Updates

Thanks so much to all those that have posted.

Just so you know how I operate, I will generally post all comments in two cycles between 10am and 2pm and then between 6pm and 9pm. I typically drop a note to everyone that submits. Some times, I have nothing to change, and I will let you know that. I does not mean that I am not considering your design. It just means, I need time to reflect. Other times, I have no feedback that would be useful to get the design from where it is, to where I would like it to be. In general, I let you know that, and I will generally eliminate those designs shortly thereafter. I am just trying to be respectful of everyone's effort. It is very early in the process, so I have not yet started to rate, but will do so in the next couple of days, and begin providing very specific feed back to a few finalists. 

 Thanks again to everyone that is submitting. However, I have noticed the use of a magnifying glass element in the image portion of many entries. I have to tell you that I'm not a fan of the magnifying glass and I would appreciate if you could focus your energies in other areas.  Please eliminate magnifying glasses from future entries.  Thank you.

 I'm finding that designs with the text all on one line resonates better with me than the text on 2 lines.  If you can keep the job-benefits.org all on one line that is preferred. Thank you.

 I have begun eliminating some designs this morning. What you see left are those types of designs that resonate with me.  You can use that for guidance with respect to modifications if you are continuing to revise. I expect to begin rating the pool of logos this evening. Thanks again to all those that participated. It is been a great success with respect to getting many different qualified entries. Thank you very much.

 Thanks to everyone that has submitted so far. I have eliminated many designs and I wish to thank all those people that took the opportunity to try and put something together for me.  Many were very creative, but they simply were not the style or look that I was intending.  As you can see a theme is starting to evolve. If you are still in the mix then there's definitely elements of your design that I find interesting. I'm going to sign off for now but I will begin rating the current designs this evening. Thanks again to everyone for all their great effort.

 Thanks so much for everyone's time. I've had just a wonderful selection from which to choose.  I'm closing in on the finalists now, and I just wanted to drop everyone a note of thanks.  What a talented group of people designcrowd has.
