Contest Logo Contest for Aquarium Pet shop - $40 paypal

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Dennis Chan, Jun 21, 2011.

    CONTEST END DATE: Saturday 9PM PST (Pacific Standard Time)



    Hi Everyone,

    I'm looking for a professional, fun logo for my site: http://www.breedinusa.com/shop

    I need a logo: "Breed In USA"
    with a slogan: "Where Quality Matters"


    Looking for something stylish and fun. It needs to have tranparent background (noticed my current temp logo blocking background).

    My site will primary be selling Inverts (Shrimps and crayfish). It will also sell some high end fish such as Discus.

    Example of livestock:
    http://www.wereallwet.com/the-beautiful-discus-fish/
    http://breedinusa.com/shop/12-55-medium/crystal-red-shrimp-crs-s-grade.jpg
    http://breedinusa.com/shop/10-50-medium/dwarf-orange-crayfish-cpo.jpg


    Noticed those critters are really colorful and pops out in planted green tanks.

    Either cartoon or photo is fine. I'm open to creativity.


    The height of the logo must fit into my current template. Width can vary.
    I want the logo to be either png or gif. Would also like the source project file when done.
    In terms of timeframe, I would like to pick a winner in one week. I might end contest early if there are entries I feel will work for my site and if there are no other pending entries.


    I'll also try to answer questions and provide feedback as submissions are available. Thanks and have FUN!! :)

    finally.. i made a very detailed crayfish.. its smiling.. it gives the fish character. It can be used on everything from mugs to tee shirts.. its vector. I made it so it can be used as a mascot aswell.

    And its still simple. Yet stylish and refreshing.

    Thanks guys! Great entries so far. Here are some feedback:

    slavenenco: I like the discus, but the corals are saltwater. I only sell freshwater fish/inverts. So a planted environment would be more related. Also the logo seems a bit much / crowded.

    Nora: Nice simple design.. but might the shrimp look a little like a worm/slug.

    zainadeel: Nice detail on the crayfish. I'm having a bit of trouble picturing it on my page since it's more boxy. It might leave too much empty space on my header.

    ideosmil: I had to view your logo on my small screen iphone since my work blocks the file sharing ip. The logo looks nice, but the color on the crayfish seem odd and would still like to have the slogan in there somewhere.


    So far I like zainadeel the most with Nora a close second.

    logos4all: I really like the curvy lines and the slogan. But not the shrimp.

    Thanks for the feedback, here is a logo without a shrimp.

    Do you want me to design another shrimp? or do you prefer fish?
    Thanks.

    i noticed you like curves under the logo so here is my logo with that.. ive made it into three layers so it adds style and the ball now looks like a ball of water wave.

    Awesome work everyone. I'll set an early end date for Saturday 9PM PST since I've already seen so much great work. So that means i'll pick and pay the winner in 2 days.

    So far I love logos4all's new fish bowl. Although I'm still a little iffy on the shrimp. But the overall logo is very stylish.

    Close second choice would be zainadeel's new wave design.


    But everyone else did an awesome job. I have a bunch of websites down the line so I'll definitely be doing more contest as well. This is so much fun seeing so many creative designs from everyone
