$20 - 48hrs Hard Dance logo update.

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by pj hardon, Sep 29, 2011.

    Value:
    $20USD or $20AUD for first place prize
    If I like/want a second design I will offer $10USD or $10AUD for second place prize
    Payment via PayPal
    If in the US give me a day to reply/make payment due to time difference.

    Time:
    48hrs. Please allow 72 before the decision is made as I will post of FB to get opinions of others.

    Design:
    Vector Image of logo, split into its individual layers for future updating (eps or ai if possible).
    Simple design that will look good and clear in thumbnails.
    Keep to the same style of Arrow down over eclipse. (I'm actually wanting the logo itself redesigned its is a bit hard to explain. I want the arrow pointing down and the eclipse as just the 'idea' but you can change everything about the logo and start from scratch. You choose the arrow design and the eclipse design, hope this helps.)

    More Info:
    I do a lot of design work myself so when it comes to designing my own stuff it's generally done with an 'I couldn't be bothered attitude'.
    I'm looking for someone to redesign the look... actually more like play with the current design and come up with something better. :D
    This is the website you will be designing for: Hard Dance Australia
    Currently I only have a PSD... yes a psd I was messing around in PS when I made it so no vector files. The main reason I am doing this is that I feel the logo is too thin and needs some style! The original idea was created from a downward pointing play button and the eclipse is designed from the edge of a turntable platter.

    Files:

    Well, I didn't actually take the arrow and ellipse design, but I've just noticed you wanted the whole thing changed, not only the logo with the site name right :D? If so, then I did only the site-name logo part, nothing more. I will make another one then, giving you this one too, just because I've already finished it and have nothing to use it for. I should've read the post more carefully ;).

    Here's the part I did:

    Thanks for your design, I like the colors you have chosen! As for the design I made up some examples of what I wanted to see. Once you get the idea just go wild! Im looking for creativity more than anything as I have none and even something 2D would be fine as I can take it from there! Good Luck! ;)

    Sorry for no responding, I had totally unexpected busy days this weekend, so I was unable to do the logo :/. But there is another problem, this forum LAGGS AS F*** since saturday (first time in my life I experience something like that...), sometimes it's totally impossible for me to enter it. I couldn't read the thread for a whole day :/. Give me 24h and I will do the logo, if I will post nothing it will mean only one thing: forum lagged so much I couldn't enter, and post anything att all. I hope that at least this message will post...

    Thanks for the info etekiller. I'll extend the end time 24hrs and because of this I'll add another $5 to first place. If you have trouble posting here you can send a flat/watermarked image to playhardstyle'at'hotmail.com and I'll post it in this thread before making the decision.

    Hardstyle aye. Do you know of DJ Haze, owns the Executive Records label? Used to go to school with him haha. He is not really a hardstyle producer/DJ though.

    Yeah I know of him but never seen him play live. Just had a look at Executive Records label page and saw 'S3RL' on there, he will be playing at two of the events I'll be streaming live from the website.
