     Hi
     Yeah indeed i noticed as well, this looks better.
     We can always extend the deadline if you want.
     Then i can just give you my email and we talk on mail for other details if it's not on point when it reaches the deadline.

     Great, looks much better. One last thing I noticed, is the thickness of the line you have used for the 2nd icon suggestion (the open arrow), the same as the one you use for the lines of the two triangels? It seems thicker, and I like the subtleness of the lines of the two triangles better.

  3. wnyblog says :

     I'm not sure if it's allowed to extend the deadline, so that's why I like to have all the designs perfectly ready before so I can compare well :)

  4. Irregular says

     I'll adjust the line thickness a litlle!
     And no i don't mean littarly extend the deadline, but if you would pick my design we can always keep contact about any details on the logo by email evn if the deadline has exceeded.

  5. wnyblog says :

     Ok great! Thanks for your different proposals, the second option with the new line thickness is much better :)

     Thank you again. I'm gonna think about it for a bit. As I said before I'm very much on the details, and it seems like the two triangles in this example are positioned more closely than in your first logo. Can you distance them like you did in the first example?

     Hi
     This symbol is very simplistic but i actually like it end the meaning is more obvious.
     The arrow pointing up for a better life,
     3 corners in the triangle.
     And the line ending is just the path you're following to get there.

     Hi and thanks! Great you're awake again :-). I like your new proposal, although the icon looks very light. Can you make it a bit darker, because it doesn't stand out like the two triangles did. Also, it'd be great if you can change the sentence of your first proposal with the two triangles to "towards a healthy, energetic and thriving life", so I can compare the two designs.

     Hi,
     
     I think this might fit your blog better. Clean and simplistic pointing out to the 3 elements and also your initials of your blog.

     Hi, thanks so much for your efforts. Comparing the logo with or without an icon, I do definitely think that the logo including an icon is more powerful. The text I'd like best is the "towards a healthy, energizing and thriving life". Also, I prefer the text all written out, as opposed to the abbreviated logo you proposed. So those things I'm completely certain and happy about. The only thing that is still on my mind is the symbolic meaning and relevance of the logo. I honestly like your very first suggestion (the two triangels), best. They fit nicely in the overall look and feel of the logo and balance it well. Nevertheless, when looking at it (and I've asked some others too), I don't immediately feel a connection or an obvious reason why that particular icon is included. When thinking about it a bit more, it can be seen as an arrow pointing upwards, but it's a bit far-fetched. And seeing the fact that I do really prefer the logo including an icon, to make it more unique, that's the challenge I feel we're still facing. Do you have other ideas about this?

     *sorry, I mean the symbolic meaning and relevance of the icon instead of the logo :)

     Hi! Sorry for my late reply, but i work at night so i sleep in the day.
     I've got all your feedback! But the problem is i'm not allowed to just use the other person's logo, and to be honest i see why you like it , but i prefer the 2 triangles. Not because it's my design but i think the other one is a bit to much of the ZEN, HINDOE feel if you know what i mean. Still thinking how i could change the triangles so it fits the meaning better.

     Hi
     It's good you pay attention to the small details, i like that!
     Here is the logo without the symbol as you asked.
     
     About the symbol, i understand why this remins you on a car brand, and i was more font of the first one as wel.
     I'll upload a logo as well if you're still interested in some sort of small logo for your blog.
     
     Greetings and thanks again for your great feedback.

     Thanks again! I'm just getting some second opinions, I'll let you know as soon as possible!

  4. wnyblog says :

     Hi irregular, have you seen all of my feedback I sent yesterday evening?

  5. wnyblog says :

     Hi Irregular, it'd be really nice if you can still make the changes I've sent yesterday before the deadline of this challenge which is tonight at 19:30. I'll be available for feedback and questions until 18:30 and will be checking regularly to see whether you've uploaded new proposals. Thanks very much in advance.

     And a small example of the logo on it's own, also possible without the shadow ofcourse but I thought it might add some dynamic range to it.

  2. wnyblog says :

     Thanks! I like it better without the shadow :)

     Hi! Thanks for your getting back so quickly and the changes you have made. Seeing the new logo and symbol, my preference actually goes to the previous one, it just looks really nice and clean whereas the new symbol reminds me more of a car brand logo. The only thing with the first logo is is that I'm struggling a bit with the symbolic meaning of the two triangles. Of course there's 3 corners in each of the triangles, and the void part between the two triangles could be considered the 'invisible third space', but maybe you have more ideas on another suitable symbol? Lastly, maybe it’s me, but it seems like you’ve used a little bit of a darker color (black) for the “Whole New You” text in the new logo, whereas the first one looks a little lighter (anthracite or very dark grey). My preference goes to that anthracite-like type of color. Hope this helps, thank you!

  2. wnyblog says :

     Maybe it's an idea to see the logo without the symbol, and see what that looks like. Also, can you change the "towards" in a "for", so that it says "for a healthy, energised and thriving life". Just to compare the two. I'm really on the details :D Thank you again

     Hi and thanks for your submission! My preference definitely goes to the white logo. I like the font, simplicity and timelessness a lot. The symbol is nice but I don't see the meaning of it related to the blog, especially since it consists of only 2 parts. Can you explain or adjust it so it's more suitable to the idea behind the blog? Also, I'm curious to see what the lower text looks like if it includes "towards a", so that the sentence reads "towards a healthy, energised and thriving life", and ideally to also see a logo without the text as a comparison. Thanks!

  2. wnyblog says :

     With the "idea behind the blog" I mean that I'll talk of the 3 components of health, as opposed to 2 that are reflected in the symbol right now.

  3. Irregular says

     Hi. Thanks for your quick reply!
     I'll adjust the logo so you have 3 components and i'll blend the components together so you feel it's connected. I'll also use the longer sentence.
