I know I missed this one but I am doing my design another way: I am doing it in Illustrator, sometimes freehand and Photoshop, high rez then save a small and low rez file for the web. Must be the dtp experience.

I like this one - very quaint. Reminds me of the Broken Sword games.

Almighty yours is sweet but looks a bit fuzzy.

Galleryseek that last one looks like "District Porn" rather than "Porn District" - I know there's a design factor involved but you also have to design for stupid people to easily grasp and remember.

Alien I give credit when it's due - sweet work shown here. Not sure it would degrade to t-shirt design well, though. (So many colors and blending.)

The ones that are really clean, like the original green license plate, are best if you're planning on using it with different mediums.

Folks, think of things like Tide, Apple, even M$'s flying windows or butterfly (MSN) logos.
Clean and simple... less filters, more emphasis on bold, bright, crisp and instant visual memorization.

The real test of a good designer is one that can make an eye-catching, impact design without using any filters and special effects. (Not that I can make one, but I sure can recognize it when I see it!)

im going to disagree with you to a certain extent... although i do agree that a logo should be easily readable, i don't think it should ALWAYS be "Simple" as in your standard "PORNDISTRICT" font with a logo to the left or above it...

that is becoming so ordinary and overused that it is no longer unique... which is why i busted out my first logo design... some of you say the globe thing is from 96' lol, well i've been on computers since 97 or so and i don't remember seeing any logos like that, i certainly don't see any today.. and maybe its ..better.. that it has an oldschool feel to it? :)

Seriously, everyone needs to calm down. As soon as a contest ends people are alway saying "what the fuck, who won, where is the person who started the contest, are they stealing them??". We can't possibly pick the winner instantly. It will take some time to pick from all these entries plus it's new year's eve/new year's day.

We will announce the winner soon, just calm down and sit tight.

GoGobar,
I did not enter the contest for lack of skills, I just enjoyed all the GREAT work that was sent; however a lot of people spent time and effort on your contest. (I congratulated you on it on the first page)

You bought a day or two of peace from the the board from your nick.
YOU set the dead line as of 12-31-03, (not me) six days later, not one post was made by you on request from the posters for even an update.

Hey I understand $500 is a lot of money for some, and that is why they don't want to piss you off by writing what I am.

It was a good contest at the start. As of today it sucks. (and I don't care if you are in Vagas or not)
:(

The oldschool feel cannot be wrong, I just call it classy :)

i'm sure you've got plenty going on...

we're not going anywhere

peace

don't get it. Yours is 100 times better, just take those xxx :winkwink:

About that logo some details:
1) Is that a logo? If so, I've never seen a logo in my entire life
2) Blurry fonts, undistinguishable descriptions. Last time I checked, the word "logo" was meant as a commercial design including a trademarked word which acts as part of the design piece . When the words are blurry, all the "logo" concept is thrown by the window.
3) on the design part, it's just that warp effect listed on almost every design tutorial and an outlined landscape using the find edges tool

It's nothing against Almighty, most of the "logos" here shows that most so called designers don't have a clue about design. Fuck, now I realize I know more about design than most designers! :(

infectd 01-08-2004 05:45 PM

Maybe I should clarify .

Logo , branding and plain jane shit aside .

If mine does that better , then good .
I just really found almighties designs to be very nice , captured a style I like , I am judgine on design and appearance . Not for the company , I dont have a clue what gogobar wants .

I also think that humans adapt , and we are becoming more and more used to fancy graphics used to make logos .

if you ask me a few squares and maybe a line and some system font isnt a logo either . Boring as fuck

Yes . my logo can be printed on ANYthing . any colours . any size . I took that into consideration when I did it .

but we are forgetting this is for porndistrict .
a webmaster resource sites .

These design contests are to also give the designer a chance to show off what they want .

I came into this design contest knowing full well that I usually use all sorts of layer styles and effects . so I decided to leave that at home . Show people that I can infact ( maybe ) do a " corporate logo " and it seems it came across as I had intended .

His logo shows his talent . and whether he wins or not at the end of the day . many people have seen his talent . Thats what matters .

$5 submissions 01-08-2004 06:23 PM

Good luck to the Contestants! I hope Tootie wins!

Hey people, I never said he was not going to pay! It sucks that I am on your side to get at least some finalist, that's all.
How hard could it be to post a simple update.
I thought it was good contest (one of the best i've seen)

theS2O 01-09-2004 08:59 AM

wheow... tough to make a decision on these cool submissions...
i'm still hoping though that i win... :winkwink:

if not... :drinkup cheers to the lucky one!

Most of the adult industry hasn't a clue.
Thats why adult design is so much diffrent then mainstream and design cultre.

oh, so the winners are not announced yet? maaan....

galleryseek 01-09-2004 01:11 PM

we want a winner!

almighty 01-09-2004 05:04 PM

dragonsales.com is some simple non adult design it is really hard to make someting for a site you can not see im glad to see compliments and well the ones who dont like it sorry bout tha but it isnt for you its for gogo to decide its easy to critisize others work but until you can show something better ya may wanna take a few steps backwards and relax as to priniting i made some logos that are printable as well but again as said by others they asked for a logo for a website not a tshirt or bilboard

GoGoBar 01-09-2004 05:52 PM

Hey everyone. We are still all in vegas. The connection here is absolutely horrible (anyone out here at the Venetian will confirm that). It took me literally 5 minutes to get from the front page of GFY to this thread to the post reply page.

We are back tomorrow (the 10th of Jan) and will pick winners as one of the first things we do when we get back. It's just simply impossible to load/look through all the logos while we're out here.

Our winner. Text will need to change some tho.

Please contact me on icq, 5596373 or aim, JohnA1078

There were lots of great looking designs but in the end a logo needs to be simple, brandable and useable on tshirts, business cards, etc.

We'll pick the worst one shortly.
