      Yeah I was going to do that, but it's our original logo from a few years ago and it's on so much material (in magazines, on our 10s of thousands of units, posters, etc) that we can't change it much at this point. Feel free to give it a little boost in the business card if you like.

          unless you provide text that binds you to picking a winner EVEN IF EVERYTHING SUCKS , ( which is unlikely ) you wont get that many responses ,

          Ianclandesigns and a few others think these contests can be used to taste test the designer pool , and keep the cash ( and probally a few designs too )

          Im done with contests sorry : P
          Nothing against you

            I've seen what designers on this board have come up with for other people and I would certainly guarantee that we'll find a winner here.

                How can I guarantee a winner if not one person responds? And why would I pay someone for something that you admit is total shit? Just put up some decent designs, we'll pay the winner. Very simple.

                  If you like my style in this contest -

                  http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/showth...0&pagenumber=2

                  I could try entering a design for this contest. If you like some specific design from all the entries in that contest it would be helpful if you could point that out. I just like participating in art/design contests.

                    I like several in that thread. I like the more simple ones, less busy. With yours in particular, I wasn't really into the cartoonish feel for my needs. Also, no girls on the cards.


                    machinegunkelly, i liked your work in that thread.

                      I paid $50 to have my card designed and it looks great. The designer gave me about 4 versions to choose from and I could make any corrections I wanted. Just find a designer you like and pay them. They'll work with you. It doesn't really take that long to design a business card.

                        Thanks for the advice. I tried that here once already with a well known person on this board. They took over a week and finally said their designer didn't end up coming up with anything good and apologized, still leaving me stuck. So I figure open it up to a everyone at the same time because we need it quickly and I know that people here produce good work.

                          Here now you can guarantee a prize...someone entered. Your provided logo wasn't the best of quality. I'd suggest doing something about that.

                          Colors on this can be changed with ease, if these aren't your cup of tea.


                          Spend you some brain.

                            Thanks for the entry, although this isn't doing it for me. I'd probably need at least 5-10 entries to guarantee I'd get one good one.

                              I opened your logo in Illustrator, FreeHand etc. but the letter D is missing. Do me a favour and save a copy with the D converted to path.

                                          I see now that someone is not going to get paid.

                                          I'm not bothering to enter this contest unless a moderator get the prize money sent to a paypal account to guarantee that someone will get paid.

                                          If you only get a couple of entries then it's because nobody wants to fuck around anymore. If you only get one entry it's because everyone thinks your prize money is shit or that you will not pay and flake like a bitch if you don't "like" the designs.

                                          I've never seen a contest where there were no acceptable entries but if people keep flaking on picking a wainner and paying then guess how many good designers are goning to give a shit about your contest...none!

                                          If your logo or business card is going to make or break your biz then your biz is shit anyway. So just pick the best one and use it and pay the winner.
                                          Good luck.

                                                I got the flu or is that a cold? i don't know but I did a traditionally oriented business card for you in two variations, sniff
                                                And I have the high rez version of course, these are just samples. Not sure what you think of the red "e"...

                                                        so far i like playgirls. It's flashy and artistic, but still professional. keep them coming! I'd like several more options before picking a winner.

Besides, most of the business cards shown here are not really suited for printing at all.... but that's just my 2cts
