Hi all,

Ive got a domain that has sat dormant for far too long and it is time to get things going.

This is not just a regular contest. This contest is for those who would like to have some extra work and extra money on the side.

I am looking for 5 people who can do a few logos here and there and work as a private contractor for my company.

Logo design is a massave industry and I would like to take a piece of the pie. In order to do this I have to beat the competition in price without sacrificing quality.

I am confident that I can get the clients, I just need designers to serve them.

I will be offering 3 packages with the smallest being a basic two color logo for $22.00.

Your cut of this will be $17.00. Your cut of the bigger packages will obviously be greater but those prices have not yet been decided.

I only want to bring on 5 designers as the logistics of this could get out of hand if I spread it out that big.

Basically, I'll bring you the business, you bring me the designs. I'll also give you sitewide links on the site as long as you are a designer for the website.

Requirements:
1) You need to provide at least 5 samples that I can use to show your work. Watermarks are fine.
2) You must be willing to do basic two color concepts for $17.00 each.
3) You need to be able to finish a job within 3 business days (or at least provide a good concept)
4) You rights to your logo need to be handed over to the client at time of approval
5) You must have a Paypal account
6) You must be one of the top 5 entries into the following contest

If you agree to the 6 things listed above and would like to apply, then please read on and participate in the following contest.


--------------------

So to start, I will need a logo for the site. Size, color, design, images are all open to your imagination. Try not to get too big with it but dont let size hinder your abilities.

The site is located at http://www.22dollarlogos.com

Dont worry, none of the current "look" if you want to call it that will be there.

So 22dollarlogos.com needs to be prominant. Whether it is $22.00 Logos or 22dolloarlogos is up to you.

Be open, be free. The top design will win $35.00 and the logo will be used. Credit for the logo will be given to the designer which could in turn bring more business to you.

The 4 others that I think are the best will also be given a position as designer for the site and will be given work accordingly.

This may not work. You guys and gals may not be interested in the offer. That I will just have to wait and see on. I can say this... I suck at design, but kick *** at finding customers.

Together we can make some extra cash. It's your call. Either we do, or we dont.

Contest ends on 09-30-05 at midnight Pacific time. Winners will be announced on Monday, October 3rd at 9:00 AM pacific time.

Thanks in advance and I look forward to possibly working with you in the future.

Regards,
Eric

Very nice. I dig the color scheme.

One thing to think about though. If you guys participate in this, you are essentially selling your product through me.

So ask yourself what message you want to display through the logo.

I would think something that makes the low price of the product prominant may be more successful. How do you do that? Well... Im not the designer.

Comments? This is kind of a team effort here so I would like input from as many as possible.

To the two who PM'ed me. I would prefer that you speak here in the thread so that we can all have an open discussion.

Good start 170 but I think some change on the "22" could help further the agenda.

Eric

I went for something fun to start, but I guess it got outta hand...

If this is at all something you would like, then great. Although, I suspect not so I shall try to try something different when I get time.

CB, a little too dark.

170, much better. Do you think the font is readable for everyone? I like it but wonder if anyone has any problems reading it. I can see it fine but I have good vision.

I personally think it is really easy to read. This is the first thing that I make sure of when designing a logo - to make sure the font is clear. Feel free to ask around though...

Thanks,
Matt

zman: Okay, I can lighten it up easily. Will that do it? or would you like anything else changed, or even a whole new start?

Thoughts? This is a vector image.
3 variations, in the first the 22's were drawn, second and third they are text.

Something a little bit different.....



What sort of overall look, in terms of the website itself, are you going to be going for zman (i.e. simple, fun, corporate, clean and neat etc.)?
