    I haven't found anything I really love yet, so I'm keeping this contest open. I really expected to find a logo I really liked more quickly. Sorry! But I'd love to see more entries come in. :)

    I plan to leave more detailed feedback tomorrow, but of what I have I like RNHalawi's second one (with the talk bubble) best. I like the concept, and it's the closest to what I'm looking for. I would prefer brighter colors (a different color to replace the grey?) and perhaps a bolder (or more interesting) font.

    Just a note: Please don't send in near-duplicates of RNHalawi's design with small changes and hope I'll pick yours-- it seems dishonest. I just wanted to give all of you an idea of what concept I like best. Also, I don't really like the grapics with the initals (I'm seeing this a lot).

    So far no winners. But I want to give some more feedback on what's been sent in so far.

    RNHalawi: As I said before, your second entry is definitely the front-runner. Check out my last post for more specific comments.

    Neil: I like yours, too. I like the color concepts. The graphic isn't my very favorite, but I like it better than the CK CBK graphics I'm getting. I'd like to see a bolder font, something more fun. As you can tell by my motto (which was incomplete in your design), the tone of the site will be lighthearted rather than serious.

    Ch0z9: Some of the colors here are nice, but I'm not nuts about the graphic, and I don't think the overall logo design looks very professional.

    Callistas: I like the colors here, and the overall style is fun. It might be just a little too feminine with all the curly-q's on the bottom, and I don't really like the big CK at the top, but I think you're on the right track.

    Please keep 'em coming!

    -Karen

    Hi RNHalawi. Actually, I liked the original one (the grey and yellow) better-- I'm not crazy about the revised color combinations. I liked the soft yellow that you used before, though I thought the grey could be changed to a brighter color. I also liked the shape of the talk bubble. What I really wanted was a different font. The second and third one (though I don't know what it really is) just looks like Ariel to me, while the first one looks (to me) science-y or futuristic, which isn't exactly what I'm going for.

    But thanks for the revisions! If you wanted to do more, that'd be great. :) If not, the contest is still open, people. Keep 'em coming.

    -Karen

    I'm still not convinced by anything I've seen so far for this contest. And I'm surprised, becase there were lots of things I like when I looked at other contests! I guess my concept is just a bit more difficult.

    So I'll raise the amount to $35 to see if I can get more entries.

    Here's some feedback for new entries:

    RNHalawi. I like the new colors and conceptually I like it... but I'm not convinced. I actually think it looks a bit amatureish, which of course isn't what I want. I'd love to see some different fonts and maybe some layering effects to make it look more professionally done. As is, it's just very very simple.

    Superblog. I also like yours, but don't love them. The colors for both are great (though I think I prefer the green), but I don't like the graphic on the green one, and other than that they are just a little too simple. I want something a bit more dynamic.

    So I've raised the amount by $10 so I can find a winner. New entries please! :)

    -Karen
