25$ NHL forum Logo Contest

[aboujouj83]

Hi Designers,

I've just finished building a hockey forum at www.qnhl.com. I created a quick logo for it but I would like to have a better quality one. I need something that follows the ideas below:

1) qnhl.com stands for quality NHL forum. You can see that on my current logo. So I'd like to have a quality picture (a save by a goalie, a nice shot ... ) as a logo, and I would like to have the slogan ("A Quality NHL Forum") in a smaller but readable font, with the "Q" of Quality, "NHL" and the ".COM" in a different color so you see the domain name QNHL.com in the slogan.

2) I'd like to have it matched with the red/blue colors of the current forum.

3) I'd like it to place the logo once it's done on the left side of the header of the page, so I can place an adsense on the right. You can look at www.football365.fr , http://hfboards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=86, www.maxifoot.fr, www.namepros.com as examples. So design the logo knowing that it won't occupy more than 20-30% of the left part of the header.

4) Be creative!!

5) The contest ends on August 2nd (Tuesday) at 5pm EST.

5) I'd pay 25$ US via PayPal to the winner directly after the contest ends i.e. around 6pm, August 2nd.

6) The final winner has to give me a .gif or .jpg with an editable vector format

I uploaded some quality pictures that you can use or use as an idea:

I am waiting for your logos, and I will give you feedback as often as possible.

Hi aboujouj83,

Here's my entry. Please note that this is 100% vector artwork (can grow/shrink, change colors combinations, without losing quality).

#1

#2

Because this is a web logo, we can spice it up a little.

Feedback is appreciated.

thanks

170designs: I like your logo, I donno if it can be improved or made more compact, but it's really nice.

guetizo: nice logos, but they don't follow the requirements correctly. I'd like to see a quality picture behind the sloga, please read my first post again.

Polunet: New look, but not better logo. I liked the other one more because of the color. I don't see that the colors of this logo matches well with those of the forum. But I like the effect done on the logo.

Sheldchenko: Much better attempt! My comment is that I think that the picture has to be shrinked to be made more compact.

lextalionis: You are complicating my life! lol...Your logo is nice, but the picture can be better I think.

depthskins.com: Cool logos, but I need better qualities logo in terms of pictures and color matching.

Thanks for all of you!
One more day,
Aboujouj83

Had to try one with the Lord Stanley:

I wasn't sure if you meant the picture was bad or the quality was lacking so I used some filters to sharpen the pic.

Thanks for all the participants, many of the logos were really good. I'd like to give credits to the other designers whom I really liked the logos. So the second place goes to krishm and third place to PolurNET. I am going to pay the winner tonight and I will give positive ratings to the top 3 designers.

See you in others contests and hope you will register in qnhl.com when I will finish it soon. Cheers.
