This contest was so fun! I recommend any business to give this a go! The designers were professional and had great response times.
By the way, the key to a great logo is communicating what you want. Don't be shy in asking for what you really want and go ahead and rate the designer's work or eliminate what does not work for you. It's all about taste and what suits your business. Designers don't take it personally when you don't pick their design. Be upfront about what you like and voila!
All of these designers where amazing and I plan on coming back in a few months for another project.
Again, a humungous thank you to all of our designers!!!
Sincerely, The Happy Tails Crew!
Happy Independece day everyone!
Thank you everybody for your participation in helping with the Happy Tails logo. We have chosen Craftymom333's design. We loved all of your work, but for this application we thought her design represented our "character" the best! We wish you all the best and maybe we'll need some help with a future project and we hope you'll participate!
Thank you again, it's been a real pleasure working with talented professionals!
The Happy Tails Crew
Just a note to say we appreciate everyone's submissions. They are all very good! We are leaning toward a very cartoony looking design. If you care to offer up another design we'd love to see it, but we also understand that your time is valuable and therefore will not mind if you want to stop at this point. Again, thank you so much for your professional responses and timely messages and designs!
Hi everyone! How do you normally provide the artwork? Do you send out a hard copy? Is it in many different forms, ei: vector, jpeg, etc.? And does it include black and white forms? Thank you for your answers!
We'd like to see a fun font, not serious or classy. And we'd like to see the cat playing with something like a mouse or ball of string. Making the i in Tails with the ball of yarn as the dot would be cool. Thanks! All of you are so talented in putting together our ideas, we appreciate all of your efforts!!! ;0) Thanks! Any questions please ask.
Okay, I think we've narrowed down what we are looking for.
Happy (purple) Tails (Green)
Border Collie or Cattle Dog jumping over the H to catch a frisbee. Would like to see all limbs on the dog, including tail, upright ears, with a bandana on. Cat on the other end or incorporated somewhere around the name.
Hope this info. helps. I will be posting links to dogs we like that could be the inspiration for the dog jumping..
Thank you ALL so much for your hard work and changes I've been requesting.
This logo will be used on our business cards, website, t-shirts but most importantly our outdoor sign. (Letters need to be cut out with a darker background to be seen)
If you have more questions, please ask. I keep thinking of things as the design process goes on.
So we've decided some of the cartoon animals might work for our logo! We'd like to see something a little more detailed then what we've seen so far. Please keep our darker purple and sage green colors in mind when designing. Thanks everybody for your contributions, this is a lot of fun!
MycroBurst permits you to submit unlimited designs with unlimited variations. However, if you are providing 2 or 3 different color versions of the same logo in one draft, please make sure that if the particular draft gets finalized, each color version should be separated before you will send the final files.
Okay, we'd like to drop off Pet Center from the logo.
We are going for a little more muted colors. Not sure if this link will work: http://www.colorcombos.com/combotester.html
#1 We'd like to see the lettering softened some, by using a different font. Not too sure about overall design, but it's a nice start.
#5 We aren't sure about cartoon characters. I do like what you did with the Happy Tails Lettering.
I forgot to mention that this logo will be used on an outdoor sign and the lettering will need to come through white. (As in cut out)
I'd like a logo that is unique to Happy Tails and that gets the message across that we are a reliable yet a fun business. I mentioned the 2 colors as being an eggplant purple and sage duo. I am open to other accent colors as well as long as those 2 are the main colors. ( I don't count black or white as part of the color choices). I would also like the logo to be easy to distinquish if it is small, like on a business card or web page. It would be nice to have the name as part of the logo, but maybe also possibly a way to separate the logo/characters from the lettering. (I am not set on this however)
Well, I am SO excited to see what everyone comes up with! I appreciate all of your hard work and every entry!

Only one thing I though you was looking for:
Border Collie or Cattle Dog (cartoonist) not any king of dog ?
Nice job anyway!!!
