Describe who/what this design is about

Our online site will be called theHUBx.com. We’re targeting a specific local geography. theHUBx is an online platform (like a hub portal) consisting of a collection of places. Our focus is to provide unique places for local businesses and professionals to create an online presence and become easier to find. We want theHUBX to be the first place people in our target area go to buy train tickets, swap DVDs for shoes, shop for gifts, find a plumber or signup for dance lessons.

There will be 5 different places - (1)shoppe-marketplace,(2) travel-online booking, (3)deal-an auction site,(4) ace - site to find professional service provider and (5) swap-bartering site

What colors would you like?

Various.

How many colors do you want in your design?

not sure

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

The end product will be like a family of logos.

See www.mTikiti.com or FEDEX home delivery vs FEDEX Express. We like the flexibility to swap icons to denote different services and yet maintain the same logo look.

Ours would have same base logo with swappable icons AND swappable text fro each place.

Make it so you can swap the ‘x’ in ‘theHUBx’ for any of the place names eg.to get theHUBace, theHUBshoppe etc. AND an icon.

If you were to write the place names as part of the logo, the words 'ace', 'shoppe', 'travel' , ‘deal’, swap’ etc. would be in superscript..

Use unique icons with different colors for each place.

Maintain consistency in the design so that each place is clearly identifiable as a part of HUBx.

#196 - That's what we're looking for. Can you resize the note and the font size so it can be more legible? (Like #183 - the words 'online auction' are very legible - that's what we want)

#190 - We really like it! The smooth edged puzzle pieces are certainly better. Can you write 'Help wanted' on the note? (instead of just 'Help')

#179 - nicely done! Can you fit 'online auction' on the tag? Raise the 'bid' just a bit.

To all designers - Thank you so much for some really awesome ideas! At this time, we don't need any new designs. We will work with neonlite to finalize the designs for the hubPlaces.

Dear Project Holder I really don't know what the logo style you like? do you like all the symbol mixing on the "hub" letter?

#143 - OK. But for travel - we really want to use luggage/suitcase (because we'll sell more than plane tickets - hotels, trains etc.) For shopping, we want to use a shopping bag.

#73-75 are not bad. But we think the X icon is awfully similar to the design by NEONLITE - #57, #49 and others.
