) to design a website banner/header for me to use? If so, there will be an extra $5.00 added to the prize to make the total $35.00. Also, if I pick your design, how hard would it be to play around with other colors or fonts? I like the ones you used, but I might want you to play around with others just to make sure that I use the ones that I like the very best. Let me know...

So far, xpressions has the lead... I would like to end this by December 23, but I will extend a few days if anyone is working on something. Just let me know here if you need me to extend it.

Thanks again to all of you that have submitted work! You all are wonderful!

Cheers,
Summer

xpressions - What format are your designs in and what file types will you send me if you win? Thanks in advance!

**xpressions** · 12-21-2006, 03:11 PM

Happy you like the concept(s). Colors and fonts are easy to change. You will receive the source file created in Illustrator, an .eps to edit in Photoshop and whatever format you require for web. Just a heads up that I will be tied up with holiday events, but will be checking in.

**woosh** · 12-21-2006, 05:21 PM

Because I am in Australia by the time this contest ends ands gets sorted it will be xmas eve for me and that day and the next three (sons birthday) I won't be anywhere at my comp so I am going to step down from this one ... xpressions nice work

thanks Summer

**xpressions** · 12-21-2006, 08:51 PM

Thank you, Woosh and have a happy and safe holiday. Summer, forgot to answer your question: yes, can create a banner for you.

**TwistedAngel** · 12-21-2006, 10:20 PM

Any feedback for me?

**borzoid** · 12-21-2006, 10:58 PM

Here is a variation. Softer colors, cleaner font and resized the pets. Let me know if this is more in the direction you are looking for.

**SummerHudson** · 12-22-2006, 07:29 PM

TwistedAngel - Oh, I am so sorry! Your designs were on the previous page, and I forgot to leave you feedback! I like your idea, but I would just like a logo that looks a bit more "flowy" and clean. Maybe if the paws were in a different location on the logo it would appeal more to me, but it IS a nice concept and thanks so much for entering!

Woosh - Thank you for entering my contest. I REALLY liked your 2nd concept! I hope you have a Happy Holiday! Thanks again for your great work!

borzoid - Thank you for your submissions. I like the revised version of your concept a whole lot, but I really like the concept that xpressions has for me better. It is just more of what I am looking for. If you want to know... Had Woosh not submitted his and xpressions did not submit his, you would have won this contest! Again, thank you for your work.

Xpressions is still in the lead!

*Contest will be over on 12/23 unless someone tells me they are working on something, then I will wait on you.

**SummerHudson** · 12-22-2006, 07:41 PM

Xpressions - Thank you again! I just LOVE your work! I keep going back and looking at it even though I know very well what it looks like.

You enjoy your Holiday festivities and just let me know when you are ready to work on the logo (play around with colors/fonts) and when you are ready to work on the banner. Also, you don't have to reply now, but would it be possible to get the names/code of the colors used in my logo when all is finished so I can match my website design to the colors in my banner/logo?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS and I will talk with you soon!

**jingquan** · 12-23-2006, 12:47 AM

Hey, wait a bit. I'm just doing some finishing touchups and will be ready soon.

**jingquan** · 12-23-2006, 12:59 AM

Here's my design:

Hope you like it.

Just to add, if I didn't win, you may still keep this image if you want. But I do like to win

**SummerHudson** · 12-23-2006, 11:51 AM

jingquan - Thankjs so much for your submission! It is cute! However, I believe that I like xpressions design the best.

Thanks again!

The contest is now over... Xpressions is the winner!!! Xpressions, I got your PM, I will think about fonts/colors and let you know what I would like to try after the Holidays. I will be around, so PM me when you are ready to work on it! Thanks again!

Thanks to everyone who entered! Everyone did great work! Have a safe and happy Holiday!!!

Cheers,
Summer

**xpressions** · 12-23-2006, 12:58 PM

Thank you for choosing my design. Nice contest and great work by all. Will pm you, Summer, most likely after Monday.

Happy holidays to all!
