$30.00 Logo Contest

[yallways]

$30.00 Logo Contest - still need a winning entry!!

We need a logo for www.yallways.com. Please reveiw the site to find out more about us and our style before creating one. The logo should be able to look sharp in 250X54 pixels and match the background color [#275179]. The two primary colors for the logo should be #FF6B00, White and Black but remember that the blue [#275179] is going to match with the background. You are allowed to include any other color instead that you find more attractive but the orange is a must and the background is a must.

We will pay $30 to the best logo paid via paypal or money order. This contest is good for only one week from date of this post where the winner will be announced here and contacted via email if preferred.

Be sure the name {Yallways} or {Yallways.com} is in the logo
Specializing in Webmaster Tools and resources amongst other things.

OPTIONAL: could add the slogan 'Where The Magic Begins'. Bonus points for this if you can fit it in

Thanks and good luck!

WINNER WILL ALSO BE ANNOUNCED IN OUR MESSAGE CENTER AVAILABLE ONLY IN THE YALLWAYS TOOLBAR... this is mentioned incase the winner is afraid the notification will not reach him due to spam boxes and such. the message box will tell you if you have a message on the toolbar. This is optional. but the winner will definately have to repond to us in order to receive payment so the toolbar is your best (but not only) option.

FOLLOW UP: Please note that any logo must have some kind of image or abstract image associate with the name. If the logo were simply text alone then I wouldnt need help with this. I have been using photoshop and paintshop pro for years and could manage all that. I just need something unique and blended with an image that will make me stand out from the rest. A logo with text only will be rejected.

Wrong Background.

here's my first attempt....what do you think?

For future reference, I do not want the stripes in the background. Will be removing those in the final look of the site. just the blue background that I referred to in my origional post.

Is there any story behind the actual name "yallways"? Does it mean something? That might help me come up with an idea.
Thanks

The Name ...

Is there any story behind the actual name "yallways"? Does it mean something? That might help me come up with an idea.
Thanks

Yallways: I wanted a name that symbolized the southern style and yet remained freindly. So Yallways is created to sound southern and yet subconsciously refer to the name "Yahweh" which is another name for God. Kinda strange I know. But now you know the rest of the story. [and to be honest this is the first time I've ever told anyone because Im not sure they would really understand the concept. we dont refer to ourselves as God of course. Just a freindly concept. thats why we kept the spelling way off.]

Very Nice but to me the design screams "SPORTS!" cause the logo kinda looks like a Basketball.

here's another version...

can i get some feedback on what i need to change? Thanks in advance

 

[yallways]

Professional look

can i get some feedback on what i need to change? Thanks in advance

would prefer a more professional look rather than a look that says 'games or fun' The text should be more solid rather than jiggly and also would prefer more of a logo design associated with the text. Just text alone can be done by ourselves. we want a design blended with it. Something origional.

Feed back is cool

 

[buttertrooper]

"Where's the joystick?" Looks kinda like an atari console game. sorry, I couldnt help it. Had to be said.

 

[Stronge]

Fair enough, alot of people like the pixelated effect, ill draft another :P

[yallways]

odd but true

Here's my first try. Feedback appreciated. By the way people, WATERMARK YOUR DESIGNS. Thanks.

Thats a nice one but I have to say oddly enough, Its identicle to one that I have used in the Past. Im looking for [not only a goot text design] but an image within the logo as well. wether its an actual image or abstract image, either way. something to tell me apart from the others.

Next entry

The font is much better.

 

[Stronge]

Ok Im thinking the logo on the left doesnt do much, ill have another wiz at that

*EDIT*

Didnt seem to come up with much, that will be my final entry for the contest

 

[P|A|T|R|I|C|K]

Ok, thanks for the feedback. Expect another entry from me soon.

Here's another try. Feedback appreciated.
