Crusader of the Night: 1) We want to stay with a "typewriter" typeface. 2) The graduation cap is not appropriate. Remember that we are giving scholarships to young people (high school students) in the developing world. The winning entry will be a "simple" one. Thanks for your entry. The Beca.org Team
CelaCG, Very professional but not what we are looking for. Please read our reply to "Crusader of the Night." Also, the appearance of "org" in the logo is important. Thanks for your effort. The Beca.org Team
Ariestoteles, A good effort. We are not sure about the image on the left, but the typeface and the placement of the "org" are excellent. Sincerely, The Beca.org Team
natkhatgirl, Again, more of a "typewriter" font would be desirable. No designated space for a tagline is necessary nor desired. We are not sure about the image on the left, but it is definitely very professional in appearance. Generally speaking, very impressive. The Beca.org Team
designfxpro, We don't mind the font. The images are not suitable for this project. Remember, simplicity is important and please refer to our samples . Sincerely, The Beca.org Team Sincerely, The Beca.org Team
neilparnham, Very professional, but please refer to our notes above. TIP: Any logo with any graduation cap has no chance of succeeding in this contest. Remember that many of these people will be attending technical schools. Sincerely, The Beca.org Team
coolwanz, The typeface is perfectly appropriate. The logo is professional, albeit a bit "busy." A very solid entry. Sincerely, The Beca.org Team
