Need a logo for Yumm.com. The site is mostly about cooking and recipes, but also about fitness, health and travel. Payment is via paypal and immediate.

I am offering so much because I would like a really great logo. There is no tagline, I just want a logo of 'Yumm.com'

Show me what you got!

well nice domain you've got over there :)

here is a small try to make the Y a bit yummy and lovely
http://www.imagger.com/thumbs/410154_yumm.jpg (http://www.imagger.com/view/410154_yumm.jpg.html)

either the website colors will need to be modified or the logo, but I think red is more catchy rather than orange

zeropaid
Apr 30th 2009, 2:12 pm
@Zeriz cool concept, but too plain and I don't need the tagline.

@Nang-Ex great entry! love the colors and design but looks a little too much like applebees?

@kostas13 first entry: cool concept, just hard to see the characters and it seems kind of random.. need something cleaner

@jackieh1791 great entry! almost too much red I would throw some other colors in there but I like it. Maybe a strawberry instead of a cherry? I like the concept but the cherry seems kind of lonely..

@kostas13 second entry: the font is kinda plain and again it seems kind of random with the character and the semi-atomic symbol

@gamelord forgive me for being honest but not into it. font is super plain and the kids face seems almost creepy... thanks though.

@onlyfights cool, just plain and the left part of the y is kind of... limp.

@deraya i like how you put the Y and the m together, cool. the big logo seems kind of too simple, but I like this entry too.

@xluciusx I like the Y and the .com part but it seems like you rushed everything in between that. nice entry but not quite what we are looking for.

@debitcredit WOAH on the textures and colors. cool shapes but seems a bit much

@jokomamamita: I like the heart shaped strawberry, but the rest of the logo seems a bit.. halloweenish?

@itrungs: i like this style logo we have gotten a couple of them. the .com seems a little lost in yours, but the concept is good.

@galpgaree2 my favorite of yours (they are all pretty good) is #2.. I like the painted style of the images to the left, maybe carry the brushstrokes concept through the text?

@MantisArt nice, professional looking logo. The yellow/green color scheme is a little too mello yello for me, and the banana maybe too chiquita, but great overall effort I would love to see a second entry from you

@rawasia: i like the cookie and the smile, the text seems a little plain

@mrEdesign wow I REALLY like this one, early front runner for sure. the colors are great and it just really pops visually. the little vector fruits and leaf are cool, but the leaf seems odd out there by the Y. What if there was a fresh bunch of fruit all the way across the logo from the Y to the end of the last m, just taking up that white space created by the capital Y? love what you did with the .com too.

@Consvald like the spoon, but needs to be a little tighter

@integrator again a good concept but just a little too simple

@RaduTRIFAN we have gotten a couple submissions in this style and while I like it, none of them are really there. It's a clean logo but the text is just too simple

@ludwig cool, need to see it a lil bigger but from what I can see maybe too monochrome with the red and the Y I am not in love with.

Wow that was a lot of feedback THANK ALL YOU GUYS for taking the time to enter and I look forward to some really good entries.

would you consider more colorful logo rather than monotone?

Apr 30th 2009, 2:18 pm
Oh yeah its much better in the bigger size. Nice work! I think the red is a bit much, this would be like a specialty logo to use on christmas or valentine's day :) Put some color in there!

You must be a 3D designer, like C4d or Maya or 3dsmax or blender... Right?

The work is truly fantastic quality, it's just a shame that none of the images are his own work, but in fact come from other artists in the Shutterstock collections.

The 3D fruit characters were created by and are the copyright of Julien Tromeur. Below are some examples:

http://69.90.174.252/photos/display_pic_with_logo/66941/66941,1196678446,2.jpg

http://69.90.174.251/photos/display_pic_with_logo/66941/66941,1194847240,2.jpg

You can find his 3D fruit portfolio here: Julien Tromeur - 3D Fruit Portfolio (http://www.shutterstock.com/s/3d%2Bfruit/search-p1.html?lang=en&search_cat=&search_group=illustrations&anyorall=all&color=&searchtermx=&orient=all&photographer_name=Julien%20Tromeur%20)

The leaf circle is an amalgamation (several different aspects from many designs) of the works of Julien Grondin. Below are a couple of these aspects:

The outer circle
http://69.90.174.246/photos/display_pic_with_logo/118804/118804,1227723155,2.jpg

The leaves with water drops (Bottom left leaf is the one used for both leaves in image submission)
http://69.90.174.252/photos/display_pic_with_logo/118804/118804,1231338440,2.jpg

I had bought them images which then i have all rights to use that image, it is something called royalty free .... meaning you buy it and use it .....

you even get premade logo's so i don't know what you are talking about.

