    Name of the application:
    runundrum (derived from the words "rush" and "conundrum")

    Description of the application:
    simple mobility smart-phone application that quickly tells you whether you can easily catch the next bus/tram/train at your favorite stop when leaving your house/work/... , or whether you have to rush to catch it, or whether it is not worth anymore trying to run for it.

    Goal of the application for the users:
    avoid running to the stop for nothing (avoid waiting at the stop after running, or avoid running but missing the bus/tram/train)

    Target group:
    daily commuters, urban people, frequent users of public transportation

    Usage of the logo:
    - within smart-phone application for iOS and Android
    - in various application stores (Apple Store, Android Marketplace)
    - on application promotion website
    - for marketing and advertisement material (online and print)

    Constraints:
    - logo should contain the application name
    - logo might have an additional icon / graphical element
    - logo must exist in two versions: rectangular with application name, square for usage as icon (e.g. for app store)
    - if the logo is in color, there must also be a version usable in black/white / as contours
    - there is no existing website or application design, therefore, there are no constraints regarding colors etc.
    - all work must be guaranteed to be free of third-party copyrights - for all chosen logos, all rights must be transferred to us
    - submissions to the forum can be done with bitmap images incl. watermarks, if required
    - the final chosen artwork must be provided in a vector graphics format
    - deadline is on 2012/11/09 12:00 CET

    Payment conditions:
    - per set of logos (normal version, icon version, black/white version) chosen for further usage, we will pay USD 50
    - payment will be done via PayPal
    - information for closing the deal (PayPal identity, contact details, final vector graphics logo) will be exchanged via private messages on the forum

    Submissions:
    Please post all submissions directly to the forum so they are visible to all contestants and do not send them via private message.

    @availpranav: thank you very much for your fast response to our contest! We'd like to come back to you with the following feedback:

    we like:
    - the use of a bus in the logo (even though the app will also support tramways and even trains)
    - some additional graphical element like the light bulb (we could also imagine something like a crystal ball, an hour glass, a genie in a bottle, ...)
    - the font of the writing
    - the simple, 2d shape of the logo (simplifies the usages in a contour-style only, even though we're also open to more complex examples with perspective, etc.)

    we would prefer:
    - a more "landscape" like orientation logo (wider than higher), e.g. with the writing next to or integrated into the icon (this might require a more narrow font to keep the width in reasonable boundaries)
    - see "runundrum" written all in lowercase letters

    what we cannot yet comment (as we'd like to see more alternative submissions first)
    - the colors

    @availpranav: thank you for your revised submission, but we actually prefer your first submission. We prefer the font and the icon of the first submission over the second one. Also having the name completely inside the graphic element we consider difficult. Maybe you want to go back to the first submission and try to keep the points we liked in our first comment (font, bus, ...), but try to change the ones we did not like so much (orientation, all lowercase)? Thank you a lot for your effort!
