After coming up with the name "Apple Blossom" and a slogan "Learning made easy" I posted a logo contest on 99design.com. In the design brief, I gave a description of the product, my thoughts on the brand identity, attached a couple of photos of apple blossoms I found on the internet, as well as the following sketch in Microsoft Paint:
Yeah, I know, stop laughing.
Here's a slightly improved version I drew the next day and captured with my $20 phone's camera.
Really, I don't know what you think is so funny.
That's why I hired someone else to come up with a logo. I'm actually quite pleased with the results, which I should be able to show you in a couple days.
Looking back, I wish I had let the designers come up with their own concepts, because even though I encouraged them to do so, almost every design took directly from this concept. I'm only thankful that they were able to see past my (will you please stop laughing!) and allow their creativity and skill to come up with something useful.
Actually, there are two designs that I really like, and if you'd be so kind, please go look at what real designers have been able to come up with based on my modest (that's enough!) such that I have two designs that I feel are excellent, and I need to choose one of them.
Help me decide by voting for the Apple Blossom logo you prefer.