Believe me, it´s nothing against you in particular, but: using stock images as the main part of a logo design is the equivalent to selling someone his own ass. And not telling right away that you use a stranger´s work as your own doesn´t make it any better.

If you have read the Licensing Terms in Shutterstock you would see the terms and conditions which apply to your image:

In the "Part II Restrictions" section of the terms, you will find that restriction no. 15 states:

You may not "Use any Image (in whole or in part) as a trademark, service mark, logo, or other indication of origin, or as part thereof , or to otherwise endorse or imply the endorsement of any goods and/or services."

And that no 16 states:

You may not "Use or display an Image in such a manner that gives the impression that the Image was created by you or a person other than the copyright holder of that Image."

The licensing terms can be found here (http://www.shutterstock.com/licensing.mhtml) for your info.

Also, I am not giving negative points, I am merely pointing out the situation.

Well that is a bit odd. Basically they own the right to sell those images, so unless you bought them from another stock image seller who is associated with Shutterstock, then you bought from someone who doesn't have the right to sell you those images, meaning that you would have no rights to use them. If you'd prefer to take this to PM, and let me know who you bought it from, I could try to find out if you have proper royalty free images or not?

There are load os site that offer royalty free images, for example istock - fotolia ... i bought it from fotolia ....

Someone left me this negative rep : very bad. using copyrighted images to win the contest. be creative.

Oooooo i used Royalty Free images in my logo - just say we have to use an real photo of apple or something ...and then it would be like ...oooo i saw that image in shutterstock .... its copyright not allowed ...oooooooooooo then i get an negative rep from anonymous user ...how silly .

Well, it wasn't me mate. I haven't got time for giving negative rep points just cos someone made a mistake. We all do it at some point in our lives, and most of us learn from them.

Personally i've looked at your online portfolio, and seen your iTrader here and i can see you're a talented artist and designer. I got no beef with you. As I stated before, I'm merely pointing out the situation.

It appears that artists have these microstock sites sell off their work. The more sites they submit their work to the better opportunity they have for their work to be sold, and therefore receive more money. And Fotolia also has similar licensing terms to Shutterstock.

Calm down dude. I do this on threads if i see it. I inform, i don't try to slate the individual. Some people don't know all the rules and regs of design and that's fine, but some of us who try to make a living out of it have to be more careful. Yes you've been on this forum for 2.5 years, but i've been in the art and graphics industry for nearly half my life. I've tried to be reasonable about it, and to pass on necessary info to help you in future, but if you're going to act unprofessionally about it, I honestly cannot be bothered.

I wish you well.

It is totally irrelevant if it´s illegal or not. If you work for a client, there is a single important rule: Don´t harm your client. When you use stock images there is the obvious risk that someone else will use exactly the same image.

After you´ve pretended to be pleased by the compliments for "your" work before, you shouldn´t complain if it rained down negative feedback.

You have found, as I have found, that Aderain ( and his police partner TightDesign ) do this as a matter of course...... they call people out to eliminate competition. I call 'em like I see 'em. Aderain spends 90% of his time trying to find that someone used a partial graphic from somewhere.... instead of designing himself. Aderain was actually called out on a thread about 8 weeks ago for using clip art silohuettes on a thread that you can find by searching his posts. Numerous people caught him.

Hello pot, this is the kettle calling. ????

I actually think TightWad might be Aderain.

People with balls stand up to these guys and defend their work. Let your work stand on it's merits.

I am not advocating copyright violation and make all of my own artwork...... Thanks anyway, Cop wannabee's.

Outspoken as always Manzanvil, and as ever not completely correct. One person called me out. I showed my case and that i designed it myself. Said individual who commented on my work gave no source to backup his claim, and never came back with any after i asked him to.

I am not Tight Design, and to be honest wish i was as good a designer as he is when it comes to the logos and such on here. In fact i take it as a compliment that you think me as good as he is, to believe that we are on the same level.

It's not about eliminating the competition, it's about stating the situation. But using your analogies, i'd rather be a "cop" or "cop tool" than whatever the opposite must be, and using your terms, that must be a "criminal". One does it right, and one does it wrong. And any that cannot backup their claim, feel they have to fight back, or attack others rather than claiming a lack of knowledge that they'd done wrong in the first place must have something to hide, or a knowledge that they are in the wrong.

If you are going to attack someone, please make sure that you get your facts straight before doing so.

using stock images as the main part of a logo design is the equivalent to selling someone his own ass.

haha that's gold!

real logos don't use clipart.

real designers don't use clipart for logos.

if people like aderain and tightwad call people out for violating copyrights, i say more power to 'em.

and if you don't like it, then quit using clipart!
