Lol funny you should say that - right as i submitted i had the same idea poppin' into my head - but i'm hoping is just normal GFY paranoia :disgust

BlueWire 01-11-2005 07:13 AM

Nope, not how i opperate. My favorite design at this point is my designer's but I'm hoping someone come up with something more innovative....Corporate, so its simple...that last one was really good but not something i want to give to VC's on a biz card......So far my designer's work fits the bill the best ....look at what he has done if you want to know the recipe for impressing me......I hope someone on here can top that design

It wasnt bad...just wasnt a corporate logo style...looks kinda thrown together....you're in 4th place with that design right now but its a good start....


...and for all of you that thought i would just pick my designer....WRONG....someone else has moved in the lead who sent to me via email.....Brad if u see this post, go ahead and post the logo you made...

...still two days left and plently of impressing left to be done i hope....

I think Platinum pimps logo is at least 10 times nicer than what your guy came up with :2 cents:

I dont feeling like playing this time 'round sorry no entry from me .

PP's entries usually impress the hell out of me...not this time however.....and after being at this for a couple months now...i'm starting to notice that they all kinda look the same....Regaurdless i still think his work kicks ass...

I like brad's at this point, but a part of me is still torn, i do really like Jake (my designer's) effort...but i'm leaning toards brad right now....the rest arent really useable for this purpose

mind 01-13-2005 03:30 PM

Ok here is a entry from me - not that it matters much, since you obviously have a different oppinion about logo design. I'm gonna for once say my oppinion about someone elses work and honestly.. that logo brad made is bad in soo many ways i dont know where to start.

1) The B looks like an 8, that had a carcrash
2) The circle isn't round - got flaws at the right end (typical photoshop error)
3) The "INC" would be impossible to see if you scaled the logo down
4) The Logo in its current state isn't scalable at all and useless for printing
5) Corp. look? imho not even close


Anyways here it is: http://codepushers.com/portfolio/alb...ewire3%7E0.jpg

These are very nice...much better.....The more i look at brads, the more flaws i find...i still like it though....maybe if he cleaned it up...And you my friend are oficially in the running......honestly i feel about equal about this logo, brad's , and my in-house one at this point....might have to consult the board to settle this one :)

you need a unique logo. Something people will remember. So not the standard boring logo's what already are 1000's of at those kinda companies. Im the cure! Here is my attempt. This is something people will remember!

haha very funny....if you noticed the poll yesterday....our design team's attempt won running away.....For your corporate logo (not just your design/development department) .......Its not so much about quality...but about uniqueness....And right now there are two finalists in my mind , and one of which is our design team's...and the board agreed with that sediment....So i look at this as just a further showing of how our logo's are some of the best on the board

galleryseek 01-16-2005 08:41 AM

so who won?

His design team? :1orglaugh
perhaps only 1 outsoucing slave working for him! :1orglaugh
Bluewire, you're pretty drama :1orglaugh

BlueWire 01-16-2005 11:21 AM

Heh...well, looks like this was one fucking huge mistake that blue up in my face. To be clear, my team consists of 2 designers, and 2 programmers (soon to be 3) based out of Seattle, Washington. For those that live in Seattle, our offices are in the North end of Ballard up near the high school. I invite you to come check us out if you dont belive that...lol


...Anyways, I took 3 things into consideration of choosing the winner of this contest....I have listed them in the order of importance:

1) My own personal opinion
2) GFY Member's opinion's http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showthread.php?t=416448
(this poll didn't have the new entries however, but amongst the logos that had been made, my lead designer's entry clearly wong based off that poll
3) My friends in the businesses opinions


I'm sure i'll take a lot of heat, but Jake's design won in all three of these categories. So the winner entry is:

http://www.adfrontier.com/fresh/bluewire/inc/

I think a lot of people (despite the poll results) will think that I was bias and unfair. I think it is clear that the people's choice in the 2nd place position was Platinum Pimp's logo set....

PP, I won't be using your logo set, i dont want any rights or copies or anything ...just to be clear. But if you leave your paypal or epassporte I will make sure a nice 2nd place prize of $50 gets you way for you efforts.

mind 01-16-2005 12:22 PM

well this is a huge surprise! who would have guessed after the poll thread with comments like:
Quote:

"I thought the submissions were pretty lame myself" and "i'm starting to finally get tired of how all of his stuff kinda has the same style"
Quote:

"Well, i'm pretty happy with #1...and if you guys think #1 is weak (which i dont) ...then what do you call the rest of that shit?"
Biased? i don't know - but posting a bs poll without all the entries in - and trashing pretty much everybody who took time to make entries for your contest is so fucking low. - Bad mojo man


Enough said - may your company end like your prices (sig)

The poll had all logos that had a chance. I did mess up on two of the links and replied right away with correct links. I don't think it messed up the results but if it did I appologize. It didnt have the most brand new entries (Thats because they weren't submitted yet)

I don't feel like i trashed people. I felt like a lot of other people that the results of this contest were significantly sub-par. I didn't mean to single anyone out. Again, if I did , I appologize

And about Platinum Pimp's entry. 1st off, i'd like to appologize because I did come off sounding to condescending....HOWEVER, I think you should post the next line in that quote of mine because I went on to say that Platinum Pimp is still the best in the business! I would just like to see him branch out slightly



....Being new in this arena, I don't want to offend anyone and I think if you talk to anyone I've done business with or who I have any other type of business relationship with, I try VERY hard to be fair, proffessional, and curtious and I do so. In the spirit of GFY i got a litttle sucked into my GFY persona versus my real-life/business persona and so if anyone's feeling were hurt by my critisisms of the logo works I appologize. Not trying to get on anyone's shit list.....

However, there are a couple of you that showed YOUR OWN true colors in your response to this thread, I'm glad I got to see this for future reference and nothing more. Good luck to all....

Platinum, hit me with a paypal so I can give you your reward....I think i'm being more than fair on that and to be trashed like i am by pro design labs I think is just uncalled for. I hate to say it...but I've had posts thinking that the one i chose was the best, and plat. pimp's was the best....the poll clearly showed that 90% of people thought either our's was the best or Plat pimps.....Last I checked pro labs efforts didn't recieve a ton of votes or comments? However, I want to tell you...I actually thought they were very good quality of work.....I just don't think they kept the directions in mind....thats just not what i would want a business card personally...just a little too busy for my liking....No need to wish people bad and stuff though...thats just bad karma.

Platinum Pimp, please respond with you paypal or epassporte....any other posts besides that is just someone trying to play an ego game and this is my final post in the thread....

Platinum...I decided that my designer (jake)'s logo was the best for what is needed. The members of GFY backed that up in the poll i had posted.....

...But, i can't help but feel like i should give someone besides my in-house guys a prize because i want to be fair in all this. So I am going to send you a $50 prize for your efforts as a 2nd place prize...
