Hey DP Dudes and Dudettes! This contest is for a single logo for this website. Refer to the WEBSITE DETAILS section for specifics. You have 72 hours to submit entries via this post. Winner gets $50 via PayPal. Please refer to the more detailed section below for specifics: ABOUT ME: I reside in Dodge City, Kansas, a famous town with a rich heritage. Dodge city is the wild and wholly town featured in movies such as Gunsmoke, Tombstone and other western movies. Dodge City is famous for outlaws like Wyatt Earp, Jesse James and Bat Masterson. We are well known for our lawlessness, gunfights and Boothill Cemetery, where cowboys were buried with their boots on. I Operate a community website which was founded to give the common citizen the voice to speak out about issues that occur in Dodge City and in Kansas. Through our collective voice, we have affected positive change in our small community. Our old motto was "We Don't Need No Stinking Badges" meaning "all the little guys have a voice." Dodge City is famous for the saying "Get the Hell Outa Dodge!". WEBSITE DETAILS: URL: http://www.dodgeboard.com Website Software: vBulletin 4.0.7 Suite but getting ready to convert to Xenforo Forums Software New forums website where the logo will go: (In testing stage): www.dodgeboard.com/community Other Websites in Dodge City (For Inspiration): http://www.dodgecity.org/ http://www.visitdodgecity.org/ http://www.dodgeglobe.com/ More about Dodge City: http://www.americanwest.com/pages/dodge.htm I am trying to get away from larger horizontal banner style logos. I will consider varying sized logos for the banner area (left side), but they should have a transparent background so they can be used on skins of varying colors. CONTEST DETAILS: 1. Submit web design entries for 72 hours from the time stamp on this post. Revisions on entries can be made until the contest is up. I will attempt to give feedback on entires as they occur in this thread. 2. All entries should appear in this thread. 3. Once 72 hours is up, I will review all designs thoroughly and give my thoughts/opinions on every single design. 4. In addition to the first place prize of $50, if there is a second design that strikes my interest, I reserve the right to extend to that creator a second place prize award of $30 for use on another user selectable style skin. 5. Winner provides PNG/JPG file format. 6. I will send $50 via PayPal. I am a verified/Premier Paypal member and can give you a link to my verified status if you so desire. 7. Yes, I am new on DP so I understand concerns about credit worthiness. Just send me a PM if you would like proof of that- no offense will be taken. You will find I am a known member on the vBulletin.com, vBulletin.org, and Xenforo forums under this same username. RULES: By submitting an entry, you agree to the following: 1. You must create the designs yourself. No templates. You must not use any images you do not have the right to use. 2. If you use watermarks, it must say "Sample" (for consistency). Do not let watermarks affect your design or send your non-watermarked entry via PM. 3. You agree to let me use a representation of your design. If you do not win, you keep all rights and can even sell your design to someone else. However, you must remove anything that identifies this company specifically (e.g., company name, logo, pictures from this contest, etc.). 4. By accepting the winnings, winner agrees to transfer me full rights to that design and you agree that you will not use the winning design for anything else. The 72 hour deadline will be enforced as long as there are at least five entries. Let me know if you have any questions! Happy designing, Dodgeboard.com
I got that you are asking for a logo. here is my attempt bro: PM if interested, I look forward to future business with you!
@Todd. You are on the right track with the western motif. This logo will need to be a little more compact, though. @kmamaji. Cool, but not really "western"
@HomeDesigner I like the size and orientation. Lettering seems like it's missing something...shading, western font... Any way to incorporate some six-shooters?
the shading wont look Good in the Blue background !! Western font .. this one is possible six-shooters !! Why not !! i'll see what i can do
@AMFGraphics Interesting idea. I like what you are doing with the font. At first glance, it was a bit tough to make out the cowboys.
Remember, there will likely be a first and a second place so you could conceivably win $80 if you have more than one entry and both are chosen.
Hello, My concept is quite simple, dodge = dodge bullet that is flying to you from dodge town. I would like that no one would try to copy the concept. 100% vector,mine. Feedback appreciated. Cheers, Augustas
