Hi Danae,
I think you are on the right track with these. I need more time to look at them. I do know one thing I would like to see: Catholic Parish spread out, fully justified, whatever you call it beneath Holy Trinity. I don't like the trapped white space between the name and the image. Also, please try the words Holy Trinity in both upper case and in small caps on at least one of the versions to give us a sense of what that might do.

Enjoy the holiday.

Hi Danae,
I really like elements of both but I’d also like it to appear more from a distance like a glow in the sky.
One thing I’ve done with some graphic artists in the past is we meet and tweak together. As in, I describe what I’d like and you modify it in real time. Would you be open to that?

Hi Danae,
Thanks for all your support yesterday!
Could you adjust the graphic so it more resempbles the the attached photo?
Observe how:
1. The steeple looks flipped, It angles toward the text rather than away. (See attached)
2. A creamie rather than grey glow for the steeple lantern.
3. Viewing the cross at an angle, as if it's looking at the name of the parish.

I look forward to talking with you.

Hi:
We are meeting to review our site map. Could one of you please send us the template we chose?

Hi Danae,
Thank you! Progress, but not yet perfection. I still have the concern that the logo seems dwarfed by the name of the church. That said, don't touch it until I consult with staff at today's meeting. I will be out of the office tomorrow and on vacation next week, so there might be a phase of crickets from this end. I'll do my best to keep it moving forward as we need it soon.

Hi Danae,
I'm sorry to tell you that for the first time my entire staff agreed on something: their dislike for the direction of the logo. But -- look at the samples below. Our spire could go between Holy and Trinity...

Hi Danae
Would 11am this Thursday work for you?

Got it. Thanks

Hi Danae,
I will be about 15 minutes late for the meeting, less if possible.
Please check out this Holy Trinity Parish Logo
The font is Vectis
We are wondering if you have access to that font?

Hi Danae,
Thank you for the followup. What is your availability Thursday morning?

Hi Danae: I apologize for my belated response. Would 1p Thursday work for you?

So far the feedback has been helpful. Some tweaks will be necessary but we will get there soon.
One question: are you sure the dimensions will work well with facebook, stationary, etc?

Hi Danae,
Our staff meeting is tomorrow, and I'm a bit anxious about how people will respond to the logo draft. I am still partial to the option with the steeple to the right, but I will also show them the one centered.

My biggest concern is how the dimensions will work with on various publications and media. For example, attached you will find what the logo would look like on the parish calendar. How do we integrate the other pertinent information -- address, etc., into the logo?

Meanwhile, three requests:
1. Could you please make the cross larger on Sept. Option 01 and 02.
2. From that, create versions with Catholic Parish in the serif font like Holy Trinity
3. Instead of Comstock Park put "Alpine"
(The official name of our parish is Holy Trinity Parish - Alpine)
Thanks!

My earlier email was missing the image.

Got it, yes.

Great vacation, but re-entry is intense... I will do my best to get back with you this week.

Hi Danae,
God willing, our staff meeting is Thursday. We also have a web meeting with Cody that day. Please be careful out there: We still have people out sick with Covid and the flu. Last week, we were down four people.

Hi Danae,
Yesterday while meeting with Cody, he could easily pull up the thread that shows the evolution of the logo development with the various versions. But because we don't have Basecamp, gmail only lets me pull up your last response or two. Is there a way you could email the whole thread?

I emailed Cody because he didn't understand what I was referring to when I mentioned a frustration with Basecamp. I couldn't explain to him the challenge. .

Hi Danae,

What is your availability next Wednesday afternoon or Thursday?

I can make that work, but 2:15 would be better. Would that be possible?

Hi Danae,
In my earlier email I asked if you could meet at 2:15, but didn't hear

Hi Danae,
I look forward to talking with you. I'll watch for the link.

One question: What do we use for an icon? I looked at St. Pius X in Grandville. They kept the same logo we designed when I was there but modified it slightly.

Thanks Danae. I'm using some of this stuff as part of our bulletin and worship aid for Christmas. That will help me see how it all works. What are the fonts you used?

Thanks Danae. As you can imagine, I'm swamped here. Have a blessed Christmas Season!

Hi Danae,
Happy New Year a little late. Forgive me for not replying to you. I am partly embarrassed by how difficult it has been for me to land on a final logo, partly frustrated, and just busy.

I am doing a "soft rollout" of the new logo. (I know that goes against typical usual protocol, but things around here have been pretty random with logo usage for years.) I am learning that working with it can be frustrating because of it having no clear center point.

Could you please send me an image with just the spire? I want to try something.
Thank you for your patience and help.

Hi Arthur,
Apologies for belated reply. I am still partial to the one we've been working on. It needs some more tweaking.

Hi Arthur and Danae,
Yet another apology for the belated reply. The logo that I want us to tweak is the one that we've been tweaking. Would you two have time next Thursday morning 3/3 after 10 am or afternoon after 1 and before 3?

That works. Thank you.

Dear Arthur and Danae,
THank you for all your patience and good humor in this process. I am in a depression and thus it's difficult for me to get excited about anything. (Except maybe skiing, which I haven't gotten to do much.)

Be well!
