Contest - $50 USD - for DomainBeLL - Project: Pilgrim - 1

[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....

Hi yule...

thank you for your entry... I like the font and colors... not the image...
I prefer not to use anything of a religious nature...

if you'd like to try again... that would be great...

hey there koncept... thanks... seeing it in diff. colors helps me to see that it's too plain...

hi blue-rain,

thank you for your entry... that's not what I am looking for... I hate leaving feedback when something doesn't suit my needs - I am always so worried that I will hurt someone's feelings... not saying you don't do good work... just saying that isn't what I need for this project...

thank you for entering though...

I kept the first entry there for comparison.

Anything you want fixed?

hi patrick...

thanks for your entry... perhaps try something else... that's not quite what I am looking for...

I don't care for the font colors... and I don't care for the boat...

thank you though...

hi johnny.... the second one is much better than your larger version...


I was wondering - what it would look like with a pilgrim in black silhouette...
or the Mayflower ship... have any of that sort of stuff handy to try...

I'd like to see something like that... but don't discard this latest entry yet...

and could you try another font...

thank you...

Here is an idea ...

Not sure if you'll like it, but figured I would submit it anyway

Feedback appreciated :tu:

exactly the person koncept is required ????

 

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

Hope you like it. 100% Vector. Feedback appreciated. Btw, it looks like a state trooper to me. :D

 

[DomainBELL]

A NEW START !!!

hi koncepts...

thanks for another entry... I don't want to go with a pyramid and the word pilgrim it may cause my clients/customers to remember the pyramid and not the actual name/workd pilgrim since the words are similar...

lets start fresh...

I posted 3 links to some harvest type COLORS - that might give you some ideas... let's try again...

~DomainBeLL (Patricia)

=======================================================





..

My new entry..

Hi yule...

I don't want to use and religious type graphics...

do you have anything line a little pilgrim or the mayflower ship...
or some other sort of interesting little graphic... ??

thanks for your entry...

~DomainBeLL (Patricia)

============================================================







..

ANOTHER KONCEPTS !!!

hi koncepts...

this one won't work for what I have in mind... but I wanted to let you know that the maroonish sort of color you used in this one - is a color that caught my eye... maybe use that on the word pilgrim and black for the word media in the url part of the logo...

what other sorts of little symbols might you have to combine with it to make a logo ??

I hope you are having fun on this contest... I am... I love looking at your work... and that of the other designers... you are all so talented...

thank you for the entries...

Hi will7,

I am glad you decided to enter... I thought you might come by... (smile)

this first entry isn't suitable for what I need... I incuded 3 links in this thread (above) to give everyone an idea of the colors that I am hoping to see in some of your design samples...

please try again... something fresh and new - and a diff. font...

thanks again for your entries...

~DomainBeLL (Patricia)

===========================================================







..

http://www.teach-nology.com/worksheets/misc/thanks/color/2/

exactly the person koncept is required ????

koncept... I don't understand this question ??
are you asking if you should use that graphic ??
If that's what you are asking... the answer is no... it belongs to someone else
so I won't be able to use that on the logo for this project...

Is that what you were asking ??

~DomainBeLL (Patricia)

==========================================================







..

Hope you like it. 100% Vector. Feedback appreciated. Btw, it looks like a state trooper to me. :D

Patrick... that was fast... the little guy is cute... can make him thinner and smaller so I can see what that might look like ?? - and I agree he does sorta look like a state trooper instead of a pilgrim... I think the hat needs a tweak... instead of a rounded top - it needed to be a bit squar... see some of the other samples in the symbols and clipart others have use...

also -
Can you try a version without the Pilgrim guy - - - and maybe some other sort of symbol... I'd like to see what that would look like...

~DomainBeLL (Patricia)

okay - - - it'll be 7+ hours before I issue any other Feedback... I have some phone calls to make and have to go run some errands... check back tomorrow for feedback...

and I just sent ALL the designers that have so far submitted entries some NP$ - as a Thank You for your time and efforts in this Contest so far...
and I would appreciate if each of you would leave Positive TR Feedback for me... and then when I return later tonight - I'll do the same for you...

Thank You All - Keep the Contest Enteries Coming...

Thank you for the feedback. Here it is. Btw, I'll make the symbol soon. Thanks.

Symbol:

 

[yule]

New entry. Two versions. Mayflower ship...

Version 1.

Version 2.

Any sort of modification can be made to the ship. Size, color, ect.

 

[will7]

I wasn't really that much of a fan of my first entry either :lol:

Changed colour scheme and also created a new layout and icon design. Icon is aimed at representing travelling and pilgrimages involve a lot of travels :p If you have any other ideas of what you would like to see in the icon, please let me know.

Feedback appreciated
