    $30 is guaranteed to the winner, but if I see something I really like I am happy to pay a bonus!

    I am starting a vintage / retro inspired clothing line for women, and I am seeking a creative logo with a vintage flair.

    For examples of retro logo styles please look at the below link:

    http://www.ectomachine.com/blog/inspiring-vintage-logo-design/

    For creativity that I desire, please see this next link:

    http://www.smashingapps.com/2011/05...go-designs-with-negative-space-technique.html


    Ideally I would like a logo that incorporates elements from both links above, something creative, yet vintage.

    The name of my website and slogan are as follows:

    rtld.jpg

    I am open to both color scheme, as well as size, as the site has not yet been designed, so feel free to do what you think is best.

    The contest will last 48 hours, and I will pay instantly via PayPal.

    Thanks!

    PSD or Vector, either is fine, I just want something to look good, creative, etc, I am not limited by format, such as PSD or Vector, it is your choice.

    Thanks

    Hello everyone, and thank you all in advance for your great efforts and entry.

    CB-Gfx - Nice work, and I will continue to consider this entry, although I feel it lacks some of the creative elements of tying the name together with the slogan, but it is indeed a nice entry.

    xDemevenx - the entry looks a bit like a baseball

    thetrashpan - I get that you are trying to show a woman in the background, but aside from that it just does not convey our message.

    natali77 - Great use of font! Very stylish as well, but due to the uniqueness of the name, I need to try tie in the logo with the slogan so to speak, I will send you a message with more details.

    metalbehemoth - Very well done! I love the creativity with the logo, I will send you a message with some minor tweaks.

    thetrashpan - sorry, this just does not hit the mark.

    T.J. Detwiler - Great vintage, retro look, I really like it, and I will send you a quick message about some tweaks.

    ** Update - I just saw pano4e4ka's entry. Well done pano4e4ka. I really like what you have come up with, it looks very tailored and it is creative. My only concern relates to the font used. I think the font is nice, but it is a little hard to see. I am familiar with the font but I cant see the double lines on the letters o, l, and d, it seems a bit pushed together and could be sharper. Also, maybe you could have it within a circular frame, or a banner, some way to frame it.

    Great work everyone, I look forward to your continued entries / revisions, and I am confident we will have a winner soon!

    I have adjusted your concerns regarding the font even before, but it probably didn't work very well:p, I added shadow before, now I have made bigger space inside the letter, I hope it looks better now:)

    NK Graphic Designs - Nice work, the end result appears like old school vegas, which is nice, but not really the look we are trying to capture.

    Razi3l - I am not sure what look you intended to generate, but it is not coveying any particular message, and seems a little messy. Although, there is an artistic element, and I do appreciate your efforts.

    pano4e4ka - thank you for your additional entries. Unfortunately, it appears that I am unable to communicate to you what changes I would require, as your revisions fail to address my concerns. I will try once again. Working from this image: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=55129&d=1312471731&thumb=1 there needs to be more space between the words that are inside of the border and the border itself. The border is almost touching parts of the name and slogan so there should be more room. Also, the font is nice, but again it may need to be bigger, or there needs to be more room allocated to each letter as it seems pushed together thus I am unable to see the space within the letters. For example, the letter d just before .com, it just looks like a normal letter d you can't really see that there are two bars that make up the letter, just like the letter "l" etc.

    *** IMPORTANT - to all involved - the pay has just been increased to $50 or more (possible bonus) for the winner. This is a creative logo so I am going to raise the pay. Thanks!
