    This is an easy task for the graphic artist lovers out there. I won't be online to monitor this contest as I do my others but I will send feedback as often as possible.

    Attached is a simple logo I created about three years ago. (if you don't see the logo please PM me). I have lost the software that I used and forgot what font I use as well. It would be great to see if you can keep this logo as original as possible using these two main colours: Shocking colour green and shocking colour orange.

    The second part of the contest is that I want a simple ad to place in a magazine. You create an image/banner ad using pictures from this website w w w . fine tings dot com.
    The size of the image should be 148mm x 210mm (I guess this can be resized) and in landscape format.

    Wording:
    For all the fine gastronomes of Jamaica, indulge in the delicacies - Blue Mountain Coffee, Rum Cakes, Teas, Rum Creams and more. Visit w w w. F ineTin gs.Com

    It is possible that I may select different winners for different contests dividing the funds. You can enter one, or the other or both.

    This contest will close in 2 to four days and I can select a winner prematurely. I always give bonuses. ALWAYS!

    Regards,
    Cigam1.

    Is that the best quality image you can provide? If a better picture was taken, it would be much easier to identify the fonts.

    Hello Todd. The magazine ad is to just drive college students and their magazine readers to the website. The college kids are creating a fund-raising magazine where they ask for donations and they place the ad in their fund raising magazine.

    Your logo is a pretty good attempt. Could you find a font that allows for curved corners and pointy edges? As a guideline, looking at my image you could make the blue section one colour and the silver section the other colour but the curved and pointy edges are important. Also, for the name Techni Shack, please chose a font that is not all uppercase - Techni Shack

    Thanks plenty and looking forward to your edited version.

    Regards,
    Cigam1.

    Br0th3r... you are on the ball. I really can't find anything wrong with your logo. First, I like the brighter colours (ones at the bottom) but I want you to keep the top fonts (it's just like mine). What I would like to see though (and I know you can pull this off) is to make the 'S' in the green bottom logo orange and the 'S' in the orange bottom logo green. With the font colour, the 'Techni' will take the colour of whatever the colour of the 'T' is and Shack the colour of whatever colour the 'S' is.

    TS Techni Shack

    Thanks plenty my friend. Good Job.

    Br0th3r... Great Work!

    Just a few minor fixes. The 'dot' on above the 'i' is somewhat lost. Can you bring the wording Techni Shack a safe distance below the logo so it does not touch? Thanks.

    For the ad, elicacies should be delicacies - the 'd' is missing. While you are at it please remove the comma after Jamaica and replace it with a dash: For all the fine gastronomes of Jamaica - indulge in the delicacies:

    Also kindly remove the first rum cake picture on the landscape ad and replace it with a cropped section of the coffee picture showing 100% JAMAICA BLUE MOUNTAIN COFFEE. Kindly keep the other ad as is only correcting the wording as well and bring up the word 'gastronomes' in the first line if you can.

    That should do it. Please pardon my late response.

    Regards,
    Cigam1.
