@Agrace. Back to draft #38. Can you take this draft and reduce the font size of Altair until it matches the width of the narrower Capital Management, LLC line? Hopefully that makes sense, if not please message back.

@araknostudio. On draft #36, can you try a different font for the text, and maybe work in the LLC? How about one with a little color as well? (Nothing crazy as what I really like about it is the simplicity of it).

@Agrace. Thanks for the update with draft #65. Another request, can I see that one with the size of ALTAIR reduced? I still want the same width (and larger than the text below it), but it seems too large relative to the logo. If you could put together a few with different size ALTAIR text it would be very helpful. @Hetal. Thanks for the updates as well. @InfiniGroup, @jsthrissur, @Hexart. Thanks for the nice submissions.

@Agrace. For draft #38, can you make the "CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, LLC" line match the width of "ALTAIR"? I'm ok with the font size, maybe just space the letters a bit further apart? Thanks.

@hetal, sorry for the mistake in my last post. I meant draft #61.

@hetal. Draft #54 looks good. Couple of thoughts. What about having the green line zig-zag a little more from left to right in an upward direction to represent more of a positive stock chart / equity curve. Also, can I see it with the wording in all upper case at least as wide as the logo? Similar to some of the other submissions. Thanks again. @koncepts. Thanks again. I like the new submissions.

@koncepts. Thanks for the submissions. I do like #39 and the simplicity of it. I like the star reference in draft #40, but the color scheme doesn't work for me. @agrace. Draft #38 is the one I like best of your latest submissions. I like the color scheme in that one much better than #37. The 3D logo in drafts #34 & #35 feels a bit too chunky for me.

@CreativeAlys. The alphas look too chunky for me in drafts #29 & #30, might not have been a great idea on my part to begin with. I do like what you did with #27 & #28 -- still reminds me of the alpha letter. @InfiniGroup. I want to like drafts #23 & #24, but everytime I look I see the Infiniti car logo. #25 just doesn't work for me, sorry I can't give more explanation on that one, more of a subjective thing on my part. @emdad. I mostly like #33, but the layout is not to my liking. Seems like the logo towers over Altair. Maybe a smaller logo and a little wider Altair. Thanks again everyone.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I'm going to eliminate a few just to keep it reasonable and provide some more feedback a bit later in the day when I have more time.

@anujdate. Thank you for your submissions. The logo part is a bit overwhelming to me in your drafts (#10 & #9).

@Agrace. Draft #12 is one of my favorites. I do like the color scheme of draft #11 but imho the logo looks like it is incomplete with the bottom half of that box empty / showing a slight reflection. Any chance you can try and do something similar to what you did in #12 with the color / top half of the logo in #11?

@Dave0585, can I see draft #8 with Altair Capital Management, LLC to the right on one line. Also to the right as two lines of text as you have it now, but with both lines of text the same width (for example by spacing out the letters in Altair, or going smaller with Capital Management, LLC). Thanks again.

@Dave0585. Draft #8 looks good, I like the logo much better than the previous. Color scheme looks good as well.

Another suggestion, probably would have been good to have in the brief. One of the things we do is to generate "alpha". That is returns in excess of the market. Maybe the greek alpha can be incorporated into the logo as well? Just a suggestion, not a requirement.

@CreativeAlys. Thanks again. I need to apologize though, my partner just noticed I mixed up my numbers as I was looking at the drafts from left to right. Draft #1 was my favorite with #3 being the least favorite (I really do apologize as I know you did further work based on my suggestions). @Dave0585. Thanks for your submission. It's feels a bit too "Star Trek" like for me.

Thanks for the submissions CreativeAlys. Couple of quick thoughts. I like the color scheme in all, #3 is my favorite, #1 is my least favorite. I'm curious how #3 would look using the font of #2, also how #3 would like with the logo downsized a bit and to the left of the text (although it might be a bit too much on one line). Thanks again.
