Please note: I would prefer not to see "pencil lines" for the hands. The ugly, quick and dirty b/w logo I provided in http://www.freewheel.net/thehandinstitute/ should only be used as a reference for the position of the hands and ONLY IF YOU FEEL you want to use those hands.

WHITE BACKGROUND please. Your logo must be suitable for stationary.

COLORS: preferred colors are most shades of BLUE and any other colors you want except green as the most prominent color but a little bit of green, like entry 21691 is fine.

IMPORTANT: If your logo doesn't look good and legible on this thumbnail-view page, it is not important how it looks in the large version.

GUIDELINES
(ignore all previous comments)

  1. Usage: The Hand Institute is a medical center specialized in hands, arms, shoulder but mostly hands. The logo should inspire trust from a prestigious, caring, up-to-date clinic. The logo will be used in website, business cards, etc.
  2. Text: Any FORMAL font, lowercase, uppercase or title case.
  3. Tag line: The tag line "response - service - compassion" is optional. I'd like to see versions with and without.
  4. Colors: use shades of blue and/or any other colors you want. What's important is that the design is simple, easy to read and a small b/w version (not grayscale) looks okay. Avoid green as the main color. Use white background only.
  5. Graphic elements: one or two hands, of course and any other optional elements that suggest trust, medical care, help, knowledge, compassion, etc.
  6. Simple is better.

THANK YOU!

Thank you for all the hard work. Some GREAT designs have been submitted and there's around 10 candidates for the winning design. I will be asking the winner to make slight changes and to submit a vector version of the logo, if possible, compatible with PhotoShop. At this point, my office is reviewing the current designs and you do not need to submit more logos.

All designs were inspected carefully and the fact that some don't have a score or comment doesn't mean it wasn't taken into consideration ... or it may actually win. My apologies for not being able to comment each design.

I wish I could choose more than one winner but for those who wont win, I hope it was a learning experience.
