Here are some helpful tips for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses.
Rank design entries daily, this will encourage participation.

designers for top ranks, It encourages more participation.

Hi designers, I almost forgot that the image would need to work in monochrome also since it will be on the top of each receipt, letterhead etc. However, color would be great for shirts, hats, website, etc.
First, thanks so much for all the great images. I am very pleased with the first day entries. I have started ranking the order of the entries to help lead the design. Please, continue to submit original ideas along with taking cues from the top ranked entries. Though image #9 is ranked a little lower, I do like the 3D imagery that it portrays. Well, I hope this helps. I am constantly looking in, so please leave a comment or question either through a private message or here on the public board. Thanks again!
Thanks again everyone! I would also like to see designs that do not necessarily involve the Ohio symbol. We are open to all designs and we have 5 people helping make the decision. So, I am only the messenger. A couple of people would like to see other design ideas.
I was curious if anyone has ideas for a character (ie Mascot) type logo that could be used with the Company name and our state date of 1991. I have enjoyed seeing everyone's use of the State of Ohio, just want to see some other options that could be interesting. Thanks again for everyone's hard work.
Also, other comments from my business partners. They are curious if anyone has a way to place a 'fleur de lis' in the design. Two of our partners are from the New Orleans area which incorporates the Fleur de lis in its identity. Not sure if it would work, but would be curious to see what people come up with in the next couple of days.
