Thanks for the submission. I really like the way you did the name with the different shading, but still keeping it the same color family.

The logo itself doesn't work for me. The cloud obscuring the gauge actually makes it look like I can't see the gauge, can't see what the ...(more)

I appreciate the extra submission - but I'm heading in a different direction.

The biggest issue I have with this logo is that it has too many things going on with it -- the multiple arrows actually connote indecision, rather than a surety of idea and purpose. In addition, the red ...(more)

Thanks the additional submission. I do like the all caps approach better, and yes, I realize that the font is pretty easy to change, so I appreciate the flexibility!

This is one of the top submissions -- the alternatives take a very different approach so I'm trying to figure which one best ...(more)

This is a nice approach, but the graphic isn't strong enough to stand on its own. The hash marks are a far, far echo of the gauge, too abstract. In addition, I think the graphic is trying to also be the needle on the gauge, but it doesn't work.

I still ...(more)

Thanks for the submission. This is an interesting approach that emphasizes height and perspective, rather than anything that has to do with a gauge. At first, I didn't like it, but it's growing me.

I think the biggest issue I have is that it feels hard, masculine. The font is strong, the ...(more)

An interesting approach -- but the person inside the "a" will completely disappear when it's reduced in size on a business card. In addition, the lower case "a" just doesn't work for me -- especially because there's an upper case "A" and then a lower case "g". Feels a bit schizophrenic. ...(more)

Thanks for the submission. I think I understand the approach, but it took me a while to figure it out. The black dashes aren't straight that at first I thought it was hair, until I figured out they are the markings on a gauge.

It's a nice, clean approach, but too ...(more)

logo=
- it's the digital age, so using number 0 and 1 to form the letter "a"
- it's a social media company, so in the center, a humanoid figure with the altimeter hash mark

welcome feedback.

Hi Charlene!

Here's my proposal for your Altimeter logo. :)
I wanted to include the idea of growth in the altimeter itself. Hence, I added an arrow showing motion of the pointer going up.

I really worked hard to keep it simple yet strong.
I really hope you like it.

Thanks so much for the opportunity!

Hi Charlene Li. Thank you so much for the positive feedback and for appreciating my work. By the way, I love the name Altimeter - there is so much potential for creative branding. This new version of your logo uses a stronger type treatment in a font I think you will ...(more)

sorry here is the correct one more of a web 2.0 feel

decided not to use a meter image...

"where emerging technologies are heading"

...hence the arrows.
