Contest $35 Logo for Programming Blog

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by ColorWP.com, Jun 17, 2013.

  1. #1
    I am running a programming blog - ephp.info, which is basically a blog for programming tips and a way to showcase/upsell our services (web development, design, consulting).

    I am looking for a new logo for this blog.

    You are not constrained to specific colors, but I like the light blue and red in the current logo. The logo should have a professional/corporate feel and must be in AI or other vector format.

    The contest will run until June 30. I prefer entries via PM only.

    Let your imagination go wild!

    @A87: I like your entries, but they are too simplistic. I am looking for something that incorporates a bit more graphical elements - not just fonts.

    Thank you for the entry!

    @christiano18: That was my initial idea when I was building the site, but it looks too simplistic. Try to incorporate some graphical elements, not just font.

    @spikesolo: Yours is my favorite at the moment (the one on the left). Both tech looking and professional. Could you try some variations of it? Like different color schemes, gradients, shadows?

    @christiano18: Again, too simplistic and not quite professional.

    Tilted/italic text is not really my favorite. Also, the colors are a bit too dark.

    @frikusha - Yours is my new favorite. Good interpretation of shapes and corners, plus some subtle lightning. The font is nice as well (maybe the "e" can use some variations?).

    @frikusha: The one with the smaller "e" from the revision is the best, although the dot before "info" seems a bit misplaced or maybe just white color doesn't suit it.

    A side note, you do have a vector format of it, correct?

    @sweetkate: Too playful, colorful and doesn't convey the message that we are a software consulting/services firm. Thank you for the entry!
