Contest Title: $250.00 Design Contest
Deadline: No deadline at this time.
Prize / Delivery Method: $250 via Paypal
Website: http://www.bignutsracing.com

vBulletin 3.5.4 Skin:

Looking for something exciting and unique, not looking for something that looks as though it was purchased from a template site. Forums will utilize vB Gallery, vB CMPS and vBulletin 3.5.4. Skin must be designed properly to allow use of the "Add New Style" option within vBulletin. Included in the skin we would like to have the new buttons made as well as receive a copy of the buttons that we can edit and add in places we may need them. Change things up, make the design interesting, something that will WOW people.

Logo: (Vector Format)

In need of a unique logo for our race team "Big Nuts Racing", this logo will also be required to be integrated into the forum skin design mentioned above. Will need the logo in an .eps format for use on shirts, decals, etc. Have fun with the logo design, do not have any one style in mind so be creative (not too hard with a name like that)

Business Card Design:

Need a cutting edge Business Card Design utilizing the above mentioned logo.

T-Shirt Design (Vector Format)

I cannot release what the text will be, however, for show go ahead and just use characters. The T-Shirt will have a sentence centered on the front of it with www.bignutsracing.com under it. Once I choose a winner, we will release the text for the final product.

Only high quality work will be considered, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me via PM or e mail ([email protected]) if needbe.

Colors will be up to the designer, at this time, we do not have any specific color requirements.

We understand that while some artists may be great at logos, others may not be familiar with coding, and visa versa, therefore, we have decided to do the following:

The prize will be the entire $250.00 for all 4 items...if people wish to collaberate on this project and one does coding, the other does a logo or whatever, they can decide devide between themselves who gets what. If that "team" is chosen, they can let me know what portion each one gets and I will send them their share.

Best of luck to everyone, I look forward to seeing your ideas!

Future projects will follow since we will be needing some additional designs. Currently, we will be needing a main page built for our performance parts website.

damn, if i only knew how to skin vBulletin, maybe I can do the design for $150 and you can pay someone else $100 to make it into a skin for you?

Anyways, I will design something for this, but i will not be able to do the skin.

Thanks,
Scott.

LOL I wish I knew how to do graphic work so I could do all of these things myself

So you want all of this for $250? Coded too?

 

[jstep]

I will def enter, but its alot of work

Yes, all of this (all 4 items listed) for $250. Well the only thing that would need to be coded is the vBulletin skin, which if you are familiar with vBulletin, is a fairly easy task with the template system.

For those of you interested, I would be happy to setup a test site so that you can view the templates and get an idea.

I will def enter, but its alot of work

I figured the majority of work would be on the template and logo...the t-shirt will be a piece of cake (only 2 lines of text) and the business card, well that may take a little effort outside of integrating the logo into it.

Looking forward to everyones ideas.

Yes, that would be okay for a test site. But looking for custom unique skin and others, would probably be a little bit more than $250. Some design skins for about $250-$500 coded.

Im just saying, i could possibly do this.

Ok I will go ahead and set up the test site, will report back later with the login information.

Hi xtremeoff-road,

Not only designers here are experts on everything from designing a logo to coding a skin for a forum.
My question is, and I would like to participate in three categories (logo, bizcard, t-sirts) are you going to split the prize? And in what figure$?
Meaning if I or any other designer with no coding skills design for you a great logo and the collateral package?

 

[jstep]

I will have something for you tommorow, a test site prob would not work, due to different people competing

Sounds cool, looking forward to it!

Actually the reason for setting up the test site was not to have people code it, however, was for people to be able to look at how the templates work and to get an idea of what is needed

You bring up a very good point!

I guess the only problem is if I separate the prize, and one person wins the logo for example, I would need to have the person who wins the vBulletin skin to then change their design to incorporate that logo...know what I mean?

If someone has an idea of a way to do this, I am open to suggestions.

Thanks for the response

I have my own license for vb, so I can take care of that,
maybe just hire two people, one who specializes in each to collaborate on it?

Ok that is an idea.

How about this, the prize will be the entire $250.00 for all 4 items...if people wish to collaberate on this project and one does coding, the other does a logo or whatever, they can decide devide between themselves who gets what. If that "team" is chosen, they can let me know what portion each one gets and I will send them their share.

Does this sound fair?

Wow, m yheart just skipped a beat! HIGHLY expect an entry from me!

My Portfolio so Far

I can handle everything (including vBulletin, I have a active license with access to all latest versions) BUT a vector logo. I did have the service for awhile, but it is now on "freezed" status due to recent license issues. So, how much for just the design and coding? I can even do the business card design (if not wanted in vector, though I'm 100% sure you do).

Hi there, look forward to seeing something!

Actually I will not be breaking up the prize (see my post above) however, you are completely free to work with someone else to complete all 4 items. I see above that guetizo can do the logo, so maybe you two can work something out? Just a though

I like that idea. Very nice.

 

[jstep]

any particular color scheme?

 

[xtremeoff-road]

any particular color scheme?

At this time we do not have an idea, however, keeping in mind that this is for a race team, pastels and the like probably will not work.
