$40 logo contest - fishing boats!

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Outlaw_Racing, Apr 10, 2009.

    Hi

    I need a new logo for a site www. SeaFishingBoats .co .uk

    I would like it to be a colourful and eye catching design, it needs to work on a white background.

    I would like the logo to consist of a trawler at sea pulling in nets full of fish, I would like there to be some seagulls in action as well.

    I need the domain name in the logo.

    $40 prize money, I will run the contest over the weekend but I would like to get the winning logo done in the next 24 hours if possible.

    I will try and give feedback as and when.

    Best of luck!

    Heres a try, Ive used a trawler and made the reflection look distorted as if caused by ripples:

    Thanks for getting involved! - logo looks a little "clip art" and I cannot easily read the words with that font type.

    Not sure about the reflection, largely due to the font type I guess.

    Would be interested to see what else you come up with and thanks again.

    Oh I'm sorry for not being an expert artist like you may be but I'm still trying with whatever much I can. If you can't appreciate work Mr High and Mighty, then please don't depreciate it...however insignificant and cheap it may seem to you.

    Thank You.

    It is fair enough and that is what you SHOULD ask for but if everyone created their own Images and Fonts well then you would get just about 1 or 2 posts...and that too, not necessarily something that you would like. It is a massive waste of time for the designer in case you don't like it. That is why people use free images and fonts along with their own ideas and present something to you.

    As for the clip art that I DID use, well it was free...it was the 150 pixel JPEG image...confirm it here:

    No need to be sorry - and I am far from an expert. I just take pride in my work and
    keep people from having to deal with legal issues using "free" images and presenting them
    as their own.

    No, you're not trying - you're being lazy and thought using clipart would get you though.
    It doesn't because there are tons of people on this forum who will nail you everytime for
    using someone else's work.

    Trying is actually getting a program and creating something on your own however bad
    or good it is.

    I appreciate the artist who created it, not you who tried to pass it off. You're not going
    to get sympathy here so quit playing the victim after being caught. Now run along little
    child, there are actual artists on here. Cya Chump!

    I will keep this contest going a bit longer, I have received a couple of entries so far but as it is Easter for a lot of people I will keep the contest alive for another day or so.
