Ful1ServiceIT needs a logo & biz card $69 for the best design

oneclickfixed

Apr 13th 2007, 9:47 am

Logo contest for a tech consulting company. My story is that I am getting back into tech consulting, I have been out for the last 3 years. But now I am getting back in and need a professional logo and business card to go with it. I registered a domain name:

Ful1ServiceIT.com

Regarding indexing: I put the 1 in Full to prevent indexing. Please do not refer to the website name in it's proper spelling in a forum post on this thread. Thanks in advance.

I need a logo that I will use on a website and on a business card. At some point I will probably have it printed on a shirt. Anyhow, I don’t have much input on colors or what exactly I am looking for in a logo. Keep in mind that this will be shown to business clients only. It can be simple like a playing with the fonts and colors or maybe have a graphic integrated. I would like it to look snazzy.

I am offering $69 for the logo and business card. I will provide constant feedback. I will need the logo in photoshop format, or whatever the prevalent format is. I will need the business card inserted into a template to upload to the printer. Other then that, it’s pretty simple. I will be paying through PayPal. I am also willing to Western Union the payment, but will take the fees out of the $69. By far my preference is PayPal though.

I want to have this completed ASAP, however there is no deadline. As soon as I see a potential winning design, I will make a cut off date. The last logo contest I did this way took 7 days to have a winner.

andrej: Thank you for entering the contest. The first logo is not what I am looking for and hard to read. I do like the font in the second submission, but I don't think in its present form, will represent me professionally.

zinruss: Thank you for entering the contest. The issue I have with your submissions is the text layout. It places the emphasis on Full but the emphasis should be one Full Service. Pretty neat with the power button.

i_luv_pitza: Thank you for entering the contest. I don't see how the graphic fits the business. The test looks odd.

DustyDog: Thank you for entering the contest. Very clean! Looks nice, but a bit too simple. Do you have any other concepts?

Mike S.: Thank you for entering the contest. I'm surprised you submitted that. Are you serious?

KitschSpirit: Thank you for entering the contest. Cool. A bit hard to read. Will Ferrari sue me?

[x[x]x]: Thank you for entering the contest. Interesting. What it the graphic? Just a random image? Interesting.

raghav: Thanks for entering the competition. I like where you are going with the design. I really like the card, neat! I'm not sure about the graphic. I like that one is there, but I don't see how it ties into the business or the business name. Maybe if you can work on that like you did in my last contest. You added the simplest thing with the network cable off of the x.

I really like that card.

oneclickfixed

Apr 16th 2007, 10:40 am

raghav: Also a note on the color, I'm thinking of trying different colors. I think full service should be the same color with a contrasting color for IT. Maybe a gold and blue. Well you are the designer and probably know what colors go good together. I want to keep the blue because it looks good on that card.

Also, thats one cool card, I am concerned about that graphic because I have see it used many time in contest forums like these before. As a matter of fact, it has been proposed to me about 4 years ago on sitepoint. Do you have any other ideas about that? Also, the colors are great!

Barbie2274: Thank you for entering the contest. Very creative. While I appreciate the creativity, the graphic looks odd. Has a Hawaiian feel to it. Probably not the best fit for my company. I like how you put the name, but prefer 2 contrasting colors. Thanks.

raghav: Thanks for the new entry. I don't think it is the design for me.

Some thoughts and suggestions to all
Please make Full & Service the same exact font and size. Then do something different with IT.

I wish I had some suggestions of what I am looking for or some ideas to throw out there. Maybe play with the initials F S over I T. Here is a creative idea. Three circles close enough together where they all intersect at some point. You all have seen this before in school. Similar to 3 rings of the Olympic logo, only more squashed together. It is hard to explain.

oneclickfixed

Apr 17th 2007, 9:28 am

Similar to this. But it will need to look cool. Without all that writing in the circles.

Wow, that was Quick. Great job guys.

With the three circles, the point is to see where the 3 intersect. Link in the examples, so I think the circles submitted are not going to work. Maybe is they were translucent and the small section where they intersect be a different color and tie that color into the font color. Just a thought.

I think the design that is the closest to my suggestion is xpressions because the 3 circles are linked together, which is what I was looking for. A few of the other designs look like circles on top of each other.

xpressions: I like it, but seems like it doesn't flow well. I can't put my finger on it. I might be the colors used or the shape of the graphic.

Hey this was just a suggestion, the 3 circles. I am completely open to all ideas and concepts, but I would like to get this all completed reasonable soon. I appreciate all of the effort that all of the designers have given this.
