I need a header for my Yankees blog (link in signature.) Size should be 960x130 and I would also like the .psd or edit file for whatever program you used to make it. I would like to end the contest within 48 hours, but that will depend on if I am happy with the results. Seeing some of the work in this forum, I don't think I won't be pleased because some of you are extremely talented. If I don't get anything I like I may extend the deadline by a day or two. Payment is via paypal. Here are the details: For the blog in my signature (yankees) Must have NYCurve.com in it somewhere The header must have a logo in it somewhere and you should be able to give me a separate file with just the logo as well Site colors are white (#FFF) and #003366 For more usable colors check out the Yankees' official site: yankees.mlb.com Size for header is 960x130, size for logo, doesn't really matter as long as it isn't too small Be creative and do what you thinks looks good because in the end you guys are the ones that more about this stuff than me If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. I will also give feedback on all entries.
Looks great, but I would rather see a white background as it would better fit the site. I really like the pinstripes behind the yankees logo and how it fades away. The "C" behind the yankees logo is good and I think the two combined can be a logo of some sort, but maybe make the c stand out more. Same goes for the words "Yankees Blog" Thanks for the entry and I would like to see revisions if possible. I would also like to see other people participate, if any one is up for it...
few revisions: tried to make those 2 stand out a bit more with white background with different font for C
@ Aalto, I like the second one the best, but can you get rid of the "splashes" by the C and perhaps make the C wider near the bottom? Also, I don't like the line effect in nycurve.com (maybe try another font too). Would also like to see "Yankees blog" darker. Maybe you can add a Yankee player to the right side, since it seems empty (preferably Jeter, since he is basically the face of the franchise.) At others: please enter, I really want to see some other people take part in this too...
@Aalto: I would have liked to see the same c, but just make it look more like a c. I would also have preferred an image of jeter in action, either batting or doing one of his amazing in the air catches (I should have specified that, sorry). There is no need to change it though, as I can imagine it and if I pick you as the winner then you can just do it for me (that way it'll save you some time as well) @FlatDesign: Looking forward to your entry @MYND: Great designs, but can I see third one with the light blue part navy (the dark blue you used for the domain) instead? I would also like to see the logo in both white and navy (two separate images) with that change. Also, please try to make the c look a bit more crisp, without the ridges. @leevittome: That's not quite what I'm looking for, thanks for entering though. If you want to try again, then please do so. @everyone else: it's still not to late to enter if you want. I have decided to extend the deadline by 10 hours (which is about 11 hours away from this post.) I had wrote in the original post that it was a possibility, so I am not cheating anyone by doing this. I doubt I will extend it again though, so please try to get your entries in, I will choose after the deadline is over. If you see this post right before the deadline and really want to enter, then just post in this thread and while judging I will keep in mind that you still have to submit one, so I will wait for your entry before making a decision.
Thats okay I don't think I will be entering again. I hope you eventually find what you are looking for Ill be checking this thread to see who the winner is. Good look guys.
I wish I'd seen this in time. I coulda drawn a kick butt baseball! Maybe one blowing through the "paper" bg of the thing. It woulda made a cool logo I think.
MYND was selected as the winner and payment has been sent, he will verify when he gets online. Thanks to all who participated
