$30 - WorstRestaurant.com logo

cyates · 11-02-2005, 07:30 AM

Contest deadline is 11/9/05 midnight.
Payout is $30.

The website will be used to post stories about the worst restaurant you've ever been to. There will be a best worst story, and a way to see worst restaurants in your area or nationally. It's meant to be fun and humorous.

The logo can be anything your imagination can think of, however, ".com" should appear in the logo.

Thanks.

First concept:

100% vector image, feedback appreciated

cyates · 11-02-2005, 10:41 AM

will: I like it! Nice slogan, too.

Would you mind doing a few variations?

Like, maybe have "Worst" red instead of restaurant. Maybe have a line under "WorstRestaurant" and above the slogan. Maybe a few different icons in the "no" sign similar to what you have? Maybe a black hamburger outline.

Looks really good, thanks.

I guess you can't have two posts in a row, because I keep trying to add a reply but it's getting appended to my last post. Anyway, here it is:
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/design-contests/136949-30-worstrestaurant-com-logo.html

I thought of an idea if anyone wants to try it in their logo, a black outline/silluoette of a stick figure head with an X for a mouth..

but please don't everybody use this..I'm looking for different creative ideas..

guetizo · 11-02-2005, 08:38 PM

Hi cyates,

Heres my try. 100% vector.

Feedback is appreciated.

cyates · 11-03-2005, 09:26 AM

guetizo: very nice, I like that one a lot. The only thing I might like better is if the guys head were more circular than oval. Not sure unless I see it to compare, though.

got two good ones off the bat! Thanks guys!

italks · 11-03-2005, 09:48 AM

will7 i think you have got really good logo for worst restaurant since it goes great with the theme.anyway it upto cyates to choose the best option.Good luck everyone.

Ok. Thanks for the feedback. I will work on the revision as soon as I get back home.

Sounds great, I would welcome the different look.

will7 · 11-03-2005, 02:16 PM

My revisions, played around with colour schemes and symbols a bit:

Obviously colours and symbols can be mixed and matched and things. Feedback appreciated

EmanEvan · 11-03-2005, 02:23 PM

My first attempt. Feedback appreciated.

cyates · 11-03-2005, 03:01 PM

will: thanks for making the variations. So far, I like #4 the best, forget the hamburger idea (#2 could also be a hotdog, a football, or a ufo

) I did like the little swoosh you had in the first concept, so maybe #4 with the swoosh and I wouldn't be able to think of anything else to change.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=136949

If you did want to try the hamburger again, maybe put little white spots to signify poppy seeds, have squigly lines for lettuce, the meat part a little shorter, and the bottom half of the bun less rounded than the top. It's up to you if you want to try this, because I really like the fork. You immediately associate fork with eating, and the no sign clearly comes across as "don't eat here".

EmanEvan: That looks pretty good, thanks! I'm not sure that I would use that color scheme, however. A couple of other things I might like different: curve the ends of the handles on tha ladles, so that they look less like golf clubs. Maybe not have the box protruding from the bottom of the oval in the background, instead just have the oval. That's high quality work, thanks!

I can see this is going to be a tough one to decide already.

Just thought of an idea, a steaming pile of dog crap on a plate...hehe
Not sure I would use it, but thought it was funny so I posted it.

guetizo · 11-03-2005, 05:06 PM

Hi cyates,

Here's the revision requested. The guy's head is now circular for you to compare with the other design.

Feedback is appreciated.

(not too sure about the ".com" part... wouldve just placed that evenly but other than that wow... nice work)

Balmong · 11-03-2005, 06:48 PM

Thanx guys!! I really appreciate your comments.

cyates · 11-03-2005, 09:14 PM

guetizo: thanks for the alteration

balmong: I agree with the rest, awesome work. I just had to laugh when I seen the bug in a chefs outfit, that's great. Would be like the websites mascot, all he needs is a name.

I think I agree with sylense about the .com part. Also, would it be too much to ask you to animate it? It would be awesome if he was animated to have an evil laugh while he was shaking the salt shaker..

If I decide to go cartoony, I doubt there could be any submission to top that! Thanks balmong!

cyates · 11-05-2005, 07:16 PM

No more entries so far Balmong, everybody must think you have this locked up.
