Thanks hashbaz!  I am really enjoying the whole process - it's a lot of work, but strangely entertaining.  Also learning lessons along the way (i.e. PayPal is greedier than I anticipated)  Looking forward to running more GBs!

3 more payments guys!

Pretty sure that no more orders are being taken. You might be able to convince somebody to sell you extras though.

It's thin... but I won't be too upset if it ends up being the final product.

So it has nothing to do with Hazeluff's SVG.

Yup, the color is different (seems like a different shade of blue was used) and also the logo is too thin compare to the original mockup.

The color looks darker than BE

I wrote Melissa an email pointing out that it was thinner than expected, the middle of the W does not match the SVG, I was not shown the prototype as I asked, and that the color looks wrong but I can confirm that when they arrive tomorrow (maybe bad camera).

She is usually quick to respond between 11-12 central time so I will keep you guys posted.

Just as a reminder, last payment on this GB was less than 2 weeks ago, I'm hoping to have this resolved and delivered within or under the usual 4 weeks for production.

Its clear that most people are somewhere on the spectrum of underwhelmed to disappointed.

I want to have these fixed and assuming SP cooperates I will, even if that involves more cost to me personally.
