    Hi All,

    I already have a logo that was designed for my blog, but I need it revised. I really like it, but I have been told the headphones look out of place/they don't match the ears and/or they blend in too much with the face/color distinction would help/ etc. Basically, I want to improve it and I would like your assistance/ideas! I can send you the Adobe Illustrator file as well.

    The blog is about Tokyo nightlife, specifically clubbing.

    I'd also like to color the shades, on the left start with blue (like the blue in Tokyo Sky Tree), and gradient it to purple on the right (like the purple in Tokyo Sky Tree). Color examples:

    The deadline is Sunday at 11:59 pm (Japan time).

    Hi Raco,

    I like where you are going with the colors, but honestly, none of the designs above addressed or resized the headphones (or really adhered to make original request and color).

    For now, the contest is closed. In this case, without any entires that actually followed the steps, I cannot declare a winner/runner-up. I will post another contest shortly.

    Does your site currently have any colors associated with it? If so, I would try to incorporate those colors into the logo. I saw one of the samples provided above and I think the logo would work great without any gradients. Also, just to look more cleaner, I would suggest cleaning up the circle, unless that is what you were going for. I would also adjust the fonts so they don't touch the edge of the circles. Good luck!
