$40 Simple Design Comp (Guaranteed)

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by staffjam, Oct 22, 2010.

  1. #1
    Total Prize: $40
    Design: Banner type design
    Contest End: Monday 25th October at 18:00 GMT
    Entries: Do NOT PM me your entries – Please post ALL entries on this thread.
    Note: Please read ALL of the instructions before putting a design in.
    Note 2: I have run over 40 competitions here and i ALWAYS pay - even if i don't get what i want.

    I am looking to have a small table designed.
    Please take a look at: http://www.usdebtclock.org/energy.html
    As this has all of the information you will need. You should go to the last column though and the section with the figures will need to look good for 9 figures and 6 figures.
    Do not copy the whole thing though – i just want a column for the energy type, e.g. crude oil and another column for the actual figure.

    The design will need to include all of the below - but they must be Very Neat and professional as they will be going on finance sites.
    You can put the numbers to the side or below each section.

    As you can see from the link provided – this chart is very large – the ones you design MUST be much smaller and more compact. Take a look at: http://www.sanebull.com/widgets
    This is nice and compact – please try and do something similar.
    If a design is too large and has unnecessary space it will automatically be ruled out.
    Take a look at this also for a very nice example of a compact design: http://www.sanebull.com/widgets (Actually you should try and make it like this – exactly) – maybe with emblems for the different fuels or maybe just as text.

    World Energy Production - Please also have the Billion BTU's
    Crude Oil
    Natural Gas
    Coal
    Nuclear
    Biomass
    Hydroelectric
    Biofuels
    Geothermal
    Wind
    Solar
    Total Energy Production
    Total Energy Consumption

    At the bottom the design will need to have a very subtle: OilPrice.com and underneath the box a: Get Widget button.

    Good luck.

    Sparkle - just like that - could you also put in the Billion BTU's.
    And the Get widget please have outside the box - but that is the sort of thing - off to a great start.

    Thanks for your entries – here is some feedback:

    Sarah – it’s professional and neat – but i’m sorry to say a little dull - i do like how you have the title though and the get widget buton is perfect. It just needs something more to liven it up.

    Todd Duquette – It’s quite nice – but just feels a bit flaky and weak to me. This is fantastic financial info and the design should reflect the importance of the data.

    Sparkle – it’s nice – and i like the little emblems – but they just look a bit too friendly. They need to be more serious. It also seems to be missing something.

    Natali77 – I like how you have the Billion BTU’s under the heading – but i’m afraid this feels very disjointed.

    Divineworld – I like the little icons – but the rest of the design just feels thrown together – it needs to be in a box – and it needs to look serious, not friendly – but i do like where you are going with it.

    Looking forwards to seeing more designs.

    Here’s some feedback:

    Divineworld – thanks for making the revisions – sadly it still isn’t working for me.

    Dustnx – it’s nice and neat – but it’s a bit long. Could you also change Total Energy Production and Total Energy Consumption to: Total Production and Total Consumption – as it just looks bad and not uniform.

    Sarah – These look good – I prefer the middle one in green. Could you please put the relevant numbers in – so i can see how they look, but the font will need to be different to the one you currently have. Could you also change Total Energy Production and Total Energy Consumption to: Total Production and Total Consumption – as it just looks bad and not uniform.

    Tallum – nice and neat. Could you please change Total Energy Production and Total Energy Consumption to: Total Production and Total Consumption – as it just looks bad and not uniform. Also can you think of any small pictures to use? They must look classy and not cartoon like though.

    Natali77 – it’s nice and neat – but just seems to be missing something.

    Finalstraw – I like this – it’s clear and professional looking. Could you please enter relevant numbers so we can see how they look. Also can you think of any small pictures to use? They must look classy and not cartoon like though.

    Turtlepod – Thanks for your entry, sadly it’s not the sort of thing i’m after.
