## **Additional Participation Appreciation Support + Big Vote: Gratitude in sharing abundance** ##### **PLEASE WAIT & READ first before scrolling to see who won** To show our immense appreciation for all the meaningful forethought and hard work put into this contest by everyone involved - I called up the tribe to pledge donations to create an additional prize pool, so that everyone who participated that did not place in the contest will still receive a reward! Thanks to donations from @Abundance.Tribe members @elamental, @riverflows, @bewithbreath, @eco-alex, @notconvinced, @naturalmedicine, @porters, @artemislives, @krnel, @canna-curate (@jonyoudyer), @trucklife-family, & @bobaphet - **we have generated a pool of 330 HIVE to be evenly distributed across the 17 artist accounts that did not receive a prize! That works out to almost 20 HIVE per account (19.41)!!** This is also ***IN ADDITION*** to the heafty @tribesteemup votes each of you are receiving on one of your logo blog posts! I asked the tribe to really exemplify the **ABUNDANCE** thing here (as a community) and show up for all the artists and their hard work in our logo project. We want all of you to feel that you are extra appreciated (because you are) for being involved in our community, no matter how small of a way, or short of a time... we also realize most of you need it more than most of us, and are happy to accommodate return support to such a vast array of artistic talent. Check your transfer history for your rewards - and we would be honored and very much hope to see you all again in future @ELAmental hosted logo contests. # **THANK YOU!!** ![daltono_sep2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/gpwLsLUh-daltono_sep2.png) # Abundance Tribe Logo Voting The internal tribe member discussion on *Discord* was executed in stages, and was extremely close through the entire sequence. First, all members were given a chance to nominate up to four designs they would like to win. There were quite a few nominations (appropriate for the consistent quality across the board), so only nominations that received additional support were carried into the first round of voting (which was still 13 designs). The account's design with the most votes actually had 2 other designs with higher numbers than others as well, but that account will only receive a first place prize (no account can win more than one prize). The rest of the Dpoll resulted in a **5-WAY TIE** for 2nd/3rd place! - which spurred another round of votes. ![COMBO_2ND3RDPLACE.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/sNHn6i7B-COMBO-_2ND-3RD-PLACE.jpg) The second round of voting was only between the five designs that were tied up to determine who would win 2nd & 3rd place. Unlike the first round of voting, where each tribe member had three votes to use on the three designs they favored the most (could not vote for any design more than once), members were only given one vote in this final round. The last round was just as neck and neck as the first, and all of you should feel very proud of yourselves for providing such tough competition for the rest of the contestants. Bravo! ![jossduarte_sep.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/rKwhjgsJ-jossduarte_sep.png) # **CONTEST WINNERS** So without further ado, I present to you the top three @Abundance.Tribe logos as chosen by our community. Keep in mind that there are still many members that will want to use your designs that may or may not have placed for a prize in this contest, so please keep & back-up your project files in case someone would like you to update and/or personalize one of your logos for them. # 1st PLACE - 750 HIVE PRIZE ## @CapitanZek ![capitanzek_3desCOMBO.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/ybfPRzjv-capitanzek_3des-COMBO.jpg) #### [**CapitanZek's Original Logo Design Blog Post**](https://peakd.com/abundancetribe/@capitanzek/abundance-tribe-logo-design-contest-2-my-entry) All three of these designs submitted by @CapitanZek placed in the top tier on the first round of voting, with the one on top receiving the highest tribe support. Giving recognition to all three of these receiving heavy community support. Using a symbol that is reminiscent of the @NaturalMedicine logo (to a degree) is actually appropriate as AT & NM are certainly allies with overlapping values and members. This design is professional, while still holding elements of the elemental with fire (sun), water, Earth, life, and the lotus flower growing from the roots of infinity is a tasteful inclusion. I believe the wind element could be easily implemented into this design with some circular rotation around the outer edge of the logo, and should provide a little more contrast from the natural medicine logo by possibly updating and enhancing both logos for each respective community. I am also a huge fan of the mirror-reflecting font and the three water bubble droplets above the flower tip. @CapitanZek - Please save all your project files for these designs. I will be contacting you shortly to make some additional adjustments to the top placed design, and humbly request creation of accompanying page separators and banners once those adjustments are made. Are you on *Discord*? Please comment below. Outstanding manifests friend! ![lisbethseijas_sep2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/HvmWAk1J-lisbethseijas_sep2.png) # 2nd PLACE - 250 HIVE PRIZE ## @LisbethSeijas ![lisbethseijasCOMBO2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/QhsoewxC-lisbethseijas-COMBO2.jpg) #### [LisbethSeijas' Comprehensive ESP/ENG Logo Blog