$50 for Logo and Icons - 2 contests in one!

    My client, Virtual ITO, needs to put some custom imagery onto a joomla template, see http://callvito.com/

    The graphics needed:

    1. Logo for the business and site. "Call Vito" is the catch phrase, but Virtual ITO is the name. You can see the services offered on the site - most of the text is already in. The logo should be the same size as the graphic that's in there now. Bonus points (sorry no extra money) if you create two graphics, one that glows for the rollover like it's there now.
    2. A nice "Panic Button" logo to replace the tempoary one that's in there right now. Yes, I know it's ugly.
    3 - 6. Graphics to replace the Magician's hat icons that are on the right side of some pages and tops of others. The 4 services are "Manage IT", "Support IT", "Watch IT", and "Watch IT Enterprise". The last two should be similar / related as it's essentially the same service for different markets.
    7. A graphic to replace the right arrow, for "Contact Us".

    2-7 should all look similar.

    I reserve the right to split the prize $25/$25 if I choose the logo from one person and the icons from another.

    Logo sizes should be the same as existing, so as not to break the template.

    Upon selection and payment, full rights for the logo and icons will belong to the client and the designer will agree not to distribute, sell or republish this logo elsewhere without permission.

    Good luck!

    and on your site:

    Hi, thanks for the entries so far. Jboo's is mroe along the lines of what we're looking for.

    Another point, Orange is not necessarily the colour to use. If you surf around the site, you'll notice a number of different colour schemes, one for each top tab section.

    Hoping for more entries...

    TD,

    I do sincerely appreciate your efforts. If you have a look at the original template - http://demo.yootheme.com/sep07/index.php - it's close to where we want to end up. But obviously, we don't want to use those graphics.

    Thanks for this info Billy,
    I looked around the site some more and saw the different colors you were talking about
    if you chose my logo, would you be interested in me making it different colors to match each of the subpages (for the same prize money) ? I think that would be a kind of cool idea. Just throwing it out there

    Sorry, I'm closing this contest due to lack of interest. Thanks for your efforts, TD and jboo, but niether entry is really doing it for me.

    I'm at a loss as to why a $20 logo competition gets 10+ entries, and a $50 competition only gets two...

    I would have entered, I just wasant around when you did it. Also, you're asking for quite a few things within the $50. :)
