Great first entries!
I'm going to say that I am looking for something along these lines, but even a bit more simplified.

I have added a couple pictures of some vintage fonts.
I'd also be intereste in black/white entries only OR black on "cardbord/paper" for printing.
I hope i'm communicating that effectively.

Low ratings - one or two stars only demotivate designers to participate with new projects. Because low ratings lead the designer's rating to a crash. If you do not like a design, you better eliminate it without putting one or two stars. Thank you for your understanding

I see. I am sorry. They give you a system on our side, but I didn’t know how it impacts your rating in overall system. Only trying to give feedback as it relates to the project in terms of brief translation to entry.

Thank you for the information and I will try to be more descriptive in feedback I guess to try to get over the hump where the design doesn’t “feel” like the brief.

Bright colors should be avoided. Only use color or green if it’s a very black green. The system does not have a very good color selection. So while I included “green” I made sure to say no bright colors or “almost black green” in the brief.

Thank you!!

Hello!
Is it offensive to eliminate designs that we are steering away from? I'm not interested in ruining designer ratings or feelings!! Only looking to make clear the direction the overall contest is headed and to simplify.

1. Really favoring the black/white designs with strong/simple and clean font. They most closely resemble echo the photos I atttached for the brief. Not too scroll/cursive like and easy to read.

2. Loving the use of pieces of our branding.

Thank you all!
Really having fun with this and appreciate everyone's submissions and work!
