The entire process of working with the various designers was a wonderful creative endeavour. The volumen and variety of the designs was incredibly fruitful. I watn to say thanks to all the artists. You all provided amazing work, which made selecting one design difficult.
Ultimately, we chose a designer who a late entry to the project. His first proposal had a single element stood out. We thought that element might have something. He took it and ran with modified, then removed it and replaced it with something even better.
I highly recommend 99Designs to anyone. It's the best way to receive various ideas to guide your project - especially if you're like me who wasn't sure what I wanted.
