$25 - 6 HOUR Letterhead Contest - Quick!

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by hawksdomain, Dec 12, 2007.

  1. #1
    Some of you may remember I ran a contest earlier this year for a website and logo design for my new restaurant booking business. Well finally we are getting to the final stages of design, and I'm looking to send out some letterheads to prospective clients, I just need a quality letter design to use for the design.

    Here is the logo for our business:

    [​IMG]

    Obviously I'd like to incorporate the logo, not too concerned about colours, as long as you change the logo colour to suit the design.

    I am looking for a design perhaps a little similar to the following, but obviously with images based around food - I just the gradient idea and darkness and professionalism of this look, please come up with something original though based on this look:

    [​IMG]

    I would like to see some designs incorporating our logo, and if I choose a winner, will then get them to make any changes I need accordingly.

    Prize: $25

    There may not be a winner if I am unhappy with designs.

    Thanks for your entries,
    Rob Burton.

    Wow that was quick,

    I quite like the design, but doesn't really suit the specifications, would like a darker gradient look to the background if possible with some images of restaurant items, example: food, wine etc.

    I do quite like your design though, so would appreciate another entry with some changes.

    Thanks for that, Rob.

    Hi mate,

    I quite like your entry - but it's truthfully probably not suitable for my business, I'm looking for restaurant related images, I guess more food you would eat for dinner etc. rather than fruits. I really like the gradient effect you've used, and wouldn't mind seeing a design with darker colours and a different image - the logo to use is provided in the original post if you need it.

    Cheers, Rob.

    I'm out for a couple of hours, so please keep providing entries and I will reply with feedback before the end of the contest. The contest will finish in 3 hours from now, if there is not an entry I totally like, I will not choose a winner.

    Thanks in advance, Rob.

    I like it mate - could you try maybe to just make the middle bit a little lighter for writing text purposes and we'll see how that looks. Thanks for that.

    Thanks for all the entries, don't have time just at the moment to make a comment on each.

    Just have to say that the contest will be extended for another 12 hours as I am yet to find a design that stands out from the rest, that is not to say I don't like the designs, I just haven't chosen one yet that stands out, so keep the entries coming guys.

    My attempt:

    [​IMG]

    * the original has letterhead size (bigger than this preview) also 300dpi and CMYK colors ready to print =)

    oh, i almost forgot, if you like the tomato and the knife i can vector them so they wont be pixelated images.
