I had a go, using the apple logo as a guide and adding text, this is the size you requested but i can change the size.
Love the icon, not crazy about the text. Wonder if the icon can be a bit more "cartoony" - little less detail. The squiggly part I'm on the fence about. Hmm..seems I may have to split the prize - everyone has come up with some great concepts and if I could just put it all together...(Is that allowed on DP?) Thanks for the entry - I'll keep going a few and see what else turns up - but again, serious consideration. Thanks!
I think that with the number of contests that just get left with no end on the rise, It wont be a problem with anyone. There arent any official rules for DP contests anyway. -Hecky.
Thanks for the heads up Hecky. I will think about putting a concrete end date on this - got some really good entries already! @redders - thanks for the quick change! The text is much better. I'm a bit flip floppy on the logo, I thought I wanted it simpler, but now I'm not sure! Don't worry about another entry, I see your flexibility and will consider that when I make my final decision. Thanks!
Here's my entry..Went for the header instead of the logo cause I'm better with headers suprisingly.. Lol don't mind the "hosted at myupload.org" its just a auto watermarking system i put in at the site that did that..
Well, this is certainly a different twist! I guess I'm a bit wary of going "global" with the site since it's really just targeting U.S. business startups. I do however see you're very adept at graphic manipulation! Thanks for your entry!
@coolwanz very nice. not crazy about the font, but great shingle. Maybe a "thicker" font? Thanks for the entry!
Updated Logo as requested (amended to a thicker font) ............................................................................
Just so all the late entrants are aware from my earlier post: I've decided that doing a logo AND header contest is a bit confusing - so I'll limit this to a logo contest - provided the winner will be paid after a header is completed. Hope that's okay - should save you initial time and effort. This contest will end tonight at about 10pm EST. Any last entries? Thanks everyone!
