Graphic Design Contests

**woosh** · 11-21-2007, 11:28 PM

What exactly are the size requirements the link to the posted ad isn't working or is it just me lol

**Gx3 Grafix** · 11-22-2007, 09:55 AM

It's not just you woosh, lol. That part of the forum is turned off right now. They are working on some things to try and make it better. I believe you can go to the website to get an idea of the amount of space they have to work with on the website version of the logo. If you google Motorbilia Auctions it takes you right to it.

Happy Thanksgiving!

with requested revisions...

*as we talked about previously, if this design is chosen I will create new cars to match the exact colours and logo stickers. Right now, it's still a concept

I really like this last design GX3... though it seems a bit Busy for a logo & more like an ad copy promoting gear that has the company logo on it.

it's probably just me, GREAT job though, Very slick!

WOOSH!!! Glad to see you. The dimensions were listed originally at 358 px wide x 110px high. With GX3's design I am now open to anything. I will make it work if it is awesome. We will want a LARGE EPS file at the end that we will scale down for the logo, but we will want a big file for print. I would like to announce a winner on Monday so if you can get your submissions in by then it would be appreciated. Thanks!

Happy Thanksgiving to all .... I am stuffed already here on the East Coast & now that the families are all nestled in their triptafanic slumber state, I snuck out to the workshop with my buddy to drink some beers and give our own thanks. Hope everyone has a great day/night.

Cheers for the invite

I whizzed this up late tonight but am happy to do revisions over the weekend if needed

nice to be back lol after a long holiday....

I have kept the background black as it draws the eye to the logo and ties in with the present site layout but any requests ask away.

**Capt Quirk** · 11-23-2007, 06:48 AM

I'm coming into this a bit late, so how long before you decide? I started working on another logo contest, and they chose a winner as I was finishing up a design.

Hello Flordidian. Please see Pin's last comment to answer your question.

I agree Scorpion. I misunderstood what the request was.

**Capt Quirk** · 09:23 PM

I think I should have put more into it, but with a house full of kids... Anyways, less is more?

**thetoxicmind** · 09:18 AM

Let me know what you think..

**thetoxicmind** · 11-26-2007, 05:55 AM

GX3 Grafix!!

Congratulations GX3, you were able to come closest to our vision and your work is truly superb. You have been a pleasure to deal with during the process. PM has been sent in order to finalize transaction!

In 2nd Place:
.
Woosh
.
I really like this logo as it is simple yet very effective. For some odd reason I love the idea of broken wings. Maybe it's the punk rocker in me, but unfortunately we ran out of time to make any edits or changes. Glad to see you're back though Woosh. I should have another contest up shortly. hint: identity element = band for an organized nation for change.

In third place, ScorpionAgency. Really got me excited with the car logo idea, unfortunately, like woosh we just didn't have time to work on the logo to maximize the look. Definetely a creative logo, which if more time had been available could of become something pretty cool.

Thanks to everyone for your entries, as they are all appreciated and reviewed for what they are as well as what they could become. There is some great talent on these boards and hopefully you all will remain a source for people like me with too much on their **** pallette to handle every aspect of a clients wishes.

Regards,

Kieth aka Pin

Thanks.

I keep hearing 'where are all of the designers'. I'm new here so I wouldn't know but the few that I've talked to have just been busy and I heard somewhere that if the CH raise the $ more designers would join the competition but that's just what I heard

**woosh** · 11-26-2007, 04:59 PM

Hehe thanks Keith i'm one of the old farts here now haha
