$500 mainstream logo competition - GoFuckYourself.com

raceman · 10-29-2007, 03:24 AM

Hi to all my favourite designers, hope you're all well. I need your creative input.

$500 first prize to design a logo for a new mainstream website. The site is aimed at the public in general so pretty much a free hand in this one

"YOU WONT FORGET" <- I see the whole name as against "YWF".

The logo will be used on the site, and on all marketing collateral.

Good luck

Excellent

Can you give a little background on the site? I think I can guess what it's purpose will be but I may be way off.

Also, what's the deadline for the contest?

Thanks

Deej · 10-29-2007, 03:28 AM

When does this end? when you find what you like? gather and pick?

also, any more info on the meaning of the term or site?

some sort of motif?

Its am internet to cellphone deal, and, your right in your assumption of what the concept is all about, its really in the name "You Wont Forget"

I'm in no rush for this one, so it can roll for a while, I know there are some great designers on here, would be nice to get some input from each.

race -

these contests usually all go the same way. The quality stuff doesn't come out until close to the deadline. Since there isn't one in this case, I'm not sure how this will shake out.

and the question is, first deadline? ;) wish luck and good inspiration to all designers!

Cyber Fucker · 10-29-2007, 04:50 PM

mmmm.. $500 is nice amount, I will give a shot!

raceman · 10-29-2007, 08:25 PM

OK then, lets say 10 days from today, November 9th will be the close date.

I know you guys can do it, and the winner will get some other work as an extra incentive.

interesting take, although I do see it horizontal as against vertical, would look better on the website

Just a thought

no man, im sure everyone is searching for best idea etc and will be posting designs closer to the deadline, as always in those contests ;) i will try my best for sure too, i hope i will have time for that ;) give it a time, great designs to come for sure!

Morbid · 10-31-2007, 12:15 PM

I agree with TeenCat.
I've been working on some designs, but don't want to just throw something together.
Any other designers out here will be doing the same, and are going to take their time to do the best they can. It's not like it's a $20 competition where no one cares if they do or don't win, lol.

Just be patient

I hear you, never quite thought of it like that, LOL a mad post right towards the end makes heaps of sense. Last comps i ran you could see the influences as the designs flew into the thread, norty norty, copying, to a degree.

cheers all

You still here Oracle, lol man they will have to pry you fingers off the GFY keyboard to burry you. Hope your well buddy.

I did actually think I had the right guy to do the job in the first place, and, one that is very wel known on this board, he just wasted 3 months of my time and fed me "prime" bullshit...... Oh well, life moves on