Post](https://peakd.com/hive-148441/@lisbethseijas/esp-eng-proposal-logo-separator-and-banner-for-community-abundance-tribe-entry-1-by-lisbethseijas-propuesta-logo-separador-y) While I love the professionalism, representation of elemental forces, and appropriateness of @CapitanZek's 1st place logo, this logo by @LisbethSeijas is my personal favorite. This design struck me in a way that no emblematic idol ever has, and is so intuitive, that the numerous amount of people that have seen it, each sees something different *in* it.. this transcendent icon is what is known as "zoomorphic" - a term only explained in a rare book borrowed from a friend. I believe this archaic symbol has chosen to emerge for us from a lost civilization whence we were once a part in a previous lifetime. This symbol is deciphered and seen differently by all, unless you can see past what you think you see, what you want to see, and see it for what it is (I have heard everything from a lemur and owl to a Giraffe). The numerology in the feathers/leaves, and the people inside the symbol are all significant in their own ways as well, and the original intended symbolism is only a small part of what this symbol is and represents (I will be doing a full write up about this in the near future - will link in comments here). This talented artist's thoughtful, researched, and descriptive blog post is accompanied with an amazing banner, page separator, and night and day versions of the logo (pictured here). Thank you for such an intuitively stellar entry, and allowing yourself to be a conduit for this ancient spirit to re-manifest as an etherically visible guide for healing our people and planet. P.S. - @LisbethSeijas, I would like to humbly request that you to do an alteration on the page separator with the kokopellis, and update the banner. Please save all project files related to this design entry. How can I reach out to you with an email address? Do you have Discord? Please comment below. ![lisbethseijas_banner.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/PIDT9yIN-lisbethseijas_banner.png) ![auelitairene_sep2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/HCX2Qhi4-auelitairene_sep2.png) # 3rd PLACE - 100 HIVE PRIZE ## @Auelitairene ![auelitairene_banner4.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/R7FS3Vu9-auelitairene_banner4.jpg) #### [Auelitairene's Detailed Spirit/Feng Shui Inspired ESP/ENG Logo Blog Post](https://peakd.com/abundancetribe/@auelitairene/esp-eng) You really do have to read the full logo-blog post to truly appreciate this emblem. It has everything from tribal ties of faith and trust through the gifting of feathers, to using the elephant as a personally family tied Feng Shui sign of abundance, and chakra points for an added touch of spirit & soul. While there is much more to this logo than I will describe here, this cool Venezuelan canna-enthusiast grandmother has managed to manifest quite a powerful symbol that is well liked by our tribe. I had my reserves about using the same animal as the republican political party at first, but I now see that the prominence in this particular depiction of the animal traditionally representing wisdom, is a perfect way to reorient the visibility of the original intended symbolism in an ancient sense - well before "republicans" ever existed. To me, this symbol represents a way of deprogramming what people see in things, back to how they are meant to be perceived - the feeling it creates unaltered by the socially conditioned mind. Beautiful. >Time to free the elephant (& our minds) from the political cage. ![auelitairene_banner3.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/g2tm4Vx2-auelitairene_banner3.jpg) ![auelitairene3.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/W59VREBg-auelitairene3.png) ![auelitairene_banner2.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/9hJYyKzA-auelitairene_banner2.png) ![auelitairene_sep.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/Vn0TAQun-auelitairene_sep.png) I want to let everyone know that most entries had some tribe member support to one degree or another, and many of the logos, banners, and separators will be used by different members regardless if they were a winning design or not. I like to use varying designs depending on the content type of each post I publish, so although you may see me favor some more than others, I imagine I will still use many of them over time regardless. **If any artist objects to members using their Abundance Tribe logos that were entered into this contest in our blog posts or elsewhere, please let us know so we can honor your wishes**. We are more than honored to have the opportunity to have such a plethora of quality creations to choose from at all times, crafted by such creative and quality humans. Blessings, truth, love, and major respect to all of you. Thank you so much for all your passion, hard work, and devotion to this cause! The results are pleasantly more ***abundant*** than I could have ever anticipated! ![krnel_sep4.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/elamental/bfxQe9uz-krnel_sep4.png) # Artist Info & Promo If you need assistance with creating a digital logo or design of your own, I would encourage anyone reading this to reach out directly to any of these graphic designers that matches your style, shoot them a follow, and read their design post(s) on their blogs. I am sure most of them would be more than happy to accommodate, and I think its also safe to assume many of them will also accept Hive-coin (and maybe Steem) as payment for the services provided.
