REQ-LOGO $40.00 LOGO DESIGN (simple) *just raised the prize!!*

[theshoejunkie]

First of all, im computer illiterate. So forgive me in advance.

Type of Contest : LOGO Design
Prize : $40.00
Contest End Date & Time : 10.00PM CST Oct. 27th or sooner if I see something that fits.

Size Requirements : I dont know what the technical numbers mean but I need it large enough where I can have it printed on a 5 foot wide banner for a festival im in this weekend.
And also in a format where i can have business cards made.

Color Requirements :
I was thinking black text with hot pink around it???

The background MUST be white and ideally the use of pink and black on the logo, however, I am open to other color formats.

General Requirements :

The script i want to use is called sweetheart script (((or there is another one that a user named RIDHO used when he created a logo design (and won) for a company called Naughty Desires but im not sure what the font is called))).

anyway. the name of my store is kiki la'rue. all lower case - with the apostrophe

there will be clothing. jewelry, household decor, candles, personalized items. anything a girl could want. i have no idea what i want to logo to look like. something bright. girly and pretty. and expensive looking. my store will eventually be in a very affluent part of dfw. (at least the women there think so!!)

i like crowns. not princess crowns but ones like this (but more girly and less cartoonish):

I also love the Fleur de lis.

My store will be a lot like www.thebluedoorboutique.com and i love their logo. but i think mine needs the crown or fleur de lis somewhere on it.

also, id like to use the winning designer for other images i will need for my website as well. im in the early stages of the web design and will be posting a contest for the website if this goes well. the winner here will get the first shot at the website and/or other images.

im open to all suggestions!!

Thanks!
Becka

Hi,

 

[Matt]

theshoejunkie,

I have to confess I shall not be entering, as I don;t believe I could create an image large enough and to the right print specs that are likely to be required.

I would strongly suggest you speak to the Printers, and ask them EXACTLY what kind of file format, type, and size, that you will require to get it printed cleanly and well on the banner.

I would also advise, depending on the quality you want the image size is going to be HUGE! and certainly not emailable. It would need to be hosted as I suspect it would be in the 10-100meg region?

Just my 2cents to make sure you get what you want.

Hi Matt,

You can design using Illustrator, Corel Draw or any vector software. Design at your normal size and save it as an EPS. The printers will use the EPS to scale to any size without loss of quality. So, your design at 200x200 can be scaled to billboard size and will still look great!

Hope that helps!

Always good to know VA

good luck everyone

 

[theshoejunkie]

can someone tell me how to change the title to $30 and not $25? Also, RIDHO - I dont think I like how Larue looks in that font after all.

Can you redo in Sweetheart script?

I like Virgin Arts so far.

 

[Eric Lyon]

Title updated to $30.00 at your request theshoejunkie.

Note: As already mentioned, Be sure that the design files you get from the designers are 100% pure points / paths vector so that they can be scaled up to any size without quality loss by the print company.

And i think i would like the hot pink to be closer around the letters. as in, maybe highlighting them. I need to be able to print this logo everywhere. Thanks!

i def like the pink better. but im not in love with the design at all (even though you are amazingly talented).

i want some flourishes on it. like these: http://www.google.com/search?q=flou...m=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&biw=1016&bih=510

it needs to look expensive looking. very elegant. and no wave of color.

ok im trying to love this one (the black and pink one) so i can end this contest and move on.

can you try the following fonts:

henparty
daiquiri
valentine
sadey ann

and add some space between the fleur and the words

 

[VirginArt]

Do you mean this one?

 

[theshoejunkie]

A couple more revisions!

this is the consensus fave among my girlfriends but i dont like the font at all. and i think it looks too busy. can you change the font first?

 

[VirginArt]

With Daiquiri font...and a little less busy!
