Feedback appreciated!

Here's our feedback regarding them:

1 - We want to work with the same colour scheme as Citibank (http://www.citibank.co.uk/)

2 - The text in the logo needs to be of a richer quality and should have a glossy finish

3 - melting-fire - we don't particularly like the crown in the logo and you could possibly try some options without the dollar sign.

Keep those entries coming folks.

You mean, I should take away the crown and the dollar sign??
But it's no logo anymore then :confused:

[Itaydr]

I sent you PM plz replay to me.

[sanjen]

We just want to see a few other options.

Here's my second try, really thought about the logo!
The logo is made out of the first letter from each word (PFA)

Hope you like it!

[VictoriaAnn]

Hi here is my entry. I am aware that red isn't the ideal colour for a financial site, but I guess you have already been through your options and wish to stick with those colours.

I would be interested in your thoughts.

Here's more of a 3D version of my prior submission

[Aakashm]

I will post my logo quite soon. It will be quite simple and vector (maybe because I don't know what vector is, but I am pretty sure that it will). Unlike the other entries I will do mine in a variety of colours;that isn't spelt wrong, i'm just from England.
@sanjen
Could you please PM me if I am on the right track. :)

[sanjen]

The contest is still open. I'll post feedback over the weekend.

Thanks for all the entries. The following are the ones that we like thus far with comments.

If we haven't commented on your entry it means that it might be best to recreate your entry from the ground up and re-submit.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
melting-fire,

Like the font of the words, like the style effect of the words but we don't like the graphic. We'd also like to see some colour schemes that fit in with the Citibank (http://www.citibank.co.uk) colour scheme.

http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/8969/try2qd3.png

coolwanz,

We generally think this logo is quite creative and we love the general look and feel but, we want to see a more official looking font (a less bold and thinner font might work well). We also think that the graphic looks a bit too smiley to be taken seriously in the personal finance market.

http://xs123.xs.to/xs123/08015/pfaIMG.png

Aakashm,

Like the idea but would like to see a different colour scheme, different font and different graphic.

http://fileupper.net/uploads/f1e07b4d16.png

Ariestoteles,

Like the idea but would like to see a different font and a more finance related graphic.

Thanks for the feedback Sanjen.

An updated version is forthcoming. :)

Hey Aakashm,

I'm referring to the part of the logo that has the $ sign.

Could I please know Sanjen what you mean by graphic.

[sanjen]

Feedback for re-submissions and new submissions coming up soon.

[shibligd]

Feedback please for my logo

[Aakashm]

I won't be able to do my logo for another 2-3 days because it willbe my dads bday and I will have to do.
Sorry for any inconvenience.

[sanjen]

Thanks for all the entries. The following is our feedback based on the most recent submissions.

If we haven't commented on your entry it means that it might be best to recreate your entry from the ground up and re-submit.

coolwanz,

We like the changes made to the logo but we'd like to have the 'rays' above the $ sign removed. We'd also like to see some variations of the graphic above Personal Finance Analyst before we make our final decision.

Ariestoteles,

We actually quite like your last batch of submissions but it's missing the 'X' factor but I just can't put my finger on eactly what that should be...hhmmm

shibligd,

Like the colours that you're using and the general concept of the logo but I think it still needs more work.

If we haven't commented on your entry it means that we have commented on it before and you have not yet made the changes or you need to recreate your entry from the ground up and re-submit.

coolwanz - we like your most recent entry but we'd like to see the dollarsign removed and the graphic modified to look a bit more related to personal finance. Also, the domain name (url) can be removed from the logo.

[neilparnham]

[sanjen]

Good entry neilparnham. It just needs to look a little glossier and we don't really want to use the '$' in the logo.

The font and lettering effects in the logo also need to be a little more creative and distinct in order to get the professional look that we're aiming for.

Look forward to your mods.

The graphic in the logo looks like it's related to mountains/outdoors rather than personal finance.
