[DomainBELL]

Prize will be $50. - USD paid via PayPal

- - - I might also select a 2nd place winner for a prize of $25. USD - paid via PayPal
(see terms below)

there will be at least 5 other contests coming very soon.... so if this one doesn't suit you or you don't have time to enter this one... be sure to check back - or PM me for information on future contests - with links to your portfolio or online samples...


Contest
Starts: Sunday 7-30-06
runs 8 days...
Ends: Monday August 7th, 2006

Feedback will be left ONCE per day - in the THREAD - for ALL the entires for that day...


The designs that you submit must be your own work, unique and exclusive.

Entries must be watermarked...

Entries must be posted within the CONTEST THREAD

I reserve the right to NOT pick a winner IF:
there are no designs that I like enough to use...
I am sure that enough designers that do GREAT work will enter - so there should not be a problem picking a winner... in the event there are no suitable designs within the contest period - I reserve the right to extend the contest dates... I want to pick a winner... I want there to be a winner... I want a design I like enough to actually USE... (smile)

In the event there isn't a design I like enough to use - I will send each person that entered designs 200 NP$ as a thank you for trying...

Two winners might be chose - and if so - that 2nd place winner will receive $25. USD
- - - just depends on the entries...

NOTE: the 2nd place winner is not obligated to turn their design over to me for the second place price of $25. USD - if they choose not to for whatever reason - an alternate 2nd place winner may or may not be selected...



What I am looking for:
I am looking for somehting to use as a brandable logo for :

P-i-l-g-r-i-m-M-e-d-i-a.c-o-m
(without all the hyphens)

and

P-i-l-g-r-i-m--M-e-d-i-a.c-o-m
(the version with one hypen between the two words)


I'd like to see some harvest related colors used ...
and possibly something pilgrim theme related

NOT exclusively requiring these colors or a pilgrim in design - I would like to see what that might look like though...

However the winning design could very well be on not even in harvest colors... nor having a pilgrim in the design...

I need the end product to be in the following formats:
Vector .jpg .gif

You may enter even if you don't design in Vector... and you need to state in your post with your entry what formats you are able to provide the finished product in...

Winner will be paid via PayPal - BEFORE the designs are turned over to me in the finished un-watermarked format...

However - everything you post in the contest - online - MUST be watermarked... and - if I should request it - the winning designs may be required (by me) to be removed from the contest thread - after the contest ends...

If you are chosen as one of the Category Winners, I receive FULL Rights to the design(s) – the unique and exclusive rights - and you can NEVER display or sell them again. You may not mention the URL or Domain Name in any future manner that would be picked up by a search engine or any other media... I want my privacy protected...

The designs that you submit must be your own work, unique and exclusive.

Consider your entry into this contest as your agreement to all the terms above...

Good Luck to Everyone...


I look forward to working with you on future projects...

Ready... Set... GO !!!!!

- - - note there was a slight editing - for appearnce preferences done on this post - PRIOR to any ENTRIES....






- - - - UPDATED: 8-3-06
I have decided against using any graphics depicting pilgrims...
no corn... no pilgrims... nothing pilgrim related...

and further on into the thread on page 3 - - - there are some links I included to samples of colors and fonts and things I've seen that caught my eye - so you can get more of an idea of what I am looking for....

I also sent some NP$ to every designer that jumped on board early on pages 1 and 2...

and at the end of the contest - after I pick a winner --- any NEW designers that enter at two or more designs - from page 3 on - will be getting a special treat - as a thank you from me at the end...

show me your talent... and have FUN....

Here's my first entry. 100% Vector. Feedback appreciated.

thanks for entering...
I see you got an early start...

I need something more LOGO-ish as opposed to a little picture scene...

perhaps also try colors or peach / orange / brown / harvest sorts of colors
on the next fresh new design...

you may try again if you'd like...

thanks for the entry...

try another image... something smaller... and I don't like the colors used in the font at all... try some shades of brown / orange... and perhaps more than one font choice...

it would be nice to see a little pilgrim in one - if possible to see what that might look like...

feel free to try again... if you'd like... thank you...

I prefer a logo where none of the lettering is obscured...
and more colorful...

feel free to try again with something fresh...

So the winner would not be allowed to put this logo in their portfolio?
Just want to be clear on that.

Are we allowed to use images that have already been created?

Not to bash, but the image of the pilgrim in Sinfully Wicked's work shows up on Google Images...

Thanks

Static - hi there... I don't think I've ever gotten to talk to you before...

Images need to be copyright free if used...

Will you be designing something to enter into the contest ??

~DomainBeLL (Patricia)

 

[Static]

Yes. I'm just drawing a few things on my new tablet right now, trying to come up with a few ideas.

hi yule...

thank you for your entry...

Did you draw the pilgrim ?? You must have one of those fancy drawing pens... The drawing is nice... but now that I see a nice pilgrim - I guess
that isn't what I really need... Thnaks for showing it to me though to help
me make my decision to go in another direction...

This isn't quite what I am looking for... although you do good work...


I like the font and colors...

Try something without the pilgrim... Something fresh...

thank you very much for sharing your talent with me...

Hi lee...

Thanks for entering the contest...

You do nice work... it's not quite what I am looking for ...

I do hope that you will enter again... with something different...

totally different...

thank you though... (smile)

Hi koncepts,

Thank you for entering the contest - and for supplying 3 diff. choices...

of the three - the middle one I like better than the other two you entered...

I hadn't thought of that sort of concept for my logo... and still not quite sure if that's the direction I want to go... it did however catch my eye... but I'd prefer other color choices... could you do number 2 in a few other color choices... let's see how that would look...

In one continuous line with the entire domain name - including the .com part please...


thank you...

~DomainBeLL (Patricia)

[yule]

Thank-you for your feedback.
Yes, I did draw it, using the Pen Tool in Photoshop, took me forever haha.
Glad that I helped you...
I'll sleep on it and see if I come up with a fresh idea for you tomorrow.

Hi Johnny,

Thanks for entering the contest...

Your design is interesting... with the pilgrim hat and all...
I'd like to see what it would look like with a smaller hat...
and the domain name all in one contiuous line including the .com part...

More color would be nice... let's see what it would look like with these changes... if you feel like trying again...

thank you...

Smiling at you... I don't mind at all if you use your Pilgrim Drawing without my domain name on it - for your portfolio... thank you for the effort put into your first pilgrim drawing... I've heard those Pen Tools can be lots of fun... if I could live 2 lives at the same time - in one of them I would be a designer... I love trying new things... as I am sure you do as well...

If you decide not to reEnter this Project - Pilgrim -1 contest... I do hope that you will keep an eye out for my other contests... coming in the very very near future...

thank you again for your entry...
