$40 Logo Contest for a Music Blog

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by hmansfield, Mar 24, 2009.

  1. #1
    I need a logo for my music blog 124 Beats Per Minute (www.124bpms.com) It's about House and Trance Music Events, Festivals, Music, and Artists worldwide.

    Logo needs to look good on a white or a black background (Making it with a transparent background would be great).

    It must look good large or small. (even small enough for an icon, if possible)

    Something that would look good on T-shirts and Hats, as well as on the site's header.

    It can be Industrial, Religious, Gothic, Urban, Shields, Crests, 2.0 Style...what ever, use your imagination.

    I don't want any quirky cartoon characters, or animals.

    You can either use the name "124 beats per minute" or the web address "124bpms.com" or niether,it's up to you.

    Payment will be a quick $40 U.S.D. by Pay Pal. I must have full rights to the logo.

    Contest is over when I find one that I like (Hopefully by the weekend).

    Look forward to seeing some good stuff.

    Thanks.

    How would that look if it were just the L.E.D. lights with just the web address underneath, same width.

    I do like the simplicity it. I would like to see a few more, but I will definitely keep it on the fore front.

    If you have a second. Could you try a different font, maybe something taller, and squared, not italicized or leaning, (maybe ESPN, or Terminator style) and I am thinking of a more metallic feel for the colors....matching shades of metallic grey and metallic purple, maybe even with a shine on it, or chromed out, or even brushed metal......and maybe shorten the stacks on the L.E.D. lights just a little.

    Funny, but I can see it in my head.

    Yes. Take one more bar off the left stack,and two off the center. It still doesn't have that metallic look to it that I would like to see. I would literally like it to look like industrial metal, or chrome, and I'm still not crazy about the font...need something more "futuristic" or "electronic".

    I'm also adding another $10 on this to make it an even $50 ! Now that I have a vision, I would like to work it out and get it right without being too much of a pain.:)

    That looks good. Let me sleep on it, and make sure there are no other entries..since I just started this a few hours ago..figured I'd give it a couple of days, but that looks nice.

    I did not forget, sorry, didn't show up on email. Looks good, but it's too long for a hat or a shirt pocket

    Kinda of a spin off of mitchar, didn't really add a lot to it. Not crazy about the fonts.
