Mascot (logo) required critter[host]$25+

We need a catchy but within the corporate theme mascot.
Also the text: critter[host].com - "without the brackets"

Size: Large - Small - (see image below)

Color: See attached header and the rest of the site is predominantly blue.

Style: Corporate - you can use effects but don't go crazy :)

Format: Vector - I will need to resize.

Company Info: Provides Hosting services

Contest ends: June 26 2007 8:00 PM (or sooner)

Payment type: Paypal

Possible Concepts:


(a) Some sort of critter/character combined with a server, computer
mouse, monitor?

(b) Must be serious but friendly and corporate?

(c) Any ideas you may have are definitely welcome.

I can assure you the following three commitments will happen.
1) choosing a winner
2) paying the winner
3) providing constructive feedback

Please DO NOT under any circumstances copy another designers concept.
The only time you can use the same idea is when it is listed in the brief (see above possible concepts)

Please no PMs of designs or pitches...this is a contest!

All copyrights must be transferred with design.

Winner will be paid $25.00 via Paypal. I will also award 200NP to the runnerup and 100NP to the third place finisher.
I know you spend considerable time on these and this is some consolation.
Winning design will also be displayed on web site I am developing for
contest assistant/consultant service (pending clients approval).

Design Contest Format: I will choose a shortlist of 5 and then choose the top three from them.
I will also be straight up with feedback IE: not what we are looking for
thank you, this means wrong direction don't waste your time!

I reserve the right to end the contest early and if required extend the contest 48 hours.

not sure if a roach is the way you wanna go, but it's a blue shiny roach so maybe that makes him special. let me know what you think.

not bad pigbait75 can you try seperating the image and the text as I have in the top sample image of the brief. Make the roach a little larger and bring the text down to say 18 to 20 pt and place it on the right side.
Nice work!

18-20 point size would be too small to read this is 60 if you want it smaller or the bug bigger let me know thanks.

thx pigbait75 looks pretty good. and your right regarding the text size. I will confer with the client. In the meantime if you can play with the idea of somehow making the roach more of a mascot and adding a computer/server element would be great. Also let me know if a screenshot of the full site would assist you as well.
thx

DotSauce - Interesting idea although we are thinking along the lines of a mascot/character type image. The location of the text is rather unique as well. will confer with client
nice work!

borzoid - thx for your entry. Please see the top image in the brief the circle around the text "mascot goes here" indicates the size of mascot/character we are looking for. Also we would like to see some effects with the font.
nice work!

Quick Note:
Below is a screenshot of full site for your reference. Notice the stock photo of lady on laptop, the size of the critter/mascot/character should be same. Also please keep in mind that we would like to see a mascot/character type critter somehow intergrated with a computer element.
thx for the entries so far.

Thanks for the feedback. Here are the revisions: made the spider larger and added effects to both the spider and the text.

Hello abu that's a pretty good observation.
A friendly looking raccoon or possum with some sort of computer element might just be a good mascot for a hosting co.
We'd love to see an entry from you :)

fico - Very nice work! Love the text...Will confer with client. The image looks good but we are leaning more towards some sort of mascot/character small animal type critter as opposed to a bug. We would love to see a revision. thx

DotSauce - thx for your entry. looking more for a single mascot image. A small animal, critter. Think in terms of a mascot representing critter(host).com. Maybe something like a critter sitting at a laptop. If you look at the screenshot of the layout you will see a stock photo depicting a lady sitting at a laptop, something like that might be a good concept with a critter instead of the lady..just a thought :)
thx for your effort!
