Contest $20 Logo Contest - Popular Blog and Detailed Guidelines

    My current logo has had it's run and it is time for a total makeover of my blog: StandOutBlogger.com

    This Is My current Logo:

    [​IMG]

    It was fantastic at the time, but a couple of years on it is starting to look dated.

    Things I Don't Like:
    • The Glossy Web 2.0 Look
    • Dated Fonts

    Getting that out of the way, I have done up a simple concept of how I would like the new logo to look:

    [​IMG]

    What I Am Looking For:
    • The Pop Out Card Icon
    • Use Of 'Reznor' Font (Or Similar)
    • Colour Palette Included (Small Variation Allowed)
    • Prefer AI File, but PSD Is Ok (Just Let Me Know)

    I am open to suggestions, but a great example of a popout that I really love is: The Paperboy Tshirt

    Be creative with the icon, because that is what will make your design stand out from the other entries.

    If you have any questions, ask them in the thread.

    The Winning Designer Will Receive $20 and a dedicated post on StandOutBlogger.com once the rebranding is complete.

    That is right, just a plain white background.

    And for anyone looking for the font I have used: Reznor Font

    @Tzapu - I think you misunderstood my thoughts.

    I a happy with how the font and colour of the font is. The thing that I want focused on is the popout. I made that myself and am not happy with how it looks, I was looking for some creativity in the icon to go with the typography.

    ideosmil - They look amazing! I love the icon in the first entry, but it doesn't seem to fit with the typography.

    The second entry flows a lot better, but I would like to see a couple of different typography options if that is possible?

    (I am heading to work, so won't be able to reply for about 8 hours.)
