$40, 24hour submission, 1 winner contest.

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by thallewell, May 20, 2008.

    Hi Everyone,

    Company Name: The Regal Press (regalpress.com)
    Tagline: Beyond Print, Beyond Expectations.
    Colors: Navy Blue, Gold, (Regal or "Royal" colors) no neons or pastels.
    Logo Style: Classical
    Possible Imagery: A crown or a coat of arms.

    The client wants the logo to reflect history of quality as well as possibly technology.

    The winning logo will be replacing the King TuT facade on "regalpress.com". So design your logo so it looks good on the website.

    I will pay $40 to the winner.

    The contest is supposed to run 24 hours. This does not mean the winner will be chosen in 24 hours, it means that I will let my client decide the winner from submissions that were submitted in the first 24 hours.

    If my client does not like any of the designs and chooses not to purchase one then I will decide the first place winer on my own and pay them $20. This is not likely to happen since about 90% of my contests result in my client purchasing the logo.

    Please no PM'd submissions.

    Must provide finished logo in a vector format.

    Please no submissions in .png format.

    (I still get .png every contest)

    If you have any other questions please, do ask.

    Some clients are faster than others when it comes to choosing a winning design so please be patient. The final decision could possibly take longer than a week.

    I look forward to seeing the submissions.

    if you are going to participate in this contest please notify me by posting it in the thread. This allows me to gauge just how many submissions to expect.

    I will participate - I will make a logo by tomorrow. Do you want us to post straight vector files (so no .png previews)?

    You can post it in jpeg if you like or vector, I just can't work with .png files.

    It has all the elements you requested. The printing press and shield that make up the coat of arms are vector and hand drawn. Feedback appreciated.

    Jacqueline,

    I really like your design, I think that the colors will need to be changed, something that will fit better with the website (but the design is great).

    Thank you. Your initial request specified Navy and Gold as the colors, but I can make the colors anything they like.

    I thought they might want to get a feel for what the website would look like with updated colors, so I made this quick mock-up.

    Jacq,

    I like yours a lot so far, thanks for the submissions. Of course, my client decides what one wins, not me.

    I am still hoping to get at lease 3 more designs to show my client before the contest is over, I am sure there a are a few more good designs out there=).

    Ishiro,

    Yours really isn't what was asked for in the description, but I will show it to my client anyway, maybe he will really like it. I think it is a fine design, just not much what was asked for.

    No... I have already shown them to the client.

    Still no update, sorry guys. If I don't here from my client in the next 7 days I will decide the winner myself and pay them the $20 prize.
