Graphic Design Contests

Hey

I need a logo for my new free webhosting company. I'm tempted to try and bribe you with free hosting, but somehow don't think that'll work...

Anyway, I need a logo. There's no huge hurry, which could be one of the reasons I'm being a bit tight. So if it's really good I'll give you $25. Aren't I so generous?

I don't actually have a colour scheme yet. In fact I don't even have a website yet. I think grey would be a good main colour, as well as a slightly darker colour, like red or blue. It wouldn't have to be too complex, and should be brandable.

The site name is "1FreeHost.net". The .net is necessary. Please do remember to watermark your designs.

Although I may choose a winner soon, I might not be able to pay for it immediately. However, I obviously won't request the final design until payment, and I won't be more than a month or two delayed.

Oh, and before any of you ask, yes the site is registered! Lol, I have already had it reg'd but the DNS is still updating (at time of writing) so it's no use registering the domain yourself!

Heres my first atempt:

Feedback would be nice

**brokensoul2271** · 07:25 AM

oops... Sorry got it wrong already. Will just go and makle it 1freehost instead of 1freehosting...

EDIT: Fixed it ^^^

Spud, I like the design but not the background. Look's good.

Should have mentioned previously that I want the logo to reflect a good, solid hosting company. Like some of the bigger hosts, eg. 1 & 1.

AguaJonno, That's up to you. Nothing to small, nothing to big. It can always be resized. I'd suggest a rectangle shape though because of the text.

Johncyber, don't think that's quite right for my host, as it doesn't reflect it being a good, solid company. My apologies for not mentioning this before.

Brokensoul2271, I like that, but again, I'm not 100% sure it's right for my site. Again, my apologies for not being more specific about what the logo needs to reflect.

Thanks very much for your efforts so far; you're all a lot more talented than me!

So something simple and easily recognisable.. Will give it another try... Does the contest end when you've found one that you like?

Had a few minutes so I knocked this up.

I've never made a logo before, but I thought I'd give it a try. This should be resizable to anything without ruining quality. Colors or anything else can be easily changed.
