Our guide''s input is essential to this process. Starting Wednesday, September 26 he will be on the water until Thursday, October 4. Feedback and eliminations will be very sporadic, if any, until the 4th. Thank you for your patience.

Hello, this is the head guide.  Thanks for some great submissions so far!  While I definitely understand the desire for feedback, I don''t think we are in a good position to give it except for tweaks on something we already like a lot but something just isn''t quite clicking.  We have some favorites among the submissions so far and they really don''t have all that much in common.  We haven''t really liked any that were font based, we prefer a logo and we''ve seen some good ones, and it seems we haven''t picked any designs with literal images of bikes and kayaks, but maybe that will change.  Good design is clever, eye appealing, and communicates a message about the business.  If we knew exactly what we were looking for we''d just commission a local artist, so use our guidance but going with your own design insights is important too.  Everybody has such different perspectives, which is the amazing part of this competition platform.  Good luck!

any comments on my last 4 designs?

Thanks.

Hi, I appreciate that you dont feel able to give feed back on all designs but I would be highly grateful if you could provide some for me purely because it would help for my design apprenticeship course. Hope im not a bother.

Hi,

I submitted a couple designs for the logo. Could you please send me some feedback.

Thank you,

Rade Design

is that the winner???? Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!

Hi - I know the horse is already out of the barn, : ) - but if you'll pardon me saying so, on the winning logo it is very hard to read the name Powell- it looks like dowell. I'm also surprised that colors aren't more vibrant. I know it sounds like sour grapes cause I didn't win, but I'm so surprised I can't resist commenting- it's just an observation of the basic rules of good graphics- eye-catching & legible... mmm.....

Hello All Designers,

hello GSD1017!

When I saw winning logo I can't stop Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!
CH was very descriptive throughout the contest, long long paragraphs in the brief telling us what he wants...but I'm sure winning logo can be described in only one word " _____" people know what I want to say :)

Good luck CH!
[Soon new contest will be launched again for "Quality Branding" when they realised what they have chosen]

and yes Good luck Bhenry for your first ever win on designcrowd

Eshtiyak,

I worked directly with the client in the same way that I work with any of the clients at my own firm, I'm not sure why you are so sour about the outcome of this little contest.

An absolutely excellent client to work with who had defined and understandable concepts in mind, and were happy to work with me to create their new branding.

An interesting first full experience on this site, a few little hiccups in the system that I wasn't sure on, but overall a fantastic experience..

BHenry
