    Thanks for the kind words.
    Looking at them again I think the balance is off a bit, but glad you like them.

    cosgraves ones are very good, very bright and clean looking although the 4th one is a bit too close to some eircom design and the snail is a cool idea but im not mad on the font used for ireland

    You chaps close ot a decision yet?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭heggie


    very poor show, insulting to all of us that actually made an effort.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13 HolyCow


    Have to admit it is quite slow, almost as slow as Irish Broadband who are still sending me invoices even though they've taken the thing off the roof!

    Any news Cg?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭heggie


    how? because some of us put time and effort into our designs for you, and you couldnt be bothered replying to this thread when asked if there was any news.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,884 ✭✭✭cgarvey


    No news, we've all but decided on one logo. But our website is on hold while we do a new consumer website, which will be out very soon. Then, assuming we sort out copyright, we'll announce the logo winner.

    Cool Thanks :)

    I appreciate the effort. I've been putting a lot of work into this myself, so I can appreciate the effort. However, I've kept the thread updated with news, when there was any, and I've answered all the questions asked of me. I can't do any more. So, I'm more than "bothered to update the thread".


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭heggie


    holycows question was unanswered for over 1 month, you probably just forgot about the thread, happens all of us, i just thought it was poor show as people were putting in effort for free to ireland offline and forgotten about, so perhaps now you can see 'how' in relation to my comments. a little 'sorry about that' would have been a better responce than 'eh how'


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,884 ✭✭✭cgarvey


    Ah, now you're making more sense. Apologies to holycow for not responding. The answer is still "no", or rather "almost". Don't see how it's insulting to the rest of you. If ye are insulted, I offer my apologies!

    We'll decide ASAP, as we've always intended to do, in case that impacts on the donors of time (not sure how it would, but just in case).

    Just to update .. the committee went with heggie/Effect Design Consultancy's design, which can be seen on the IrelandOffline site now.

    I'm not sure there's any point in going through the decision process in public, but if anyone wants feedback, PM/email me, and I'll offer the reactions, etc. I'll also be doing a post on the site to thank all that took part, with sample works / links. I'll contact you when I get around to that.

    We're all very busy, so our show of appreciation is underwhelming at best. We do appreciate all of your efforts though, and would like to thank you all for offering up your skills like that.

    Thank you on behalf of IrelandOffline!
