Dear project owner. I usually don't reply, but now I feel I must because I was rated one stars. This is really first time here! You maybe misunderstood the rating. This is not about your personal feelings or taste but about the QUALITY OF DESIGN. I designed you professional logo (I am professional since many years, graduated in Germany 2002, worked in the agency for years as well). From Logo criteria ( there are some - like can be logo recognizable big/small, B&West, in different media etc. ) this logo fulfill all. The only think is that you don't like it or you don't like the concept. That can happen - we cannot talk with you as some agency can. This make process much more difficult to us. Because even when you describe something written , the verbal communication with client is always better. By with giving such a low stars you punishing yourself more then us. Because designers reading such comments about low rating or getting low rating themselves will not send you any more designs. I would really appreciate when you withdraw my one star rating that I can send you more designs. After withdrawal of rating you can eliminate it. This is really much better. And after that the clever way is to eliminate design you really think are crap (but really). And those which just didn't hit your taste, but maybe are ordinary designs you may write that this is not what you are looking for. Designers will try again. You can extend the project - so you motivate more designers to participate and you can "fine tune" your design. In this way you can get best thing for your money and everybody is happy. Right now you just shooting own leg.

Nice Regards

Andrea Hoffman

Well said Andrea,
Some client don't really know what they want and for few $$ they play whims on cost of everybody else. I am going to post your wordings verbatim in my context.
Thx for speaking out.
