    Need a logo for a new company called Blue Light Recruitment

    $30 dollars to winner

    This is a company based in London, UK but opertating globally in the recruitment sector

    From the client:
    "The logo is for a Recruitment Company specialising in finding personnel for the "Blue Light" emergency response Sector including the wider professionals who work in the diverse field of fire protection and safety.
    We have attached a copy of the London fire service logo to give you a feel of what we like but we are open to other options. The seven-point fire service star forms the plain background to a fire brigade or fire department's armorial badge fixed to its front. The plain star background on its own has no copyright. This pattern originated many years ago to highlight the seven elements of a firefighters work. We thought it may be suitable as a background to our logo but please don't be tied to this ... if you have a better idea.
    Our business is not just about fire-fighting but fire and fire safety is a major part"

    1. Logo runs for 5 days (will extend if required)
    2. No clipart/copyright images please - original designs only
    3. Logo must be suitable for web and print
    4. Winner will be paid via Paypal
    5. If no suitable logo is found, we reserve the right not to appoint a winner

    The attached shows the London fire service logo that the client refers to.

    cheers, Paul

    thanks for the entries so far. Will forward to client for feedback.

    Just to clarify, the company name is"Blue Light Recruitment" and the full name should be on the logo.

    Hi Athisa

    The client liked your design but would like to see the following amendments if possible:

    *1. THE EIGHT STARS*:

    Keep the same. 8 stars and grey colour.

    *2.* *THE OUTER CIRCLE*:

    It currently says Blue Light, please change the wording to BLUE LIGHT RECRUITMENT (like image 3 on Logo 001)

    Regarding text. Please can we see two options.

    A. Use same font but have white text on a Navy blue background (as image 1 on Logo 004). And

    B. The Reverse. Navy Blue Text on a white background

    *3. INNER CIRCLE*:

    Please remove the fire extinguisher. Can we try the following options.

    A. A flame in red and yellow with no text and,

    A1. Please write GLOBAL within that circle and have the flame too.

    B. Can we make the inner circle look like the world with some fire coming out of it.

    B1. As for B with the word GLOBAL included.

    B2. The world with no fire and no text.

    Hope that's OK

    Thanks, Paul

    Hi Athisa

    nearly there. Could we try one final variation. Could we try adding an mage (see link below) into the center circle of the first of the most recent designs (blue writing on white background). If that's possible, could we try one variation with the fire and the firefighters and one with just the fire. hope that's OK?

    hi athisa

    very nearly there now, thanks for your patience. From client:

    "Really like the version with the photo (of the fire and firefighters), wondered if we could see what white writing on a blue background and blue writing on a red background would look like"

    Sorry for all the changes, we'll get there soon

    Paul

    Hi Athisa.

    OK, the client wants to go with the blue logo of the two latest versions. However she says:

    as we have reduced the size of the picture, is it possible to get a bit more red into the flames?

    If that's possible, we are then done.

    Thanks a lot, Paul
