Hello everyone, this is my first contest and I am in need of a BEAUTIFUL design for my new website CandiedDesigns.com My original idea was very simple and fresh, with a candied apple as the logo. With some spilled candied sauce. 1st place winner will get a $25 payment to their paypal. 3 other entries will win between $1-$5 depending on the work showcased and their effort for the contest. I will leave this contest to run for 3 days. Size of the logo/header can vary. I will post a header template to work off of shortly.
Hi Ariestoteles, This is a great try, however I am not too found of the purple, and I would rather have a real candied apple as the picture and get away from the cartoon feel. Here is a picture that I really like. http://www.dreamstime.com/candy-apple-image691339 I am honored to have you in my contest and hope you will continue trying. I have seen some of your past work and all I can say is your talent is amazing. Thanks!
Here is a header template to work off of. I love the spilled red sauce in the corner, and think it would make a nice addition to the logo/candied apple somehow. Here is a link to the full template. I am only considering using this template depending on how well the logo blends. http://www.wahmwholesale.com/CandiedDesigns/candieddesigns.html
Hi cg. I was already in the middle of creating this when I came back to read that you perfer a photograph rather than a drawing. So, I will just submit it for now and work on something tomorrow.
Hi Kia Ora! The colors are beautiful! I really want the font cleaner, with more of a reflection like web 2.0. I love the concept of the spilled sauce. I do not want the strawberry in the design, only the spilled sauce. Also, the apple is good, but I would want more detail in it, if I was to use it. Awesome job so far, I look forward to the revised version Oh and thanks for being apart of my contest
Kia Ora - The cartoony feel again is something I want to stay away from. I would rather have real graphics with a nice fresh feel. I also do not like the bubbly font. Ariestoteles - The lady eating the apple is not the direction I want to go in. I really only want a candy apple with a nice clean font. I am also looking for a photoshop effect on the font like the one found here. http://instantplrnichesites.com/ I like the reflection on the font. My vision, is a candy apple on its side, like the one found here http://www.dreamstime.com/candy-apple-image691339 with the spilled sauce under it (like the sauce on the original header. Then in a nice clean font that reads, Candied Designs Everyone keep up the good work!
fade - WOW! I really love this one, it is spot on what I want. I can't really think of anything to change. but there is still something lacking from it. I can not put my finger on it, I think it might be the lack of the sauce but I feel it. What would it look like in print? Kia Ora - I like the font, however the reflection needs to be closer to the text. I also do not like the apple, maybe try setting it a different way. This apple is alot better than the last one! oswin_mb - I really love this direction! BUT.. The apple is not candied, and it is more of a cartoon than a real candied apple. I do really like the splurt of sauce in the ,middle, it is fun and unique. Ariestoteles - I love how you created an apple between the two words. It is really cute and unique. I am not too keen on the actual apple. zmaja - WOW! I love this, my only complaint would be that the apple does not have a stick. I love how the apple hangs off of the text, it is very unique and I really like the colors and text. spyraldesigns - The text is beautiful, I really do not like the apple, it is too dull. It needs to be really shiny and DELICIOUS looking I am so thrilled to have so many Amazingly talented designers in my contest! I feel honored to get the chance to work with everyone one you. I will wait patiently for the next revisions. Thanks so much! Candace
