$750 Icon design contest!! - GoFuckYourself.com

12-08-2005, 12:09 PM

Hey designers, make a quick $750!

We need 9 icons created for our new webcam site, Live Video Network.

This mockup page should give you an idea of our color scheme, etc:

http://www.livevideonetwork.com/temp/splash1.jpg

The first 6 icons must be a matching set, to appear on buttons for users to communicate with performers on this page:

http://www.livevideonetwork.com/temp/profilecopy.htm

They'll appear on the 6 buttons right underneath the performer picture. We prefer that they are simple, elegant, and clear. Also, the 'chat' button should somehow stand out more than the others. Can be a different color button, or icon... up to you.

The other 3 icons will be directly underneath, in the 'My Availability' section. These don't need to be matching, but should look similar, and be in keeping with the others. These will not be clickable buttons, so can appear with or without the black squares. Also, these should have an on and off (greyed) state.

For these 3 we thought it may be nice to see a simple female silhouette for private, same silhouette rotated (like from a couple angles) for group, etc. But that's just one idea, and we'll be happy to see whatever you think will work best.

Please watermark your work- we'd like exclusive use of these icons.

Best of luck, and happy to answer any questions.

Thanks!

12-08-2005, 02:08 PM

So... this is fun...

ssp · 12-08-2005, 02:13 PM

I don't want to bash you but I would never participate in a contest by someone who registerd last month..

PinkElectric · 12-08-2005, 02:47 PM

Jonah, great contest!! Here is my entry...

who · 12-08-2005, 02:49 PM

How about you pay a designer the full $1k to make the logos? hehe

Ace_luffy · 12-08-2005, 03:01 PM

goodluck....

AdultX · 12-08-2005, 03:51 PM

I will try and get something up here in the next day or so.

Do you have an email or ICQ?

12-08-2005, 03:54 PM

Thanks for the responses!

ssp- We've hired another designer from this board for our logo design. Do you think it would help if she posted that we're a great company and always paid promptly?

Also, this is for a new webcam site, but Live Video Network is no stranger to adult media and communications?parent company, KTC has been a market leader for over ten years, designing and operating adult audiotext systems. The company boasts thousands of vanity toll-free numbers, local calling numbers in all major US cities, and employs hundreds of telephone actresses across the country.

pink electric- Nice work. To be clear... We've already designed buttons for the 'Get to know me' section, just looking for icons to appear on the buttons. I really like your icons for the 'My availability' section. I have a few comments.. should I icq you?

Who- you don't think $750 is a good prize?

here is my entry

12-09-2005, 12:23 PM

I've decided to provide feedback for designs submitted, here in the thread, instead of via icq or email so that all designers can benefit from the information.

If you aren't comfortable having your work publicly critiqued, just let me know and I'll gladly respect that. Also, you certainly aren't required to follow my suggestions, but its probably a good idea.

AdultRMX- Very good submission, thanks for your efforts!

'Get to know me' icons- Quite nice. I'm not especially crazy about the chat icon. That little 'person' animation has a very asexual feel- got anything sexier for that button? This is the most important button, because it'll link to our chat area, which is how we'll sell private and group shows. Also, I like the 'my pictures' icon a lot, but in looking closely, the person in the photograph looks like it could be a child- and that's a big no-no.

'My Availability' icons- If possible, the icon should represent the type of show offered. Using the same image for all 3 options probably won't work so well. Also, these look somewhat like buttons.. Remember the icons in this section will not be functional buttons, they are only indications to tell the user what type of performance the model is available for. Finally, although I like your decision to integrate the site color in the 'Get to know me' buttons, I don't think these colors work as well, in this section.

I hope you'll continue to develop this submission... but either way, THANKS!

Pinkish1- Very stylish submission, bravo!

'Get to know me' icons- Have a good style. Possible to 'crank up' the 'chat' icon? This is how most of our revenues will be generated.

'My Availability' icons- The 'Group performance' icon is a little misleading. This doesn't mean that the user will see/chat with a group of performers. Rather, it means a group of users will see/chat with the single performer.

Good work, would enjoy seeing the next step. Thanks a bunch!

12-09-2005, 12:27 PM

I've received a bunch of inquiries about payment/deadline.

Payment will be via ACH direct deposit for US residents, or wire transfer if the winner is from outside the US. Either way, payment will be immediate.

The deadline for this contest is next Friday, December 16th, 2005.

Good Luck!

12-12-2005, 12:31 PM

Wow!

Thanks to all of you for the excellent design work! (... and thanks for the bumps, too)

Here's feedback:

lucas131-

'Get to know me' icons:

Vvvery original work! The theme you've created is unique and eye-catching. Although I applaud your originality, I don't think this scheme fits in very well with the rest of the page/site. Can you find a middle ground?

'I'm available for' icons:

Should stay away from multiple performers in the 'group performance' icon. Remember- this icon represents a show by one performer for many users... not a show with multiple performers. Also, would like the 'private performance' and 'free chat' icons to be different.

Hope you'll continue... I like your work!

theS20-

'Get to know me' icons:

Like you said... simple and clear. Nice. I could be wrong, but it seems to me that the rest of the page has more of an upscale, elegant quality... can you inject some sophistication into your icon design?

'I'm available for' icons:

Should stay away from presenting multiple performers in the 'group performance' icon. Remember- this icon represents a show by one performer for many users... not a show with multiple performers. Also, would like the 'private performance' and 'free chat' icons to be different. The main difference is that free chat is fully (or at least partially) clothed. Private performances are fully nude. The 'form' you've created for these icons is very beautiful. Can you tweak it to better communicate the various options? I hope so!

12-12-2005, 12:34 PM

It's going to be tough to determine a winner when the time comes- so many good submissions!

Which is your favorite? And Why?

So far, my favorite is PinkElectric because the detailed icons look very high quality, are easily understood and match the scheme of the site well.

suicidemessiah · 12-12-2005, 04:39 PM

bump for a great contest
and a bump for a great contest starter

whats up sir? il submit in a few too.
