I have a client. He needs a logo for a new website and podcast. It is called the From The Horses Mouth. He wants it bright and vibrant. Open minded. But obviously has to be eye catching when logo on ITunes. Thanks
$15 and "obviously has to be eye catching" Its time for all designers don't waste time to join contest below $20.
I agree with you on principle but.....young and inexperienced designers need to advertise themselves and showcase their talents. Posting on these low reward contests is a way to do that. Experienced designers who have earned a good reputation should however stay away from any contest that offers less than $20-$25. I have noticed a growing trend by contest holders as of late to offer $100-$125, this is the way it ought to be and hopefully will be going forward.
Those who participate in these competitions cause problems for designers in the near term and for themselves in the long term
