Describe who/what this design is about

PaceAdvantage.com is an interactive thoroughbred handicapping website with about 30,000 members.

You can view the website at www.paceadvantage.com

The logo will be used on the website and as a screen print/embroidery logo for apparel and other merchandise.

Note: while I like these logos I'm really looking for something unique and different

What kind of design are you looking for?

How would you describe the effect in your logo:(Check all that apply)

Unique/Creative
Clean/Simple
Traditional
Masculine
Abstract

What colors would you like?

The color scheme on the website uses shades of Green and we would like to maintain those colors. As well, the website is American based and the members are a very patriotic bunch, so the color scheme of red, white & blue might be a possibility. We are open to artistic license with regard to color.

How many colors do you want in your design?

not sure

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

• a horse with "blinkers" like the famous Secretariat might be interesting

• Please use any info conveyed as a very general outline only. I'm more interested in seeing a logo that I couldn't imagine rather than one based on my preceived notion of what a logo should look like. Wow me!

Would love to see how #61's color scheme works on the page. #71 and #73 are definitely headed in the right direction. Would like to see the way the "Talking Horses Since..." is presented on #71 also applied to #73.

COMMENT CORRECTION: Comment on Drafts #56 to #58 -- The illustration must be of a thoroughbred race horse if you wish to have any chance, regardless of the quality of your design.

THE CONTEST HAS BEEN EXTENDED 3 DAYS It would be very helpful if submissions included a placement on the webpage similar to Drafts #53 & #54 so we get a better visual of what it will look like. Comment on Drafts #53 to #57 -- The illustration must be of a thoroughbred race horse if you wish to have any chance, regardless of the quality of your design.

Draft #53 gives us an excellent visual of how the logo will appear. Thanks. Hopefully, we can see the other logos in this fashion.

We're going to extend this thing a few days because I've finally decided what I would ultimately love to see. As I've already stated, this logo will be placed in the same spot as the existing logo at the top of paceadvantage.com with the existing "rail dirt track" image as the background that it sits on top of. I would love to see an original representation of two horses and perhaps even two jockeys racing together AND debating with each other, just like the memebrs of my website do on a daily basis. The website is a discussion board about thoroughbred horse racing, and there are many heated debates every single day on the board. If we could have perhaps even a semi-cartoonish representation of two horses and two jockeys debating each other as they race down that "dirt strip" at the top of the page, and also incorporate the website name "PaceAdvantage.com" along with "Talking Horses Since 1999" -- that would be exactly what we're looking for.

I would like to point out one very important point. This new logo will be dropped exactly where the current "logo" sits at paceadvantage.com. Meaning, it will be sitting atop that "dirt track rail" background you see at the top of the page. Ideally, the colors of this new logo should work with that "rail" background as well as the rest of the color scheme on that page.

Draft #22 needs a bolder font - not script! Would like to see Draft #27 in the green tones! Would like to see some versions that include a jockey aboard the race horse.

Draft #24 looks sharp! Draft #25 has potentioal but the horse doesn't really look right.

Starting to see some actual thoroughbred race horses in the logos! Draft #16 has a good color combo -- can't look like Christmas as some others are. Draft #12 is capturing the feel of speed and a strong thoroughbred presence! Again, the green with red doesn't work though.

A few general comments on what has been submitted so far.....the horse must be without a doubt a race horse; not a show horse, jumper or saddlesless horse. The sites members are hardcore thoroughbred racing guys! One logo will be used for the web banner...691 x 150 and must include the tag line "Talking Horses Since 1999"; and must be PaceAdvantage.com. The other logo is for apparel and should have a version with and without the .com Thanks for your contributions!

Draft #9 has too much green. Likely needs a three color combo like Draft #6 but in colors that go with the green. Logo is to be used for embroidery so it can't use spectrum color.

Draft #6 is headed in the right direction. I would like to see that in the green tones. Thanks.

Draft #5 is better. I would likely keep the text colour as one -- maybe try other fonts. It would be nice to see some other concepts completely different from this from you.

Draft #4 shows promise. Not sure about the horse part though.

Draft #3 is better but the use of color is not right. Red, White & Blue was just a suggestion if it worked with the logo but those colors don't work with the green. You would need to go in one direction or the other.

I appreciate the attempt but this isn't really what I'm looking for.
