    Hey guys!

    Together with our new company we are looking for a professional logo. This place is crowded with good designers and we believe that you are able to craft us an excellent corporate identity.

    ABOUT ME:
    -I have been active on DP for quite some time. I know how important communication with the designer is: I always comment on every design, announce a winner, and I always pay.
    - Check out my iTrader: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/itrader.php?u=278515

    OUR COMPANY:
    URL: www.didpm.de, current logo: http://i55.tinypic.com/2z5ua6p.jpg
    Goal for you: Craft a unique and fresh looking design.
    About us: We offer SEO/SEM services.
    Slogan: DIDPM stands for: "Deutsches Institut of Digital Performance Marketing" - sort of, German institute for digital performance marketing.

    CONTEST DETAILS:
    1. Submit CI entries for 7 days from the time stamp on this post. Revisions on entries can be made after the 48 hours are up.
    2. To be fair: No entries via PM and no late entries, please.
    3. Once 72 hours are up I'll go ahead and give detailed feedback to each design.
    4. Revisions are allowed to be done for another 48 hours to give everyone chances to win. Afterwards, no new revisions are accepted.
    5. The Winner has to provide the .psd version of the logo. If there are some minor enhancements, then we'll need you to incorporate them for us.

    RULES:
    With each entry you submit, you agree to:
    1. You are creating the CI on your own. You are not using any templates whatsoever.
    2. If you win, then all the rights are transferred to me. If you don't win, you can keep all the rights. However, you have to remove all the logos/names to make sure nobody can identify our company.

    The deadline is matched as long as there are at least 5 entries submitted for this contest.

    IDEAS:
    -We want to use a red combination, just like the design we currently already have: http://i55.tinypic.com/2z5ua6p.jpg
    -The logo needs to show that this has something to do with SEO/Search. Maybe an arrow up?
    -For some awesome colors, check out http://www.colourlovers.com/.

    Thank you, looking forward to working with you :).

    Looks okay, but there isn't really a Corporate Identity.

    Looking forward to seeing your submission.

    I did not receive it. Please double check, the image posted is not being shown.

    I made a tiny mistake, it should say: Deutsches Institut für Digitales Performance Marketing

    Excellent design, well done. I like the red design a bit more, just personal preference. Please use this one for future revisions. The last arrow, instead of having it horizontal, could it go up diagonal? Any other ideas you may have in mind?

    Great design. I don't like the artwork that much to be honest. Also, letters should be either all capital, or all small. Maybe try another submission, you can do it,

    Nicely designed. Eventually try changing how the arrow points up, in this case to the other site. Eventually also at the start/end of the work or the logo may be too large in height. Definitely very good.

    Also, lastly, two things I need to correct:

    DIDPM = Deutsches Institut für Digital Performance Marketing

    Contest = 7 days, not 72 hours as stated in point 3, refer to the parent point.


    Sorry for the confusion. Looking forward to seeing some nice graphics. Please also refer to some of my previously hosted contests, I have always given nice feedback.

    Awesome. I like 1 most. Now, the red arrow, could you rotate it so it will point to the top right?



    Looks OK.

    Good approach, the letters should be more round or this looks a bit edgy, maybe complicated. Maybe also a different artwork?

    Awesome. On 1: The arrow should point to the top right at the end. So it does not look flat, however, like it is possibile that we can further increase something on the longterm. 2 also looks very nice.

    Could you remove the glossy effect?

    Please also try removing the glossy effect :).
