[REQ-LOGO] -- Online Poker Website Logo

[AstoundingDesigns]

Type of Contest: Logo Design
Winning Prize: $20 via paypal

Logo Text: BluffAway.com

End Date: 07/29/11 @ 11:59pm (Added per rules, but will close when the right design is found.
I WILL PAY MORE FOR EXCEPTIONAL DESIGNS, AND I HAVE PLENTY OF IMAGE DESIGN WORK TO FOLLOW.

Requests: BluffAway will be an online poker magazine. The logo should say BluffAway.com and can say "online poker magazine" underneath the logo, if it doesn't compromise the look of the logo. Possibly integrating two playing cards with a 7 and a 2 to represent someone "bluffing away" their money. Winning designer must send the logo in psd, jpg, and gif. This logo will be used on the website, shirts, and hats. The most creative person will win. No preference on color, surprise me.

Thank you in advance.

Matt -- I like the way you're thinking, but i dont like the text in either bluffaway.com or online poker forum.

The site, completely under construction is http://bluffaway.com/ -- i've made it semi-live so you can see the color scheme. The black bluffaway logo there now is just a placeholder, not what i'm looking for

Changed requirements: "online poker forum" should be "online poker magazine"

 

[Matt]

Here's something relatively simple and clean

I know the ".com" is not in the name, it seemed to clutter it up a little, but comments appreciated as ever

Here's a link to it in your template : http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/7922/pokertemplate.png

Take a look at these Fonts and let me know if you like any of them.

I don't like it at all to be honest. The site will be an online magazine, the logo looks like it's for a cattle ranch in texas. Your first logo was on the right track, but didnt have the wow factor.

This logo will be on shirts, hats, stickers, not just the website, so it has to be eye catching.

In your last post above, no, i dont like any of them, i dont like the cards, they look like they were copy/pasted out of google images and the text is too basic.

^^ *laughing*

Umm, 2 different Matt's OH

I'll revisit.

Just so you know there's two different people posting logos, one's just Matt, the other is Matt0216.

Also, what did you like about the original logo I came up with?

 

[AstoundingDesigns]

LOL oops.. Matt with numbers, no good. Matt without numbers, on the right track, but not enough.

The logo needs to look like a cartoon, or more modern than those above.

This logo: http://i56.tinypic.com/nn3c3q.jpg is an example of a logo that would work on stickers, marketing campaigns, and their website. This is what im looking for. (The concept, not the design.) The logo needs to look good on a sticker. I don't know any other way to put it.



I WILL PAY MORE IF THE DESIGN BLOWS ME AWAY! UP TO $100.

 

[Matt]

Ok, so you like the concept and basis of it. Just hate the "wood" type effect making it look like a ranch? :D

---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:25 PM ----------

ok, I have a concept...I was thinking of this before, but didn;t think you would like it..lol

Let's see how it goes :D

 

[AstoundingDesigns]

I need something compact enough to put on stickers and to be stiched onto hats, but it also has to be poker related and fit well on the page.

I didn't like at all, placement, text, font, size.. nothing.. Sorry .. Trying to be honest.

 

[mosesoliver]

Hi, My Entry... Feedback pls..

 

[AstoundingDesigns]

Too basic, not modern enough, wouldn't work for what i need it for.

 

[redsheep]

Hi!

Here is my concept for a little logo which you can put on stickers or hats but also on your website:

Let me know what you think of it

 

[AstoundingDesigns]

The cards look too fake, the text is too simple, and the bottom text is way too simple. Thanks for trying though.

 

[matt0216]

I created something else for you to look at. Let me know how it is.

 

[AstoundingDesigns]

Looks a little better. More modern than previous entries. Still not there. Thanks for trying. Maybe it needs something else other than cards? Not sure, but it doesnt look good enough.
