IMPORTANT:

We require the word Equestrian in an appropriate type face enhanced with an equestrian symbol, such as a horse's head / tail / mane, horse hat, etc. etc. The design could appear behind the text or form part of the lettering but must complement our DB logo which can be found at:

http://www.equestriandb.com/content/images/equestriandblogo.png

Please be creative and ensure that the design does not detract too much from the overall impact of the current logo but complements it. This means the image must not stand out. It must be subtle - we want our audience to see the Equestrian name and logo first and then your design.

This probably, but not definitely, means that your design will stay in the background, have a low luminosity, possibly light grey or a very pale colour taken from the logo. We would prefer the height of your design to not exceed the height of the DB logo.

If you think you can make a valuable contribution to our current logo then please submit your design.

Good luck!

    #52 Thanks for your hard work and patience! Please would enlarge the horse image on the right. It is out of proportion with the other two. Also would you allow the gray to show through behind the lettering. The head of the horse in the middle is still too small and the neck needs to be extended a little. Thanks.

    It's subtle. Into #52 I have added : - + the horse neck - + balance between the white borders - different gradient

    #50 Getting there. Middle horse still needs to have a longer neck and larger head and preferably the head pointing down more. Can we try with having the same opacity of the gray from top to bottom. White margin to lettering looks good. Thanks.

    #49 Please could we have a gradual transparent gradient of the horses behind the lettering and have a white shadow around the lettering so that there is a narrow margin around the letters. Thanks.

    #24 We still like this design, however the proportions of the head and neck are not right. Please see comment for #47 below. Thanks.

    #47 Middle horse: The proportions are not right. Please make the neck longer and the head larger and make the head face down more. Thanks.

    #45 having the logo appear over the eye just doesn't work.

    #44 We like this except for the placement of the horse's head - it doesn't look quite right. Please could you try and position it behind EquestrianDB (not the logo) and somehow blend it into the wording. The design and wording must 'come together' somehow. I hope you know what I mean. Thanks.

    #42 Almost. Put the jumping horse to the far right. Make all horses smaller so that they all fit behind the EquestrianDB and not the logo. Thanks.

    qcssoft #39,#40 We like these expect for the design of the horses head. Please could you make this more like a horse's head. I'm told from horsey people that the shape is nothing what a real horse's head actually looks like. Thanks.

    #31 Please could we see the following changes made to this design: Replace rider on right with rider on left. Remove rider on left. Move all 3 riders left so first rider starts behind the E. Have the lettering layer on top of the silhouette layer. Have a white stroke around the letters so that the edge of the silhouette does not come in direct contact with the letters. Thank you.

    #25 Please could we see a version with 100% of the silhouette behind the text and give it a white edge where it comes up against the text as in #20 and bring down the vertical height of the rider on the right a little. Thanks.

    #25 Could we see them about 50% smaller with the girl on the pony coming inline (not below) the other riders. Thanks.

    #23 Well done! This is much better. Any chance we can have more like this? Perhaps showing 3 or 4 different riding styles (racing, dressage, jumping, etc.) appearing as a silhouette in the background from left to right)?

    Several logos seem to be compliant with the brief. However the max rate is 2 stars. Can you tell us more exactly what you are looking for please ?

    #12, #13 I think you've missed the point. Please read the brief again.

    Suggestion: Imagine the type of design Google would use on their logo.

    #1 Good attempt. Too large. Not very original. Direction of movement should be forward, ie. left to right.
