Giveaways/Contest Blog $40 Ends Jan 17th

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Cowboytf, Jan 15, 2010.

    This is a blog that will host giveaways and contests.

    Name of Blog: Best Bloggy Giveaways
    Blog URL: http://bestbloggygiveaways.com
    Color Choices: 331F1E and 7C9A4D are what I have BUT they seem a little bland so I am open to other color choices if your creative juices start flowing!! :)
    Font: Pretty open as long it's readable. I sometimes like when two different fonts are used but again, I'm open to your creativeness.

    File Requirements:
    -Header Size is 960x150 BUT main part of logo should be towards the left side of the header, up to half the header size. So you can go up to 480 I believe without it interfering with the ad space. See site and you'll understand. Just ignore lame temp header that is currently there. (The current header size is 960x100 but I need it taller which is why I'm requesting a height of 150) Hopefully that all makes sense.
    -PSD
    -Layered and grouped

    Logo must be unique and not contain any copyrighted material. Do not copy anyone else's work please.

    Winner will get $40 via PayPal. Contest ends at 10pm CST on Sunday, January 17th.

    P.S. I don't participate much in this forum, however, I want you to know that you can trust me. You can find my social media footprint on twitter, facebook, and then some...just look me if you need to. I'm known as ACowboysWife

    Thanks so much!

    @JMDesigns It's just a little plain...would like it to stand out more.

    @bodil4o I like the chocolate color more. I think the font shows up better on the chocolate and think the font needs to be bigger..or stand out a bit more. The presents are a little too holidayish to me..meaning red and green presents. Most everyone uses those two colors when relating to gifts. I do like the 'free' on the tag. I like where you are going with it...

    I really like the chocolate. Do you guys think that I need a different color than green?? Maybe green is too much of a cheesy color?

    I'm new at giving feedback so I apologize if I suck at it. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings because I know you guys work hard on them.

    Hey bodil4o,

    I still think I like the dark chocolate or maybe not the lines........I'm not sure what it is yet. I've been thinking all day on it. I don't know what direction to give you at the moment.

    So sorry, we haven't been home.

    Would you mind playing it with it a bit? Maybe a different symbol would help. I'm just not creative which is why I'm here in the first place so I honestly don't know exactly what I want......

    If you want to continue to make the changes for me, once it's finalized, I'll pay you. If you don't want to continue, please let me know.

    LOVE the stuff coming out of the open present for sure! Make the present bigger cause it's kinda small. Make the money, actual money or at least the green color. I'm not sure what that is beside the present so either clarify it or completely get rid of it.

    The overcall coloring is starting to look boring to me. I was in another thread and saw this beautiful blue http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx154/Leo_Viscus_Astrum/Digital Point Projects/Fly.png Can you incorporate this color somehow? Just so I can see a couple color versions.

    Make "Giveaways" a little bigger. And the "A" in aways, needs to be lowercase "a"

    After that, we'll see what it looks like.

    LOVE that blue:) Can you add some more small products to look like they are overflowing from the box trickling towards the word giveways? Does that make sense?? LOL

    That hole there is bothering me so I feel like it needs a little something.

    Or, instead of a present, it could be a girl opening her mailbox with lots of goodies coming out..LOL Just throwing stuff out there.

    I will be here tomorrow because I have to go to bed now (school tomorrow etc.) and I will create some more variants.

    I don't know about the girl and mailbox idea - I might try it tomorrow too.
    Otherwise I was thinking of putting some more money and items under the "BestBloggy" or something like this.
    Also an Idea is out of the present box to be some "flying" objects (that will look like they are really enhanced/gooogle translate/ (I meanth like they are really speeded and captured somewhere, while flying).
    I will try these ones tomorrow ;)

    I think that's perfect!

    So with the final header, the date and rss stuff will be gone I assume? And I get all the files (psd, etc).....so what's next?
