$100 Logo Design - Exciting new project

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Fatscamp, Jan 16, 2008.

    $100 to the winning entry. Please see guidelines and terms below.

    I am beginning work on an exciting project and in the first instance require a logo for Student.FM

    This will eventually be a student focused community site joining students across the world. The idea being it will focus on student radio, audio and video podcasts, articles and blogs relevant to the global student market place. In additional students will have their own profile etc and there will be groups for universities etc.

    The logo needs to relevant to the audience, striking yet simple, iconic and really represent the Student.FM brand. In addition I would welcome any strap line ideas incorporated in the design.

    I am completely open to ideas, colours and designs but I do think a white background is important as is a modern web 2.0 'feel' (if such a thing actually exists). I will provide regular, honest feedback which will I hope shape the entries as we go. The competition will last 2 weeks from the thread posting date, payment immediately upon receipt of completed artwork and will be via PayPal. I reserve the right NOT to choose a winner in the event that I do not feel anything is suitable but may ask to work further (for an additional fee) with a chosen designer, but obviously I would prefer no to do this.

    All copyright must pass to me upon payment and all artwork must be completely original and not infringe on any copyright in any way.

    Any questions please PM me.

    Many thanks for reading and good luck to all..

    Hi Steve, I hoped that I had explained things clearly in the brief, if not, appologies.

    I'm looking for a logo for a brand new community web site for students worldwide providing podcasts, student radio stations, blogs etc...

    As for your ideas the first says to me Harvard, the rest grunge (and they are hard to read) neither of which is particuarly inclusive.

    I have always been very impressed with the quality of entries on this forum so I'm very much looking forward to seeing some more entries.

    Thanks, Paul.

    I'll jump in the fray, but if it lasts 2 weeks, might take care of some other projects first.

    Thanks for your entry, I was hoping for something a little more iconic/symbolic incorporated with the text that helps to say what it is. To be honest if it is just simple text I was after I would do it myself. Please feel free to submit an alternative or modified design.

    Cheers,Paul

    Thanks for your entry. The use of headphones icon is ok but a little small, need to be careful not soley radio/music focused as it is a community site also. Certainly worth exploring further.

    Don't like the uneven spacing though!

    Thanks

    Thanks neil a very promising start, i'm pleased you entered. I like the use of colours and the icon too. The font is a little hard to read but as I said excellent start.
