Thanks to everyone who took part. Our first non-record week, we dropped to 416 entries (we had 444) last week. But its quality not quantity.
Now everyone internally is sending me their votes, we’ll review your comments and reveal this weeks shortlist tonight (hopefully).
In the meantime you should:
1. Read the Spreadshirt blogs - UK,DE,FR
2. Watch the funniest thing i’ve ever seen (this month) - Old Gregg from Mighty Boosh (You like baileys?) here
3. Get working on your Wk6 entries.
Remember the contest ends on Oct14th

i just wrote a comment on the blog area, but i paste it here: adam> i was wondering, we are a lot to have submitted logos on Sunday…do we have less chances to figure in the finalists because of obviously less feedback, less views etc…?
Well I can see why you might think so. You have less views and feedback, but you’re at the top so when I send the link around to everyone internally they’ll see yours first (but most of the company are following regularly anyway, so they’ll likely already have some favorites come Monday). So, on the whole I’d say it balances out, with a slight advantage to being earlier in the week.
I think it’s not so important. You can also think that if you submit your logo too early - everybody forget about it until the end or others will bit you because they now what can expect
If your logo is good - doesn’t matter but some luck is very helpful also 
thanks adam for the quick reply
in fact, when i subbed my last one on Sunday evening, i forgot that it would be in the running just for a night lol, but your answer makes me peacefully think that everybody has the same chances, submitting it on monday or on sunday… 
(k)now: they know what you have done and they can do something better
klos> in the end, you are absolutly right, all is abour the quality of the logo itself ^^
@adam: long breakfast?
hehe, yep i’ve been working on some other todo’s (reclassifying old entries etc). Full post on main blog coming up later with this weeks shortlist if not before.
Seems none of the comments from Jana’s video really applied to the final choices in week 5. They were quite plain, especially with more of the same circles etc. Also most don’t show anything about what the company does. So is it really just a simple side bubble type of logo you want or one that expresses what you sell?
HI Confused. I’ve just have the same feeling about it. This is my recent post in Adam’s thread:
Congratulations to the w5k’s shortlist!! But just a CONSTRUCTIVE critic to the judge this 5th week: WHERE are CEO Jana thinks about OLP…? I mean:
————–
If your going to do tag ideas though, maybe we could explore the tags inside the neck idea further.
“We’ve seen enough hang tags
- Feel free to be more artistic, and a less literal with your designs (ie they don’t have to include shirt, tag, etc)
- Prefers stacked (one above the other) Spread & Shirt, with more emphasis given to Spread. Our research has suggested that people can best understand it that way.
- Feel free to go a little crazier, surprise us a little more.”

I can not find any of those Jana recommendations in any of 5th week chosen designs (except maybe one of the designs). Regards.
HI grafismo, thanks I will check your comment out over in the other message board and see what others say. I am more shocked every time I look at the finalists, especially the repeats! What a wasted week.
