    @ehalsan - Thanks for the first submission, I like the design of the Christmas tree, however I feel like it should be bigger, and the text needs to flow more naturally in line with the tree - but like i said, the tree is nearly perfect!

    By the way, are PSD files accepted, or AI/EPS vector file type is a must?

    The tree is looking good - I'm still not sure about the text though - it feels too long and the fonts don't really fit in.

    Also no, AI file is a must - sorry, I should've mentioned that in my brief.

    @Dreamer05 - Thanks for your submissions! I definitely prefer #2. It's hard to tell but is the green a solid color or a gradient? I also think the #FACT could be smaller so that the bottom of the tree looks more like the bottom of a tree.

    @andiholist - Hey, thanks for your submissions - I don't like the first 4, I think the text just doesn't work well inside the green.
    Also, you've missed the word 'are' from the sentence - please can you correct this.

    As for the last 2 designs - these are definitely much better, but I don't like the tree on top, I think just a star/snowflake would be better. I'd also like to see a more readable font. I think it looks a little weird with the small bit of red too.. maybe you could make something else match this?

    @MrAlan_ - Thanks for your submission, however I don't really like it... the star doesn't look right, the font isn't anything special and the Fact at the bottom looks completely wrong. You've also missed out the comma after the word 'harvested'.

    It's very similar to the previous designs too - ideally I'd like to see some more original designs here!

    Thanks

    @andiholist - The first one looks good, the fonts are more readable and the colors are better. The second one looks too one-sided though.

    @Dreamer05 - The first one is looking better now, I think this is my favorite so far.

    @Athisa - Sorry I don't like it, I hope you can think of a different idea and submit again.

    To everyone else, I want to see something different now. Dreamer05's idea is good, but copying his idea will not make you win the contest. I want original designs. Be creative.

    @agenk - This looks very similar to the other designs on here - I was hoping for something more original. Also, please spell check before submitting - 3 words are spelled incorrectly on this. If you'd like to submit something more original, that would be great.

    For anyone looking at submitting, please read the brief again - especially the parts where it says:
    - Spell check before you submit
    - This must be your own design

    @dizainer - Thanks for your submission, however i don't really like it - as stated in the brief, the background must be transparent - and without the green & red background - the graphic just looks very basic - the font is plain, the red stars look strange, the red #FACT is hard to read, and you're missing a comma from the text - sorry but I'm looking for something a little more original.
