Thanks kol but I just don't think it's the style we're looking for, we need something that we can use for branding purposes and put on shirts, logos, banners, etc. Great work on the font but I think it's the general concept that won't work. Thanks for entering though! I look forward to seeing more entries!
Hi! That white text was never supposed to be a part of the logo. That was just my speedy way of watermarking it so no one could steal it from this thread. (There seems to be a lot of thieves out there). Even though this really wouldn't work for much besides your site, now that I think on it a bit more. Anyhow here's another attempt at this. I could still see some areas of clean up. I LOVED the block letters with teh shadows being up there... it added all this drama, so rather than erase them I moved them, and a digger robot I designed, down to the bottom of the page. You would not have to use these in the actual logo, but, I figured why not include all these elements so if you choose my file, you can modify it and have several different versions of it, or re-arrange things as you like, etc etc. I am determined to win this one so I am gonna keep working on it. The ground is not part of the logo either. It's just there so you could see the drop shadow on the DUI lol. I may try and find a way to put the DUI back up there with the shovel and treasure. Anyhow, not done, but wanted to show you progress.
It's coming along good! Interesting concept for a digger robot! That might be a good underwater digging suit actually =P
Anyone else going to enter? I saw there were 5 or 6 others who said they would, looking forward to seeing some of those entries =)
Hi there! Here's my try. It took me so long to post coz been busy lately with other contest. It can be improved. Feedback is much appreciated.
hey guys - my partner got temp banned for bumping the thread - he is sorry. I am going to take over the thread and pay the winner. thanks!
I have tweaked this logo some more. If I win, I'll clean it up, but for now I think it shows the idea nicely. I had fun with teh worm. The digger bot is still in the flash file, but hidden in teh library. So if you choose mine, you still get him, and all this stuff. It's done in flash so all the elements are movable shoudl you wish to change them around. http://cameoanderson.deviantart.com/art/Dig-It-Up-108976948
I"m pretty sure it is 7 days after posting. I don't know if this is going to end up being another dead contest or not.
Ther has got to be some way to stop people from holding "dead" contests! It stinks to spend so much time on an entry only to have it canceled. This is happening far too often here. Loosing is one thing, but constantly having no-shows/cancellations stinks. This should have been a good contest, with more entries. I realise this guy got banned for bumping his thread, but, it looks like his friend isn't going to come through... On another note: If the CH doesn't like any o fthe work on here, it would at least be nice to hear an explanation saying so. It's less annoying to hear that than to just disappear.
Ah great I can finally post again! Ok so CameoAnderson you are the winner of this contest for $50, and zyndtel you did an awesome job too so we'd like to give you $25 for yours as well for the work you put into it.
