Contest Flyer Design Contest - $40 USD

I need a complete re-design of my current flyer to look more professional. Current flyer can be found here http://www.armoratl.com/tempdloadpage.html along with my logo. **Please do not base your design off this flyer in any way.**

Contest Rules:
-Winner will be selected and paid this Friday evening (November 5th)
-Payment will be made via paypal in the amount of $40 (full rights transferred to me upon payment)
-After payment I expect to receive the complete layered .psd files you used to created the flyer. This is needed so I can make small text and layout changes in the future.
-I reserve the right to cancel this contest or extend the deadline if the entries do not meet my expectations.
-I will do my best to provide feedback on all entries, note this feedback is just my personal opinion.

My requirements:
-This flyer will be used for both print and the web, needs to be CMYK 300 dpi and the dimensions of a standard sheet of paper 11.0 x 8.5
-Flyer needs to incorporate my company’s logo, you can download it above
-The 5 bullet points with corresponding text below them need to be in the flyer
-Web address, email, phone and fax needed as well
-small text section needed to do an "About Us" talking about my company
-Keep the look professional, nothing too flashy since we are a security company
-If you need to use an image from a pay service please do so. I will pay for the rights to the image if your entry wins. I’m really more concerned with the overall look than the actual images. A design where I can change the images would be ideal.

If you have any questions please ask, good luck!

 

Kindly check your inbox..

 

Entry send through PM pleas check"
and post it...

 

pm sent. please check

 

Thank you for all the submissions, I will try to respond to all of them this morning. I am going to ask that all future submission be done thru this thread instead of PM. It's easier for me to say something once than 20 times thru PM. I will also try to post some examples of flyers I have seen that I like from around the web.

 

I uploaded some examples of flyers I like to http://www.armoratl.com/tempdloadpage.html . I like the feel and layout of them, obviously the pictures and words aren't relevant to me. Use them as examples only, please don't copy them exactly.

@totalx90 - of the 3 you posted I like the last one the best. It's still not what I'm looking for though.

**For everyone submitting, please do not change or fade the logo.

 

my entry

 

300dpi, cmyk, psd file....

 

@biruhato - I like the colors and the design. Wish it had a small section for text so that I could tell the prospects a little "about us".

@atlpworld - It's ok, not real big on the color scheme and wish it had a small text section to tell the customer about my company.

 

thanx for feedback.. here is revized version ( 300DPI, CMYK) ... change in color scheme and add text section for ur company brief... feedback appreciated

 

My revised entry:

 

revised

 

comments are appreciated

 

@fritzielynn - I like what you're trying to do but something just feels a bit off. I like the about us section and how you've tried to show pictures for the main things we do. It feels a bit jumbled though. I'm not a big fan of the color scheme and the white around the logo.

@biru - I like your design. Maybe don't fade the black at the top and the bottom. The logo a little larger would be nice as well. No need revise this one. If you have any other design ideas I'd like to see them.

@surya8 - It's ok, a little similar to biru's. I don't really like the color scheme, no "about us" section, and the picture isn't my favorite. No need to put in the free estimation wording and phone number at the bottom, I'd rather see that space used for something else.

Thank you everyone for your submissions. Please don't get hung up on the wording or making it like my current flyer. Aside from the logo, about us and 5 bullet points the rest of my flyer can be changed completely. I'm really just focusing on design at this point, I can add wording myself. Thanks!

 

Contest is still open!

 

my 3rd entry:

 

Sorry everyone, I left the office early yesterday. I would like to keep the contest open until Monday in hopes that more submissions come in.

@Fritz - I really like your last entry. I can see a few small tweaks I'd make but it's not necessary to do them now.

My two favorites at this point are Biruhato and Fritz's entries. I would make small changes to each but they are both really well done.

 

here's a revision of my previous entry. here the text in the "about us" section is wrapped along the curve:


and here's another design and layout:
