    We need an original logo for a header graphic to be used by torontodrywallexperts.com which will be providing drywall installation services.


    Here are the requirements:

    • Logo must be completely original and have a clean, professional look.

    • Logo must include the text "Toronto Drywall Experts"

    • Logo must be created using the .PSD file http://visibleonlinemarketing.com/shared/tde_header.psd where there's a text placeholder for the logo.

    • Color scheme and size are open, as long as the background and size of the tde_header.psd are left unchanged.

    • Logo should be delivered in .PSD format with layers.

    • If you use special fonts, we will need the fonts and all layers to the .PSD file (eps) upon completion (in case we would ever need to add a word or a tagline).

    • Payment of $20 USD will be paid by Paypal, no other payment method is currently available.

    • The winner will give up all rights to the logo upon payment.

    • Post your designs here please - NO PMs.

    @good designer:

    Thanks for your entry.

    You did a great job with your text layout choices. I like it very much!

    I am not thrilled with the graphics: it feels too complex and too cartoon-like. I would prefer something more simple.

    @Sarahmclaughlanx:

    Thanks for entering.

    I feel your text needs more contrast. It blends to well with the background. Adding color may be an idea.

    Great revision. Thanks! I like it.

    The only minus point is that the graphics doesn't indicate "drywall".

    @good designer:

    Thanks for your quick revisions! I like your last two entries very much. The logos and text are a bit too big and spill over in the top area.

    I'll collect further feedback from my client tonight.

    @login.arvind:

    Thanks for your entry. Great design!

    You did a great job with the logo. I find the text style a bit too formal.

    I'll collect more feedback from my client tonight.

    Last night my client said that, so far, he's not yet seeing a clear winner. He liked the bottom logo in post #10 (login.arvind) and the text layout from post #5 (good designer).

    He mentioned that many logos look too much like logos for painters not drywallers. Drywallers don't use brushes, rather tools like this: http://www.house-painting-info.com/images/drywall-tools.jpg

    @XXXdesigner:

    Thanks for entering.

    You are a good listener! Your entry is definitely in the right direction. I find your logo too complex, both in design and too many colors. I also think it looks too much like a painter.

    @Natali77:

    Thanks for your entry.

    You did a great job keeping the design simple. If you changed the brush to a drywall tool, I think your entry could do very well.
