Cool [Contest] - Logo - UpTo $50.00


Right,

I've trawled through these forums for along time, and have even entered several design / logo comps myself, al be it I'm not that good

So, I thought I would be bold, and have a go at actually having a contest myself. I hope everyone gives it a go.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/web-development-wanted/103762-contest-logo-upto-50-00-a.html

Contest Rules:-

Contest Length
The contest will run for a period of 1 week (7days) as from the time and date of this post.

The Site : MemorySpot.com

The Deal
We reserve the right to choose or not choose a winner at the end of the 7 days. This is why it says "upto" $50. When there is one that "grabs me by the short and curlies" tthen we have a winner Otherwise, I may make you an offer for your work, and it has potential but isnt "the one".

A Winner = $50.00 to that person.


The Concept
People will be able to visit the site, and search for collectables and gifts. There are multiple sections covering the goods we offer.
To name but a few:-

Postcards (from 1900-1970) (Main Area 40,000+ items)
First Day Covers
Fine Wines (£50-100+ per bottle)
Rare Liquers
Sports Memrobilia (could be a big section)

IT IS UK CENTRIC!!!

People would search for a particular date, lets say my birthday, 28-dec-72

We may or may have something relevant on that date. So, I would purchase that, it would come in a nice package, etc so it can be given as a gift. Or, utilised by a collector.

There is deffinately a feeling of the past, and nostalgia, however, it's got to say stylish...and be "with it" from an online/internet perspective (*shrugs*..lol).

The final design and product must be supplied in a PSD layered file, as good a quality as possible, without being a 100meg file And also scalable.


Colours
As far as colors go, have a look at : http://ms.sy4.com
The soft red and light blue are likely to stay...but not confirmed.

I'm also going to say a white background. As this keeps it simple.



.... Ok....
I think I've managed to include everything i think
Good luck all, and I cant wait to see what is shown. I've found this one a hard cookie to crack, hence the contest

Rgds
Matt / Sy4
MSN : mpw27@totalise.co.uk

UPDATE :-
I have now set up a page where you can actually test your logos.

First, upload your image. For example, mine is at : http://ms.sy4.com/header.jpg

Therefore, enter the domain :
http://ms.sy4.com/index2.php?x=ms.sy4.com/header.jpg

(Make sure you have removed the HTTP:// )

*********************** UPDATE ******************
Ok, slight change of rules. You can go for pure corporate logo if you like aswell.

You said that the sports memorabilia section would be big, so I decided to focus on that. Its all vector and, if chosen, logo will be suppled in .jpg, .gif, .eps, .ai and .psd formats.

Feedback would be much appreciated!

Will,

Not a bad opener (sorry about shorter post earlier, in a rush)....

IT IS UK CENTRIC!!! <--- take note plaese

Therefore think Cricket, Football (not US), Rugby...not BaseBall, BasketBall etc...

I would prefer it to feel more nostalgic...kinda has the feeling of "US Footbal/Baseball arcade"

See above, as I have added a slight "update" so you can test the logo.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=103762

Additional Note : Tippy suggested an animated clock going backwards as the "O" in spot. Not a bad idea if someone wants to try it

OK, I'll work on a different figure. Is the rest of the layout good for you?

Me too

Will post later

EDIT: OK, I'm done with it.

This one took me a long time to do. I really hope you like it.

The clock is made by me, so if you want it edited, that's ok (however it might take a while; it's a lot of work).

It can be resized, of course, to make it fit into your site.

Also, the exact same red color is used in my logo as in the preview site (http://ms.sy4.com/index2.php?x=). Any colors can be changed.

Please give me feedback on how to make it better, if it's not exactly what you are looking for.

Here it is:

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=103762

NOTE: The gif is originally continuous... it does not stop after the first rotation. It just stops it for some reason when hosted on image hosting sites. I do not know why this is happening, so I'll figure out a way so it does not stop. I'll do this later as I am not at home right now.

Thanks a lot!

Let me know what you think.



The calandar bg is for the web, the clean line for print.
Thanks for your consideration.

Here is a screen shot of your page with the logo inserted:

Wow, I just went onto a different computer and the animation is working perfectly without a problem. I guess it was just with that computer? The hand is now moving contunuously.

Is anyone not seeing the animation continuously?

EDIT: Also, if somebody wants my clock, I can sell it to them hehe. Full with resale rights (and of course I can make it so it goes forwards)

sorry folks.

Nothing really impresses me a great deal so far.

Remember, this is more about a corporate logo....

Here's my first try, not sure if you'll like this route or want something more corporate...the old font represents the olden day, nostalgic aspect:



Thanks.

Morning Everyone.

Thanks for all your input so early on. Alot of what I'm seeing so far, is stuff that I've covered kinda sorta myself whilst trying to do the design. I know, I know, this is ALOT harder than your normal "domain / Hosting" design. Welp, didnt say it was easy

So far, I would say "lextalionis" is the best. Although even that isnt really what I'm looking for....ish.

There are my revisions. I decided to go for Tennis. With Wimbledon being held in London and recently finishing, I thought it would be a topic of the moment - and it's british

Well, am I heading in the right direction? Please tell me any more revisions you would like doing!

** Update **

I've selected the better ones so far. I still havent found "the one". The 2 company owners will be reviewing all the entries I put put here. If you can supply the link, makes life a little easier.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=103762

http://ms.sy4.com/index.html

Just to re-iterate the slight change. Rather than a themed logo, I am also considering a good "Corporate" logo in the same name. However, I would want some kind of "collage banner" produced to go with it

Otherwise, keep them coming in
