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

Modern
Sophisticated
Professional

What colors would you like?

I'm open to different ideas although I have read that it is best to avoid red which may be symbolic of anger or blood. Certainly Blue and Green are "soothing" colors which would be a nice image to convey. My current logo uses Maroon, Purple, Gold in an attempt to convey a "regal" image. The Gold has always been problematic - in some formats it looks like an ugly pea green and it's difficult to print consistently. I have seen some nice examples of Black and Gold but I'm leery of the gold for the reason just described.

How many colors do you want in your design?

not sure

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

Please, NO designs with "floating" or "dancing" teeth. In other words, no molars with exposed roots! This is an extracted tooth and NOT the image we want to convey.

My very first logo (~10 years ago) made use of my initials - DK with the "D" as a diagonal smile and the "K" as a person. I liked this concept but it always looked somewhat unrefined and cartoon-ish because of the colors. My current logo is just plain boring and the colors are too dark and were difficult to print consistently. I have uploaded my old logo and current logo for your review.

I have seen many logos with extracted teeth, stick figures, etc. which I don't find very impressive. I'm not convinced that I need an "icon" (tooth, smile, person, etc.) related to dentistry in my new logo, but I'm open to incorporating one or more of these elements if cleverly done. I'm interested to see the creativity of logos with my initials, dental icons, and even abstract images. THANKS!

Thank you for all of your hard work. I appreciate your time and talents, as well as for providing me with so many designs to choose from. This has been a great experience and I will be using Mycroburst again soon for new business card and letterhead design. I hope to see you participate in those projects as well. Take care.

Just a quick note - I like the drafts in which some of you are showing the "icon" centered and above the text AND also the "icon" on the left of the text. Both of these versions are helpful to see. In addition, it's also interesting to see the black and white version as well. Thank you!

Thank you for your efforts so far. I appreciate everyone reading the creative brief so closely, but almost all of the designs I've received so far are blue and green with my initials. I would really like to see other ideas from your creative minds. Please try some different colors and different concepts. If you use the color green, please avoid lime green. There have been some good designs with my initials DGK, but please realize that I think DK would be fine as well. Thanks!

Attention Designers!! MycroBurst permits you to submit unlimited designs with unlimited variations. However, if you are providing 2 or 3 different color versions of the same logo in one draft, please make sure that if the particular draft gets finalized, each color version should be separated before you will send the final files. Thanks, MB/LDG/LS Team
