Hi all,
I was thinking about springing for a 99 designs logo design package.
Not to come up with anything final, just to get more options on the
table.
They'll solicit designs from 30 or so designers, and then we can pick
the best one.
Some of the questions that they ask before they solicit entries from
designers are below, please let me know if anyone has any suggestions
for changes/additions/removals. I'll kick the process off tomorrow
night.

Is there anything else you would like to communicate to the designers?
Grin is an in-development cryptocurrency, like bitcoin, that has a
focus on user privacy and efficiency.
I'd like to convey privacy, security, and permanence with the logo.
The Grin project is also somewhat playful in its messaging,
incorporating a somewhat magical, wizards and witches theme, so an
attempt at conveying that would be great too, although without is also
totally fine.
Do you have a slogan you want incorporated in your logo?
No. ("Put your money where your mouth is." would be a funny one though.)
Describe what your organization or product does and its target audience
Grin is a cryptocurrency. Like bitcoin, it allows users to transmit
value across a peer-to-peer network. It's main advantages over bitcoin
are that it has very strong privacy protection, and it is very
efficient.
Grin isn't developed by an organization, per-se. There is a lead
developer, and a number of other contributing developers who write the
code together. Eventually when things are a bit further along, it's
likely that an organization will be created.
What name do you want in your logo?
"grin" all lower case
Pick some color themes.
I went with a blue palette, a dark grey palette, and a "designers
choice" palette.

my first reaction to the globe was that I thought it was a peanut. Other
than that, I think there needs to be better integration between the mark and
the word. They don’t seem to match or compliment yet. I think part of the
problem is the stroke width of the text and globe are different, but not
different enough. Perhaps see what it looks like if you thicken the word to
match the lines in the globe? And then take it the other way.
I love the mustard color though.

Thanks,
I've attached another with the text font changed to Helvetica, which I think
fits the potter theme a little better.
Thanks in advance,

Something a bit more modern and basic.

Since mailing list activity is light, I thought I'll submit a second
iteration of the globe-with-a-grin concept. Monochrome simplified icon with
a more prominent G letter, same grin; and, same icon but with a secondary
color (arbitrary shade of green). Is anyone else fond of the idea of having
a globe outline which forms a big grin on the bottom half?
