Graphic Design Contests

**mikesilvia** · 08:11 PM

Looking for a new logo/graphic to go on T Shirts for my sports card site:

sportscardforum.com

The theme is sports card related. I want Sports Card Forum and/or SCF and the sentence "The Ultimate in Sports Card Trading and Discussion" and SportsCardForum.com some where. Here is my banner from my site and some ideas built for me in the past to give you an idea. Be creative!

feedback appreciated...

Hello, I'm new.

This is my design. The original design on the left and the colors reversed on the right just in case you want it that way instead.

I will be submitting my entry soon.

MattC,

It seems very faded. Can you brighten it up? It will be going on a T Shirt.

MrNova,

Please replace the soccer part with a more popular US sport like basketball, hockey, etc.

cvb,

I don't think that would look good on a T Shirt!

**MattC** · 01-30-2009, 03:33 PM

i think it looks faded because of the way i linked the image (the original was 1.49mb so i had to scale it down). [IMG]file:///C:/Users/Matt/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot-4.jpg[/IMG]tell me if this looks better. I am not exactly sure what you meant by faded, but if you elaborate a bit, i would be happy to make changes

Ok. I don't see anything in the rules about not allowed to have a 2nd try so here you go again:

Do you think this one is better?

**mikesilvia** · 06:19 PM

cvb,

The first one is growing on me, but the second one is even better. Keep them both, but can you try to add hockey and NASCAR as another option?

Also, you have three sports above the text. Maybe try the pyramid structure you have with 5 sports?

**cvb** · 11:31 PM

alright, 5 sports cards on top of the logo instead of 3.
i put a border around them because with 5 cards squished together it was getting hard to tell that they were cards

**MrNova** · 01-30-2009, 09:38 PM

I thought I'd go in a whole new direction, feedback please.

**katesrobyn** · 01-30-2009, 09:48 PM

I 'll post ... in a while ........

cvb,

Thanks for the changes!

MrNova,

Very nice!

katesrobyn,

Can you make it so it is baseball, hockey, basketball, racing, and NFL Football? There are no skate cards or equestrian.

**MrNova** · 01-31-2009, 06:58 PM

Thanks Mike, would you suggest I change or add anything?

I have selected cvb as the winner. I will be giving him an extra $50 because I will be taking his 3 sport, 5 sort and 5 other single sport variants of his design. Thanks to all those that participated!

**cvb** · 02-02-2009, 09:54 PM

thanks for the choice!

I want to say to everyone this is my first time entering one of these contests and I am excited that I won. I've been an artist for years but I have never tried to do something like this before. It gives me confidence that I can actually try to do this for a living some day soon. So I am making plans for that possibility.
