Contest Header & Logo Contest $25

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Henyo, Mar 12, 2013.

    Hi everyone,

    I'm looking for a header & logo for a brand new site - details below:

    Logo & header must include site name The Confidence Resource

    www.theconfidenceresource.com (site has no content yet).

    The website will be an authority site about confidence, self help and self improvement, the logo & header can reflect this.

    Design must look professional and authoritive - warm colours (red orange and yellow) seem to portray confidence but feel free to be creative!

    The competition will be open until midnight Sunday 17th - I will announce the winner on Monday and they will receive $25 via paypal within 24 hours.

    Thank you and I'm looking forward to seeing your entries :)

    I've noticed no one has posted an entry so far - please let me know if you need more details about my requirements.

    I have thought a bit more about what I want and I will be using an orange and yellow colour scheme on my site for menus, side bars ect. #FF9900 & #FFCC00 if that helps at all. I've also thought about incorporating an image of a sun or a lion into the logo however any other symbols of confidence would be good as well.

    Thanks

    Bluenix, thanks for your entry.

    I like the colour scheme, however I'm not sure the muscles logo is quite what I'm looking for.

    It looks a bit 'comic book' like for a self help site, could you maybe try a more professional looking text?

    Thank you

    Hi Frikusha,

    Thanks for your entry.
    Your design is definitely more what I was looking for.
    Are you open to revisions?
    Would you be able to try changing either the text or the lion image in the logo to black?
    Also is it possible to use the same colours of the lion image to create a sun image and pair that with black text?
    For the header, I’m looking for something a bit simpler, but I’d be happy to use just a smaller version of the logo in the left corner with white space.
    Also, is there any chance of posting your design in this thread?
    Thanks

    Hi Animman,

    Thanks for your entry. I really like the text - it looks very professional.

    I'm not sure about the lion logo though as it is very similar to one of an insurance company we have here. If you're open for revisions would you be able to try using a sun logo instead in a similar colour? Are you also able to post your entry in the thread?

    Thanks

    Hi everyone,

    Thank you for taking the time to make the revisions I suggested, the logos are looking really good.

    Anniman,

    I like the logo with the sun a lot – would you be able to try filling the sun in completely maybe using orange and yellow?

    I definitely prefer the sun design to the lion & sun combined. Could you post your entry in the forum?

    Frikusha,

    I think I prefer the sun design to the lion, it seems to reflect the ‘self help’ theme of the site. Could you try filling in the middle of the sun with solid colour as well?

    Bluenix,

    Whilst the text does look better with a stronger outline, I still think the muscular arms don’t really reflect the theme of the site unfortunately.

    Thank you!

    Hi gregMASTER, thanks for your entry. I like the style and layout of the text but I'm not sure about the logo, maybe a bit too nautical themed for a self help site. Did you want to try a revision with a different logo - making it look a bit more like a sun?
