Just to confirm what you want, you want the colors to be more vibrant with realistically gold-colored land having shading and reflections, and vibrant blue oceans? what do you want the background color to be? any clue what fonts you want? size and color?
(you’re right, the emails were going to spam)

Yes, that’s correct.
I think a plain white background would be the best for colour differentiation and making it stand out.
I’ve no idea about Fonts and Text right now. I guess the best would be if it was something that could be updated during future team discussion. I can imagine someone might think to make a ‘public happiness board game’, and we already have a Public Happiness Documentary coming out. So bring able to update would be useful 🙂

I can save it as an image file that includes no background which I imagine would be best.
Would having no country lines be more friendly maybe? Suggesting the world is more united instead of divided.
For fonts would you rather I leave that up to you and it could be separate from the logo? You can adjust fonts as easily as I can. Lots of free fonts exist too, like at websites such as [dafont.com](http://dafont.com) and [fontspace.com](http://fontspace.com)
If you aren’t satisfied with any then I can try to come up with some font options for you.

that’s a very good insight! \<3
i was looking at the original image, and i think they achieved a very slightly more accurate heart shape.

100% agree with the 1st.
the second sounds great, although graphic design isn’t an area i’m strong in so i would love to begin with your suggestions

it’s going, but i keep needing to ask forums for help on how to do things. that’s why it’s taking so long. blender is a really complicated program, but i think the logo will look great eventually

Wow! Yes, it absolutely is 🧡
I had imagined brighter blue and more light gold… but I’m not so sure now, that looks amazing with the more natural ocean blue.
What more work do you plan to do on it?

I think that colour scheme is perfect. We’ll mount it on a white background so it really pops out

That’s looking fabulous!
I think what Andy was trying to say was that the colour scheme is perfect, while there is a little space for the ocean to ‘pop’ a little more.
Partly that’s because the dark spots in the middle of the ocean, they look interesting but grab the attention a bit too much creating a darker experience. I wouldn’t get rid of it, just lighten the tone of that area.
The other part is a balance, that blue tone is beautiful. It might be possible to pull some extra luminescence from it without losing the tone, which would really make the logo catch the eye.
The gold is absolutely breathtaking! As @AndyatFocallocal mentioned light perhaps slightly expanding the really bright parts would achieve that. I wouldn’t touch it much though as it is brilliant!
I would guess the light within the image and it ‘popping out’ from the background, is going to be key for catching the eye in times when the logo is small

Can we use a map from Australia in the center as it will show all of the continents in the map?

i think that would be pretty odd to have australia in the wrong place. i don’t think any australians would mind being unrepresented 😛 china and many countries are missing too so it’s not really unfair to only fit what can fit

@AndyatFocallocal I agree with what Isiah has said about it being odd if Australia were to be added in the middle of the logo. I think some users that will visit the site might also question the placement. If the logo is going to be mounted on a white background, then users will notice the 3D logo. So, not all the countries can fit on the side that is showing. Countries in Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Oceania, and some of the countries in the Southwest Pacific region are not there. There will be other opportunities on the site that will showcase the world map.

So our logo shows all of the world

Also feedback which @MarinaOhNo and Olga sent to me, rather than posting here 🧐
Was that it felt a little too serious and businessy needed a little magic. I think that would be achieved with the lighter blue glow from the water I was talking about before.
Maybe this shade of blue is more what I was thinking though, or even a shade brighter (if it looks good)
Something like this: [https://images.app.goo.gl/SAn36y8RrnoE6RoJ9](https://images.app.goo.gl/SAn36y8RrnoE6RoJ9)
Do you guys think that change would bring the magic into the logo? (And please reply here so I’m not acting as everyone’s telephone)

@MarinaOhNo and Olga what do you mean by magic? Like do you want the logo to be more welcoming? Changing the shade of blue will definitely change the mood. Light blue can symbolize calmness and some other things.
I found a few examples of light blue that is around the color examples that Andy has linked.
