$250 logo design contest (mainstream) - GoFuckYourself.com

Melvin the Dude · 03-04-2004, 04:15 PM

Reopening the contest from earlier. Kicked up the money a little bit.

Hi. I am in need for a logo for a mainstream company I've started. Best logo wins $200 PayPal. Second place gets $50. I will choose winners on Monday, March 8 at noon Pacific Standard Time.

The full company name is FlowNation Entertainment & MultiMedia. However, that may be kind of long for a single logo, so a simple "FlowNation" or "FlowNation Entertainment" can be okay. We are mainly an entertianment-management company that represents & consults on behalf of a handful of musicians, DJ's, female models, as well as work on developing talent.

It should be a marketable logo and delivered in a high quality format suitable for printing etc. The logo should be friendly for T Shirt, Biz Card and Website applications.

It can be multi-color/gradients, but should also look good as a simple solid color. (for when i get printed appications where I'm only using one color)

I like stars, but the logo DOESN'T have to incorporate stars. Of stars, I'm really partial to the old western-badge looking stars (kinda like the stars on this shirt http://www.gonesurfing.com/images/P...MDVLLSCMBLK.jpg )

I have seen alot of great work in previous contests and look forward to some more outstanding examples for my own contest. Thank you.

Any questions or anything I may have missed, please ask here.

This thread overrides the other thread. I made first place $200 instead of $150 (2nd place still receives $50), and extended the contest another day (to end on Monday).

Good luck everyone

katsuki · 03-04-2004, 05:49 PM

ok, that sounds like a cool deal

First you start a contest then close it. Started a new contest and tell someone who enter that they suck...you got problems.

Dudette to you. Let me guess for 200.00 dollars in a contest someone is going to try harder after you cancelled your first post. Hope you guys are friends but no logo stars for you.

because it sounds like flonase, i was thinking the same thing.

rz55 · 03-04-2004, 09:27 PM

dude are you serious?

all these samples with no copyright or sample watermark?

i guess they're all free!

secondly, only $250 for a full blown branding logo? meaning all the merch and promos you're gonna use it on! with no royalties? just $250?

i sell action sportswear logos and graphics for $350 each and thats a steal!!

corporate or branding logos as you're suggesting easily drop $1000.

some people need to go to school and quit saturating the market with noise.

only for example...

EVERYTHING HERE HAS BEEN SOLD so i wouldn't recommend trying to steal any of these, heh, i've already been paid in full so i wouldn't be the one to come after you hehe

peace

Since you like to call everyone a dude, Dude are you going to end this contest also? Try to be nice. I doubt that any designer is going to post five minutes of their work based on how you are representing yourself?but then again who knows?

Read your responses. BTW, I spent 10 minutes on my entry, and I doubt that it would win but I was trying to give you a bump on the first thread started that you closed so soon.

I don't have a problem but it seems you have one. Good luck and

for you.
