New $75 banner and logo contest for 10,000 uniques per day site

I tried a contest recently and it was really disappointing.

No one apparently read my detail requirements.

When I picked a winner, they were banned by the site and when they contacted me outside of this forum, I tried to work with them to finish the banner and they couldn't provide me with a basic 3d font for the domain but some monstrosity that I could not even barely read. I am done with them. They did not fulfil their part of the deal.

So I am posting again and hoping to get better replies. I am hoping that a larger amount will entice more entries.

The new contest is for $75 and will go until October 2, 2008 and I can choose a winner at any time to work with to finalize the logo and banner and make payement and delivery.

The site gets close to 10,000 visitors per day and many tens of thousands of page views between the two domains that it will appear on.

Here are the specs from the original contest modified slightly for hopeful clarification of needs.

WAITING FOR COMMENTS

 

Tightwad so far although I do not get the letters in the logo being chopped off in appearance, maybe that can be different. I was hoping for some more 3d but you are closing in on the web 2.0 a little and your image considered placement on the site well.

Chelsea, I have to have a logo too and I like the domain colors but they need some effect in shading or something - or the 3d I mentioned in specs.

Jesica, the 3d would have to be popping out and not in and the logo you used is too simple for my tastes.

Thanks for the submissions so far and I hope to get many more. There is plenty of time for new submissions.

 

I will have something if you can give me 24hours.

Here is the preview of the site



Feedback Appreciated!

 

mnuismnu - that is very appealing, "contest info" should "contests" and "info" separately in small text, You are in lead or close to lead. can you make the NET gold color to more of a pastel light shaded color. microphone can be more Gold so that both NET and microphone are same color. Just not sure about microphone icon.

thibaut123, sure, will look forward to submission

campolar, that is very appealing, the".com" would need to come down for me; I am going to say that I am not wanting the VN as the logo for you and others; maybe just something with the V or some other creative logo like some of the other submissions but I do like the colors and the logo background sheathe, that is nice, maybe some other logo in that background would work better.

Grouse - nice lettering but I am going to have to say no to the blinking aspect although it is cool and I could see using it eelsewhere on site, also need a creative logo different than VN, that is current look on site, want away from that although some bursting V was appealing at one time.

tsoft, great logo - can i see a version of that with smaller text, maybe diff font and in different color than other colors already used, not blue. Also can I see a version like others where text is all along the bottom - i like that you went on the side because I was thinking if that would be better. I don;t know about the .com but am thinking about it although it is growing on me. You are in lead or close to lead.

chlopzmazur - I need a creative logo that you come up with - the lettering and letter colors are appealing

Nope. I haven't seen the entries, actually, when I made mine (just read the brief). I can changed it to avoid an issue with you, though.
