There was a problem with my original attachment (the brief). It should be fixed now. It is an MS-Word document; I think the DC uploader was not working properly when I originally uploaded. Hope it is there now...

Dear Designers

Added Sunday, March 10, 2013

There are some nice designs coming together and the project looks promising. Thanks for all your submissions so far. This project is now GUARANTEED!

I am so impressed with so many of the designs. Keep them coming and I will strive to give specific feedback. It is going to be very hard to choose! thanks for your continued hard work and for entertaining my feedback.

I have changed and updated a PDF file with restaurant logos and some fish/seafood logo inspiration that might be helpful in terms of understanding my personal tastes and some ideas for look/feel. Notice there is no consistent look in terms of design, classic vs modern, color or font. but all logos look crisp, elegant, polished and mid-upscale.

Thank you for all the great designs so far - many are truly impressive. So far most of you have followed the brief very well. The designs have wide range of look & feel, but many of them have an Atlantic / North American or French feeling. I wonder if tomorrow you might try to create designs with a Moorish / Mediterranean feel - see more details on this direction below.

I am eliminating lots of designs for whom comments have been sent or have been superceded by revisions. Please do not interpret elimination as a comment on the work; it simply for me to keep track of so many designs submitted

Haven't seen any new submissions in response to the direction provided last night, e.g. mediterranean / moorish design (see previous update-to-all).

I added a ppt file called Moorish Med Patterns - this is just for your reference and background in case it helps for mediterranean design inspiration. Note that the ppt focuses on the PATTERNS and designs only, and is not intended to convey any preferences with regard to COLORS.

I am truly sorry I could not submit feedback on all designs submitted, especially designs we eliminated. The user interface of DesignCrowd is quite painful and a little slow to use. Even if it takes 2 minutes per design, at 800 designs this would mean 1600 minutes, or 26 hours of work just giving feedback or comments. I simply do not have the time to engage with all designs and give feedback or suggest improvements.

Thank you all for your tireless efforts and assistance. We went through an agonizing committee-based and polling process where we narrowed down from 45 designs to 5, then 3, finally 2, and then a winner.  I am so sorry that more of you could not be selected as winners - there were many fabulous designs submitted.
