$30.00 icon contest!

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by toolsmith, Jul 18, 2009.

    Well we're back with another contest this time for an icon for our new app. Our application is a CMMS (computerized maintenace management system) called FMS. The icon will need to be delivered in the following sizes:

    16x16
    32x32
    64x64
    128x128

    It should be simple so the details aren't lost with the 16x16 size yet clean and professional with a web 2.0 look and feel for the larger sizes. We'd like to incorporate the colors from our recent logo contest if possible (seen below) but don't feel as though you have to use these colors.

    As for the design of the icon I'll leave that to the artists. We would like an image without text as the text gets lost with smaller sizes.

    Once my partner and I decide on an icon we both like payment will be made via PayPal and the images will need to be in *.ico format.

    Thanks again and we look forward to another great contest!
    -Paul

    I think we're looking for a design instead of text and it should represent maintenance management.

    Thanks,
    -Paul

    Robi - This reminds me of the windows logo but with our colors. We're looking for a symbolic design that represents maintenance prevention etc.

    Thanks,

    pheonix89 - This is exactly what we're looking for! I love the cog with the shield. Would it be possible to see it in a few color variations using our swatch of colors from above?

    Maybe color the white parts of the shield with a blue... The cog seems to dissapear in the 16x16

    Thanks,
    -Paul

    Thanks but I was thinking of keeping the orange and replacing the white part of the shield with the blue you used here so essesntially the shield would be the orange and blue...is that possible?

    Thanks,
    -Paul

    Congratulations to pheonix89 for his latest design.

    We'll be holding another contest shortly for silhouette images using this icon as a watermark.

    Thanks to everyone who entered,
    -Paul
